Evil Nagafurre™
These are the traditional temple guardians of
the ancient world. They have the torso of a
Furre but a lower body like a huge snake.
Their faces are often snake-ish, with scales
and backswept ears tight to their heads.
Furres tend to find them beautiful yet somewhat
repellant at the same time.
A nagafurre can only be magically created by a
conclave of Dark Mages. It begins as an egg,
which hatches and rapidly grows into a four-
meter-long adult over the space of a month.
Making a Nagafurre requires the destruction
of a Faeriefurre, a mortal Furre, and a snake.
They are usually equipped with a warrior's
weapons, and armor made especially for them.
Then they are set to guard great treasure
hoards.
Nagafurres can spit fist-sized balls of "fyre":
gooey stuff that bursts into fire in the air.
Their range is equal to that of the finest,
heaviest bow. Once set on fire, a victim's
best chance is to smother the fire with
something fireproof. Rolling on the ground
will make it worse and spread the fire.
Water does nothing to the Nagafurre's fyre.
It will burn for weeks- donated fyre from a
friendly nagafurre makes a great lamp fuel!
The best action for someone hit by fyre is
to apply large amounts of dry powdered
gypsum or plaster-of-paris. The burning will
go out but the victim will still be horribly
injured.
The nagafurre's senses of touch and hearing
are very acute, and they cannot be surprised
if they are awake. They can hear the heart
beat of a furre hiding behind a huge pillar
several meters away, for example. Thus,
they can fight in pitch darkness without
any penalty.
Nagafurres are, by nature, vain and insecure.
They can embody all the worst traits of a
young child-- greed, selfishness, laziness,
malice, and so on. Also, like a young child,
they love to listen to stories. (Long epics
are their favorite.)
There are three known ways to distract one.
Its serpent nature makes it hungry and after
being given a large offering of food, it will
go to sleep. Its Faerie nature gives it a
curious, playful side, and it can become
obsessed with a puzzle toy, such as a large
jigsaw or a metal blacksmith's puzzle.
The mortal Furre nature gives the Nagafurre
susceptibility to loneliness. Most will
never have seen another Nagafurre and can be
thrown into a state of rapture and longing
by showing it a large mirror.
It is also true that a mortal furre of the
opposite sex who is good and pure of heart
can tame the Nagafurre with kindness. (This
isn't sexual, and it's always a furre of the
opposite gender.) Once tamed, a Nagafurre
starts to grow up, showing more and more
self-control and maturity over time.
