The Ancient Scarab is ancient indeed it is said that there are specimens that are aeons old. Rumours say that unless killed, a scarab will not die of old age but continue to grow andgrow to enormous proportions. Their usual pace of movement is not impressively fast, but they are capable of doing sudden charges to catch their opponents off guard. Even more dangerous, their poison is strong enough to allow these creatures to emit large clouds of stinking death and mayhem around themselves. Ancient Scarabs are said to be the keepers of mysterious secrets swallowed by the sands long time ago. So don't be surprised if some of them might display even more cunning tactics and devastating magic.
The Scarab is in general associated with buried secrets and wisdom, which made this beetle an important religioussymbol for the city of Darama. Typically found in their underground lairs they also inhabit sacred places such as temples, caves or tombs. Scarabs protect their charge with ferocious intent. They will attack anyone who dares to intrude their area and will not relent until the threat is eliminated. Their shells are immensely hard and sometimes weapons might get caught in their chitinous armor. They are able to concentrate their poison in a deadly cloud of nauseating fumes that especially cover their retreat if overwhelmed.
