Monstrous Creatures
A monstrous creature is one that is so large and hulking that it gains several special rules that apply to it.
- Monstrous creatures only take, at most, one point of damage from any attack without the "slay" call.
- Monstrous creatures are immune to "Pin" attacks and Pit Traps.
- Monstrous creatures are immune to mundane (non-magical) restraints.
- Monstrous creatures can bypass the caps for dual wielding and for wielding a weapon and shield, allowing them to hit for up to 4 damage with any melee weapon if they have the correct skills to do so.
