Notes | "Shoggoths are iridescent black blobs of protoplasm that can take on any desired shape. A shoggoth has a semitransparent outer layer or mantle, which looks gelatinous but is actually cool and dry to the touch; within, organules (which look like clusters of black bubbles) can be transformed into any organ the shoggoth may need. Eyes, pale green and bioluminescent, drift out from within the organules, see for a time, then sink back out of sight.They speak in a language of musical tones. In combat, a shoggoth spreads itself over an area of one-tenth its SIZ in square meters and may attack anyone within that space, using its Grip ability to seize opponents in its pseudopods. Opponents may attempt to avoid being seized with an Evade Roll; if seized, they may try to break free using an opposed Brawn Roll. Once the shoggoth succeeds in gripping an opponent, it will inflict damage every round by squeezing and tearing until the opponent escapes or dies. When shoggoths enter combat, they coat themselves with a fluid they call “moisture-of-war”, which is toxic to most beings (see Shoggoth Moisture-of-War, p. 44). It is also very slippery, and adds two Difficulty Levels to any attempt to seize a shoggoth." Weird of Hali pg 124 |
