Rimworld: Centipede (5e Creature)
Centipede[edit]
Large construct, unaligned Armor Class 20 (natural armor)
Saving Throws Str +10, Con +7 Versatile Weaponry. Centipedes can hold 1 of 3 weapons at any given time, a heavy charge blaster, an inferno cannon or a minigun. While centipedes cannot change weapons by themselves, a friendly mechinator can use a short rest to change the equipped weapon on a centipede. Vanometric Charging. Unless connected to a mechinator, centipedes passively recharge their internal batteries, removing their need to rest or manually recharge. EMP Adaptation. Whenever a centipede is hit by lightning damage, it must make a DC 20 constitution saving throw or be stunned for 1d4 rounds. If a centipede becomes stunned, the DC saving throw is decreased by 1 if they get hit by lightning damage again. If a centipede succeeds any constitution saving throw, it is immune from being stunned for 8 hours Bandwidth. The centipede can be controlled by a mechinator at the cost of 4 bandwidth. Once controlled, its alignment switches to the alignment of its mechinator and will listen to any commands given to it by said mechanitor ACTIONSBody Slam.

Heavy combat mechanoids that glide on dozens of tiny legs. Their thick carapace and firepower makes them very effective against bunched-up static defenders. They are somewhat vulnerable to mobile hit-and-run tactics. While they aren't too dangerous by themselves, in large groups they can decimate entire armies. |
