Rockwad
Description
Although it resembles a stubby, unassuming stalactite, Rockwad is far more dangerous than its inert appearance suggests. With tendrils coiled tightly beneath its stony exterior, this cunning ambush predator can climb sheer surfaces and even hang upside down, blending seamlessly with the jagged ceilings of caverns. Silent and motionless, a Rockwad senses its surroundings through the faint vibrations in the earth, detecting the softest footfalls of unsuspecting prey below. Few crytures ever realize a Rockwad is lurking above until it strikes, turning every low ceiling into a potential trap.
Combat
Rockwads will always try to attack from an advantageous position, using stealth and camouflage to set up an ambush before engaging. They prefer to use Anomaly attacks to stay out of melee as much as possible, but they don't back off once engaged. Instead, they hunker down, switching to close range attacks, while boosting their defenses as much as possible.
