Commentaires : These are creatures from the elemental planes. On those planes, they are simply pests, but they can be a greater problem on the Prime Material plane. Each is basically humanoid in shape; more complete descriptions can be found in the individual entries below. Elemental vermin do not speak any languages, and their relatively low intelligence makes any sort of telepathic contact fairly unrewarding. The water elemental vermin has head, hands, and feet like those of a frog, though the mouth is filled with many sharp teeth. Its body is greenish and covered in ridges and bumps. The spitter attacks with a bite, or by spitting a pellet of water. It can do the latter once per round for 1d4 points of damage.

Combat : Though some elemental vermin would rather run away than fight, all fight tenaciously if cornered or disturbed during feeding. Each has a special attack and a special defense, described below.

Habitat / Société : Elemental vermin traveled to the Prime Material plane through various gates. They appear in places frequented by genies and elementals and prefer to live in areas heavy in their element (high nests for dusters, underground burrows for crawlers, fires and furnaces for flamelings, and wells and rivers for spitters.

Ecologie : While just normal scavengers on their home planes, elemental vermin are detrimental to their environments on the Prime Material plane. They have tastes for things that are important to humans, such as perfume, gems, silks, and wine, and they can be rather dangerous. There is no known use for or by product of elemental vermin. Their elemental “essence” is too weak to be of any use in the making of potions, and no one would buy a captured vermin unless they had some peculiar revenge in mind.
