The most advanced burrowling towns set up rudimentary farms, where they grow the fruits and vegetables they usually find in the wild. \n**Safe Warrens.** Some towns have domesticated prairie dogs, which burrowlings train to stand watch alongside their masters. Pairs of adults stand watch around the town perimeter and sound a warning when they spot a foe. An alerted town retreats to the safety of its warrens, while the strongest creatures add more tunnels if necessary, and close access from the surface until the threat has passed. In combat, burrowlings stand together in defense of the helpless young and fight with crude slings or their sharp teeth and claws. \n**Die of Loneliness.** If separated from its coterie, a burrowling becomes despondent, crying for others of its kind. A lone burrowling usually dies of loneliness within a week, unless it can find its way back to its town or discover another burrowling town. Rarely, a solitary creature makes its way to a non-burrowling settlement where it attempts to assist its new community. This frustrates the creature and those it interacts with as it tries to anticipate what its companions want. It may join an adventuring party in the hope of returning to a settlement. After spending at least six months with a party, the burrowling can use its Burrow Tactics ability with its new allies. \nBurrowlings live up to 15 years.

The air around them singed the nostrils with the taint of acid._ \n**Beasts of Burden and War.** Carrion beetles are powerful beasts of burden with strong jaws and the ability to both climb and burrow. With a wide back, serrated, spiky forelegs, and a narrow head, the carrion beetle is too large to ride on very comfortably although it makes an excellent platform for ballistae and howdahs. Its thick exoskeleton varies from drab brown, tan, and black to shimmering blue green, purple-green, and a highly prized yellow‑orange. \nThe largest carrion beetles make a distinctive wheezing sound when their spiracles are stressed; this noise creates a hum when multiple beetles run or charge on the field of battle. War beetles are often armored with protective strips of metal or chitinous armor fused to their exoskeletons, increasing their natural armor by +2 while reducing their speed to 20 feet. \n**Devour Fungi and Carrion.** Carrion beetles rarely gather in groups larger than a breeding pair and a small cluster of offspring in the wild. The domesticated varieties travel in herds of 20-40 to feed on fungal forests, scavenge battlefields, or devour cave lichen and scour sewage pits. The larger caravan beetles are always antagonistic. \nWhen breeding season hits, carrion beetles feast on the bodies of large animals. They are often found in symbiotic relationships with deathcap mycolids, darakhul, and related species. Many species in the deep underworld consider carrion beetles food and use their exoskeletons to fashion shields and armor (though their chitin is too brittle for weaponry). \nPurple worms are their major predators. Worms swallow entire caravans when they find the beetles within. \n**Domesticated by Ghouls.** Domesticated by the darakhul, the carrion beetles live a more complex life. They begin as simple pack animals, with the strongest being trained as war beetles. War beetles often carry ballistae and harpoons fitted with lines for use against flying foes. \nIn late life, the beetles are used as excavators, scouring out tunnels with their acid.

