## Concepts

### Paragon Monsters

Like two monsters, but one. Like a monster with two torsos but only two legs. A good option for leaders or bosses. Give them *Paragon Fortitude* and either *Paragon Exhaustion*, for those who will get weaker at each stage or *Paragon Fury* for those who get stronger when beat up.

***Paragon Fortitude.*** The creature has multiple pools of hit points, each of which is tracked separately. All damage and healing must be completely applied to only one pool. When a pool is reduced to zero, all ongoing conditions and effects affecting the creature end. Once a pool is reduced to zero, that pool cannot receive any healing until after a long rest. If all hit of the point pools are reduced to zero, the creature is killed.
<br>
***Paragon Exhaustion.*** The creature may take one complete turn in each round of combat for each hit point pool it has above zero and receives one reaction between each of its turns. When a pool of hit points has been reduced to zero, the creature loses one turn each round thereafter. The creature determines initiative normally for its first turn, though it gains advantage on the roll. Each subsequent turn is inserted immediately after any one PC’s turn in the initiative order.
<br>
***Paragon Fury.*** The creature may take one additional turn in each round of combat for each of its hit point pools that have been reduced to zero. The creature determines initiative normally for its first turn, though it gains advantage on the roll. Each subsequent turn the creature gains is inserted immediately after any one PC’s turn in the initiative order.

### Pocket Clay Golem

This 25 kg construct is fabricated in two parts: the *doll*, a small, detailed representation of a natural creature, and the *vessel*, a ornate closed urn. With a successful ritual a spirit is bound to the doll, who is magically deposited into a pocket dimension inside the urn. When the urn is opened the doll is summoned, who appears next to the urn with a high pitched noise and starts to follow its master's orders.

## Headhunter

**Superlative Stalker.** Headhunters are widely regarded as
the best bounty hunters available. Usually preferring to
bring back targets dead than alive, they are skilled trackers
and swordmasters.

Their name is derived from their deadly vorpal strike, a
techinque developed to ensure the headhunter is able to
bring back proof of a kill and where the term "A price on
their head." comes from.

**Trained Trackers.** Able to discern a wide variety of
information from tracks, such as the likely number of
passengers on a wagon. A headhunter uses this
information to plan an attack.

A headhunter will often use bribery, intimidation and
deceit to get to their target. Although their default tactics
usually involve surprise, shock and awe. A headhunter will
attack, kill or incapacitate their target and dimension door
to safety with the head or unconcious body.

### Kobold Holethrower

---

The [kobold](https://www.reddit.com/r/monsteraday/comments/7ihkpg/day_205_kobold_holethrower/)'s love of traps and ambush tactics are well known. Some enterprising kobolds saw fit to create their own kinds of magic, and thus the holethrower was created. The kobold holthrower is about as well read as a kobold can be, doing their best to study stolen and found tomes for magic secrets. In doing so, they have developed the ability to temporarily manipulate the very environment around them, twisting it to form temporary traps and pits to trap the targets of their ambushes, or to waylay those who have escaped from other traps.

***A Particular Set of Skills.*** Their particular kinds of magic capitalises on their victims being in close proximity to one another, at the bottom of a pit or otherwise. They can char or pierce the bodies of their enemies with magic, knock their enemies into pits, or simply defend themselves, proving themselves both very resourceful, and near invaluable as part of a kobold ambush party.

>
> ***Create Hole (Recharge 6).*** The kobold instantly creates a hole in the ground at a point it can see within 30 feet of it. The hole has a radius of 5 feet and is 20 feet deep, and each creature in that area when the hole appears must make a DC 13 Dexterity saving throw.  
>    On a successful save, a creature can choose to move 5 feet back or to the side of the hole. A creature that chooses not to move suffers the consequences of a failed saving throw.  
>    On a failed save, a creature falls into the hole, is prone, and takes 5 (2d4) piercing damage from jagged debris, as well as the damage for a normal downward fall.  
>    The hole remains for 3 (1d6) rounds, at which time the ground at the bottom of the hole decompresses and raises back up to ground level, carrying any creature still in the hole harmlessly up with it.  
>    This ability has a 50% chance of failure when used on an area containing worked material such as cobblestone, and automatically fails when used on an area containing manufactured material such as glass.

## Minotaur

Minitaurs, or mini minotaurs, are a small but industrious race, capable of great feats of strength despite their diminutive stature.

On their own, a minitaur behaves similarly to an ordinary minotaur, however, when they swarm they are able to form the mighty-taur, where tens or hundreds of minitaurs link arms, legs, horns, and axes, then combine their efforts to fell even mighty foes.

