Round jellyfish with long goose-like necks and heads that glow with vibrant colors on the waves at night. Using their glittering light to lure prey, they sting with their poison beak, which swells their victims so badly that they float to the surface. Resourceful fishers follow the glow of bubblegeese to find their daily catch.

abilities
Bubble Sting
On a 9+ Hit, the target becomes POISONED and one of their arms or legs swells like a balloon for hours. This makes the target rise to the surface of the water, and all attempts to resist it suffer Disadvantage. Additionally, items held in a ballooned hand are dropped.
Bubble Storm
Once every Combat, may create a storm of bubbles by violently spinning their tendrils. All Close and Nearby characters are BLINDED and ranged Attacks against the bubblegoose suffer Disadvantage.
vulnerabilities
Bubblegeese fear narwhalruses and other whales who prey on them. They are incredibly frightened of whale songs. Bubblegeese are also highly allergic to asparagoose pee, which coincidentally cures the poison of their sting.
combat
Bubblegeese sting hands and feet to incapacitate their foes and force them to the water's surface. Anyone incapacitated in this way is then targeted by all bubblegeese in a group frenzy. When surrounded, they create a storm of bubbles to either protect themselves in battle or to escape.
crafting
