Monster: Remorhaz

Monster: Remorhaz

The remorhaz is an arctic predator that shares its hunting grounds with frost worms, dining on frost giant, muskoxen, and caribou. It saves itself from cold not by developing an innate resistance to cold, but by radiating extreme heat that fries everything nearby. However, it can stop doing so to hide under snow and ice and surprise the prey.
