Monster: Zelekhut

Zelekhuts are charged with hunting down those who would deny justice - especially those who flee to escape punishment. Expert trackers, they use a combination of natural skill and magic to find fugitives wherever they may hide.

Typical Stats

ST:	22	HP:	27	Speed:	6.5
DX:	12	Will:	14	Move:	9 ground, 13 air
IQ:	10	Per:	14

    Punch (14): thrust 1d crushing (KYOS: 1d+2 crushing), Reach C-1.
    Hooves (14): thrust 3d crushing (KYOS: 5d crushing), Reach C-1.
    Spiked Chains (16): The zelekhut can take a Ready maneuver to unfurl spiked chains from his forearms or to retract them back. These chains deal swing 2d crushing, Reach 1-4*. The chains are awkward enough that they require a Ready maneuver to change reach (e.g., between 1 and 3). Otherwise, the zelekhut can strike at foes that are at any distance within the chains’ reach. Attempts to parry the chains are at -4, and fencing weapons cannot parry at all! Attempts to block chains are at -2. This swinging attack is unbalanced – the zelekhut cannot use it to parry if he have already used it to attack this turn (or vice versa), and parries with the chains are at -2. The zelekhut has two chain attacks, which permits him Dual-Weapon Attacks (p. B417). Spikes favor disarming, giving the zelekhut a +2 on disarming attempts. The chains have DR 4 and effective weight 0.84 lbs. This attack uses the Kusari skill.
