Fierce

Large predatory snakes like pythons generally don't want to have anything to do with anyone else, and particularly not kitties. Their coloring makes them great at hiding, and their smooth, scaly skin lets them slither soundlessly through the grass.

Reactions

•Bite: Causes one Owie.
•Hisss: Warns enemies. Each kitty must pass a Fierce check or run away.
•Venom/Squeeze: The kitty must make a Fierce check or be knocked out from the venom/being squeezed.

Variants

Reuse this foe’s stats for other creatures:

Mods: For sea turtles and big octopi, replace Venom/Squeeze and Hiss with Deep Dive (the kitty must make a Fierce check or be carried down into the depths by the creature). For large aggressive fish like sturgeon and muskies, and for big squid, also reduce Cunning to 4.
Alts: Use the songbird mod for small snakes.

Adventure ingredients

It's Out There: Snakes have been known to silently stalk their targets for hours, even days on end. A creature worried that a snake is out to get them could come to the kitties for help.
