Abilities & Attacks

Tremorsense (Imprecise) 30 feet. Tremorsense allows a monster to feel the vibrations through a solid surface caused by movement. It is an imprecise sense with a limited range (listed in the ability). Tremorsense functions only if the monster is on the same surface as the subject, and only if the subject is moving along (or burrowing through) the surface. Swarm Mind. This monster doesn't have a single mind (typically because it's a swarm of smaller creatures), and is immune to mental effects that target only a specific number of creatures. It is still subject to mental effects that affect all creatures in an area. Centipede Swarm Venom (poison). Saving Throw DC 20 Fortitude save. Maximum Duration 6 rounds. Stage 1 1d6 poison damage and Off-Guard (1 round). Stage 2 1d8 poison damage, Clumsy 1, and off-guard (1 round) Swarming Bites (1 action).
