Lizard, Jastrak

''Running towards you out of the gloom is a terrifying two-headed lizard. Its heads are completely eyeless but it possesses teeth-filled maws, long claws and a spiked, club-like tail.''

Combat
Jastraks are aggressive and are quite willing to initiate combat with unknown foes as a way of testing their opponent‘s Strength. Their blindness often works to their advantage as they ignore distractions, obstacles and tactical concepts that are dependent upon sight.

A jastrak will leap to the attack and then commence a savage flurry of attacks in order to bring its foe low as swiftly as possible. It uses its tail primarily to deal with threats to its rear but will strike at enemies along its flank if necessary.

Description
The jastrak is a subterranean lizard that rarely, if ever, ventures to the surface. Jastraks are curious and belligerent creatures, confident in their formidable array of natural weapons, and unexpected encounters with wandering jastraks usually end badly. Jastraks are completely blind and possess no visual organs whatsoever. Their senses of hearing and scent, however, are exceptionally well developed.

Jastraks live beneath the earth, burrowing through it with their claws. Their unpleasant dispositions mean that other inhabitants of the Athasian underdark have learned to give them a wide berth. An adult jastrak is nine feet long and weighs 800 pounds.
