Features

  • Crush
    Mark a Stress to deal 2d6+8 direct physical damage to a target with 3 or more bramble tokens.
  • Horde (1d4+2)
    When the Swarm has marked half or more of their HP, their standard attack deals 1d4+2 physical damage instead.
  • Encumber
    When the Swarm succeeds on an attack, give the target a bramble token. If a target has any bramble tokens, they are Restrained. If a target has 3 or more bramble tokens, they are also Vulnerable. All bramble tokens can be removed by succeeding on a Finesse Roll (12 + the number of bramble tokens) or dealing Major or greater damage to the Swarm. If bramble tokens are removed from a target using a Finesse Roll, a number of Tangle Bramble Minions spawn within Melee range equal to the number of tokens removed.
