FEATURES

Stifling Pheromones - Passive: A PC who makes an action roll within Very Close range of the Rust Eater must succeed on an Instinct Reaction Roll or mark a Stress.

Rust Touch - Passive: The Rust Eater’s carapace is coated in a corrosive acid that pits and rusts metal. When a PC within Melee range of the Rust Easter succeeds on an attack against it with a metal weapon, reduce the weapon’s damage die by one step (for example, d8 to d6 or d6 to d4). If a weapon’s damage die is reduced below a d4, the weapon crumbles into rust. The Rust Eater then devours the rust pile and clears a HP.