### Orc Deathsworn

*"I remember the look in its eyes when we killed it, there
was no fear, just a determined fury. After it died, it just kept
going, taking another half dozen soldiers to the grave with
it."*
<br>     *- Edwyrd Advaris, Infantry Commander*

<br>

The [deathsworn](https://www.reddit.com/r/monsteraday/comments/82hqri/day_267_orc_deathsworn/) epitomise the berserker lifestyle, adorning
themselves in tattoos that represent their victories. As a
result of extreme physical training the deathsworn are lean
and athletic.

**Oath of Death.** The deathsworn get their name from the
oath they make to their deity, which is usually Gruumsh,
but can also be Ilneval or Bahgtru depending on their tribe.
The oath of death is a promise that they will find a
glorious death on the battlefield. Once they have found their
moment of glory, it is said that the gods themselves
empower their rage, allowing them to ignore mortal
wounds and sew death and destruction into the battlefield.

**High Berserkers.** The orc hordes are home to many
barbarians and berserkers, but none hold the esteem of the
deathsworn. The deathsworn know no fear, never cower on
the battlefield and embrace death and glory as equals.

Tribes revere the deathsworn, for they are easily angered
and their rage is difficult to satiate. Many berserkers
attempt to join their ranks, few succeed.

## Ogres

### Lechugre

Lechugre, or mountain ogre, are easily confused with ogres and hill giants, but are quite different in a variety of ways. Physically their feet are flat and round, much like an elephant. Lechurges have a
horn atop their head and large ears.

**Dairy Diet.** Surprisingly the lechugre are actually
vegetarians, subsisting on a diet of sour milk and plants. A
lechugre will kidnap cows, goats and new mothers to
gather a constant supply of fresh milk. It then lets this
milk spoil and sour before consuming it with whatever
local fauna it prefers.

Some more discerning lechugres become amateur
cooks, refining delicate salads and turning milk to
cheeses and yogurts. The most successful of these
enterprising lechurges opened its own tavern with the
now famous Seesaar salad.

**Troublesome Neighbours.** Not the brightest around,
these loners often get themselves into trouble by taking
livestock and mothers from local villages. Lechurges live
in nearby forests, mountains and hills, often with pet cows
and goats as company.

Sometimes local farmers and merchants placate the
lechurge by offering it a regular supply of spoiled and sour
milk and in return happy lechugres protect the villages and
towns in their times of need, although really it is just
protecting its source of free food.

attack on the same turn, the target takes an extra 10

must succeed on a DC 14 Strength saving throw or
be knocked prone. The lechugre becomes prone after
making a horn attack this way.

poisoned target can repeat the saving throw at the
end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on

## Tortles

### Tortle Snapper

The snapper is a subrace of tortle more adapted to a marine environment than normal tortles. Broader than a regular tortle and with larger, lumpier shells that are occasionally covered with a few barnacles. Their head is larger, with a vicious, powerful beak that it uses to crush crustaceans and other hard shelled sea creatures. As comfortable diving for food underwater as they are on land, a common sight off of the coast of the Snout of Omgar is a bale of snapper tortles hunting, their shells visibly bobbing above the surface before they disappear, diving towards their prey.

Snapper dislike of civilisation and their aggressive nature means they are rarely welcomed by the other tortles. However, there is a colony of snapper tortles that live atop the shell of the great tortoise **Akupara**.
Here they have their own district, and fill a niche role as a city guard, where their intimidating nature and powerful bite are usually enough to discourage any violent behaviour, as the risk of losing a hand or other appendage permanently is enough to make most visitors think twice before starting trouble. These snapper tortles believe that they have found a better way of living than the more rural snapper tortles, that they have found a natural niche for their race and with it a certain pride in their ability to keep the peace in the colony.

Unlike other tortles, the snapper tortles cannot retreat
into their shell, their oversized head preventing them from retracting it fully into the shell. This may go some way to
explain why they are more aggressive than other tortles, as
they lose the ability to hide from dangerous situations.

The snapper tortle packs don't naturally have true leaders, their bad-tempered nature making it impossible to follow a
tortle just because the majority have agreed that that is how things should be. Where leadership is required, snapper tortles will naturally turn to the biggest, meanest, most aggressive tortle who will dominate <br>the pack and give direction<br> when it is required.<br> However this position is<br> only as firm as the<br> strength of the pack<br> leader. A challenge<br> can come any time<br> if it is seen to be <br>weak. The snapper<br> tortles naturally<br> dislike the role<br> of leader, seeing<br> it more as a<br> necessity<br> when things<br> need doing.
