Description: Target: Nightshade Paolumu. Reports indicate that first contact resulted in extreme drowsiness. That’s where the report ends…Let’s get to it, uh, Partner! Excited to see what you can do!
Characteristics: A Paolumu subspecies capable of putting prey to sleep. It produces a powerful sedative gas stored within its throat sac that it can expel and scatter to knock unwary foes out.
Useful Information: It uses tail swipes and other blows to bat its soporific breath into a target’s path. Stubbornly airborne, this monster needs some “encouragement” to drop it to the ground.
