Loxodon

Deep in the jungles of the Wastaru (see upcoming post), paths wind to and from under the tall canopies. On the floor walk the loxodon single-file from destination to destination in their constant migration cycle.

The loxodon is like an elephant, except in the place of the enormous ears, the loxodon has small ears which are hidden by the enormous locks of hair that descend in dreads from upon their heads. They are not as large as their cousins, but usually travel in larger packs, making them more dangerous.

Combat

Loxodons tend to charge single-file at threatening creatures, smashing into them one-by-one right after one-another. Think of smashing headlong into a locomotive.

Trample (Ex): Reflex half DC 25. The save DC is Strength-based.
