Art by Jonathan Wojcik With an incredibly lightweight structure, natural biochemical buoyancy and precise control of its own electromagnetic field, scumbrella can hover indefinitely or rocket through the air as it pleases, often drifting miles in the sky until its powerful vision identifies an enticing meal. Due to its fragility, it prefers to attack from a safe distance by raining its black, burning acid down upon its prey, descending once the victim has ceased moving and employing its bony, hollow proboscis to feed on the subsequent stew of boiled bodily fluids. If attacked, it can release an electrical shock by physical contact, but will typically make an effort to avoid such proximity to a potential threat. Scumbrella are not only fast and deadly killers, but their heightened awareness makes them exceptional at information gathering, tracking, and problem solving. They are also by necessity extremely sensitive to weather patterns. A scumbrella attracts a mate with loud, bright bursts of electricity, pushing its resilience to the limit as it nearly fries its own tissues. Reproduction occurs by the intertwining of proboscises, and each partner will brood a number of small offspring along the lining of their inner membranes. Variant: Painy Day Scumbrella Some scumbrella have learnt a more refined and deadly way of utilizing their acidic secretions and electricity in tandem. They have the following action. Electrolytic Stream (Recharge 5-6). Ranged Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, range 20/60 ft., one target or two targets within 5 feet of each other. Hit: 25 (10d4) acid damage plus 44 (8d10) lightning damage. The scumbrella takes 20 damage after making this attack, even if it misses.
