Silt Horror, Magma

''The silt swells as something swims beneath the surface. You catch a brief glimpse of a large, bulbous body with a writhing nest of tentacles sprouting from one end, and then it sinks back into the dust, leaving you wondering where it will next surface.''

Combat
A character with a slashing weapon can make a sunder attempt to sever a silt horror's tentacles. Each tentacle has 12 hp and severing a tentacle deals 6 damage to the silt horror. Tentacles grow back at a rate of one per month.

Description
The magma horror inhabits volcanic areas. Unlike the other horrors, the magma horror is very intelligent and has formidable psionic abilities. Since it no eyes, it uses its psionic powers to sense the presence of prey. Once prey is found, the horror contacts its victim psionically, trying to persuade it to approach.

As with all horrors, the magma silt horror is always looking for an opportunity to feed itself. This horror must feed at least once every six weeks or it begins to weaken.

The magma silt horror is a solitary creature that meets others of its kind only for mating.