The creature’s waist is no thicker than a clenched fist, and its sinuous arms are no wider than a finger but twice the length of its body._ \n**Born of Magic.** Children of the briar are a frequent nuisance to fey and mortal alike. They grow in deep briar patches in forest clearings or along sunny hillsides and riverbanks. More rarely, they spawn when a sorcerer or magical creature’s blood is spilled on the forest floor, or when summoned into being by obscure druidic items of power. \n**Thorn Fortresses.** Despite their size, children of the briar gather in great numbers, cultivating ancient forest thickets into veritable fortresses. Wise men flee when they hear their clicking language in the underbrush, for the children have all the capricious wickedness of spiteful children and a taste for blood. \n**Spies and Scouts.** From their lairs, the children of the briar creep far and wide to spy on the forest’s inhabitants, sometimes using spiders, monstrous centipedes, and giant dragonflies as mounts. They converse with travelers bearing interesting news, but their words are thorned with gleeful malice, jealous bile, and lies. They are not above murder. They trade news and gossip for trinkets, favors, and drops of spilled blood. \nThe fey have long used the children of the briar as spies and informants, and the power of the Otherworld now courses through their veins, allowing them to work simple magical tricks and slip between the mortal and faerie realms with relative ease.", "name": "Child Of The Briar", "size": "Tiny", "type": "Plant", "subtype": "", "group": null, "alignment": "neutral evil", "armor_class": 13, "armor_desc": "", "hit_points": 50, "hit_dice": "20d4", "speed": { "walk": 20, "climb": 10 }, "strength": 6, "dexterity": 17, "constitution": 11, "intelligence": 13, "wisdom": 10, "charisma": 14, "strength_save": null, "dexterity_save": null, "constitution_save": null, "intelligence_save": null, "wisdom_save": null, "charisma_save": null, "perception": 4, "skills": { "perception": 4, "stealth": 7 }, "damage_vulnerabilities": "fire", "damage_resistances": "", "damage_immunities": "", "condition_immunities": "", "senses": "darkvision 60 ft., passive Perception 14", "languages": "Briarclick, Common, Sylvan", "challenge_rating": "1", "cr": 1.0, "actions": [ { "name": "Multiattack", "desc": "A child of the briar makes two claw attacks.

A dark gray comb flops atop their heads and shapeless wattles dangle from their throats. They seem unimposing._ \n**Dagger Beaks.** Cikavaks use their elongated, dull-gray beaks to draw up nectar and other fluids—or to stab with the force of a dagger. Although it requires great effort to call up these homely birds, the magic is surprisingly common, known among peasants and townsfolk as well as mages. Once summoned, they remain faithful to their masters until death. While cikavaks don’t speak, they comprehend the Common tongue and can speak with animals to help their master. They often magically silence the cries of more melodious birds. \n**Potion Pouches.** Cikavaks possess another odd ability: when fully distended, their ventral pouches hold up to half a gallon of almost any liquid. These resilient pouches take little or no damage from their contents, holding potions without ingesting them or even carrying acid without injury. \nThieves make use of this ability, directing the birds to siphon up liquids and thus steal honey from neighbors’ beehives, as well as milk, beer, and wine. The most audacious thieves send their birds into magicians’ towers, alchemists’ shops, or the local apothecary to seize mercury, phlogiston, and more exotic substances. They carry these stolen fluids back to their owner in their pouches. While normally strong flyers, when laden with liquids, their flight is clumsy at best. \n**Folk Conjuration.** To call a cikavak with folk magic rituals, a character must gather an egg from a black hen as well as 30 gp worth of herbs and colored chalks. Cast at sunset, the folk ritual requires half an hour and requires a successful DC 15 Intelligence (Arcana) check to succeed. (The material components can be used multiple times, until the ritual succeeds). The hen’s egg must then be carried and kept warm for 40 days. During this time, the ritual caster must not bathe or be subject to any spell effects. Usable only by non-casters, the ritual’s feeble magic is immediately dispelled if the cikavak’s master uses any other sort of spell or spell-like ability.", "name": "Cikavak", "size": "Tiny", "type": "Fey", "subtype": "", "group": null, "alignment": "neutral", "armor_class": 12, "armor_desc": "", "hit_points": 17, "hit_dice": "7d4", "speed": { "walk": 10, "fly": 40 }, "strength": 4, "dexterity": 15, "constitution": 10, "intelligence": 12, "wisdom": 12, "charisma": 4, "strength_save": null, "dexterity_save": null, "constitution_save": null, "intelligence_save": null, "wisdom_save": null, "charisma_save": null, "perception": 5, "skills": { "perception": 5, "stealth": 9 }, "damage_vulnerabilities": "", "damage_resistances": "acid, fire, poison", "damage_immunities": "", "condition_immunities": "", "senses": "darkvision 60 ft., passive Perception 15", "languages": "understands Common; telepathy (touch)", "challenge_rating": "1/8", "cr": 0.125, "actions": [ { "name": "Bite", "desc": "Melee Weapon Attack: +4 to hit, range 5 ft., one target.
