Giant Maggot
Level 0Attacks
Abilities
Trigger The giant maggot takes damage
Effect The giant maggot regurgitates its rancid, foul meal. All creatures in a 5-foot emanation must succeed at a DC 16 fortitude save or become Sickened 1 (or Sickened 2 on a critical failure). The giant maggot can't use Regurgitation again until it spends at least an hour feeding on a corpse.
Requirements The giant maggot has Grabbed a creature
Effect The giant maggot deals (1d8+2)[slashing] damage to the grabbed creature as it chews the creature's flesh (DC 16 reflex save).
Giant flies lay their eggs on the bodies of larger monsters or livestock. When they hatch, these eggs release squirming maggots the size of humans, ravenous young who voraciously consume any flesh in the immediate vicinity—typically starting with the body upon which they were born.
Giant flies are pony-sized insects that have massive compound eyes and bodies bristling with short, stiff hairs. Their lairs are notorious for the rotting meat they stockpile to lay their eggs in. Their maggot dens are also prime breeding grounds for virulent diseases.
