scraggle

Though similar in stature to boggles, these scraggly, furry, mountain dwelling critters don't share a gift for complex language. Their primary tactic for survival is stealing skrokwing eggs, one of Eem's most daring feats. A single egg feeds a warren of scraggles for months, a testament to their incredible ingenuity and cooperation. Scraggles work together by climbing on top of each other and linking to form sophisticated living structures like ladders, towers and even free-roaming scraggle giants. If skrokwing eggs aren't in season, scraggles have been known to attack passing travelers to steal their food.

Names: Rgg, Fzzwk, Grx, Pfft

abilities

Scraggles United

Scraggles may link themselves into forms greater than the sum of their parts to create ladders, bridges and objects to perform a task.

Giant Scraggle

A Horde may form a Huge scraggle that inflicts 1d10 Dread and has Courage equal to the number of scraggles. The giant scraggle loses individual scraggles as it suffers Dread, and the giant collapses at 5- Courage.

Greedy Mitts

On a 9+ Hit, may steal food from a target's inventory.

vulnerabilities

Scraggles are highly ticklish. And despite being accomplished skrokwing egg thieves, fear skrokwings and other large predatory birds. They scatter at the first sound of a skrokwing's screech, and large shadows in the sky make them jittery.

combat

Scraggles coordinate to form bridges, towers, ladders, shields, and giants to fight off their enemies. They use their mountainous surroundings strategically to gain high ground and alter the battlefield by knocking over trees and boulders. If merely hungry, they are content to steal food and flee back to their warren.
