m 2/2 (Chitin)• i i i Kusthuthun gains extra balance and grappling ability from its surfeit of limbs. The Azlu gains a +1 modifi er to all rolls involving arm strength (including brawling and lifting objects), and a +2 modifi er to all rolls involving balance and running. These bonuses are lost if the excess limbs are removed. • i i B h Kusthuthun’s outsized limb can be used as a single gruesome attack. If the Azlu spends one Essence prior to making an at-tack, the damage infl icted by a successful hit that turn becomes aggravated. If the Azlu misses with this attack, the Essence is wasted.• a s In its natural form, the Leatherworker has two large pedipalps fl anking its mouth that can be used to fasten onto prey and draw them in. These pedipalps add a bonus of +1 to Bite and Grapple rolls when used. In ad-dition, they can be used to inject a Toxicity 7 venom with a successful Bite at-tack; the Azlu has enough venom for three doses before it must rest and feed to generate more. The pedipalps cannot be used (either to modify attack rolls or as an attack on their own) without tearing the Azlu’s stolen human skin. • R t a t c a The interior of Kusthuthun’s mouth is a grinding collection of spider mouthparts, giving it a vicious bite attack. These chelic-erae can fold back into the inside of the Azlu’s head, however, allowing him to speak English without distortion. • i k Unlike most Azlu, Kusthuthun can use its silk and delicate “fi ngers” to mend a torn and discarded skin, allowing it to pose as a single hu-man almost indefi nitely. Its skill also keeps the skin perfectly preserved and immune to decay.

THE GAUNTLET

The wall between worlds is very thick around the Ladybird Room. Although the place-that-isn’t is a supernatural location, which normally implies a weaker Gauntlet, it is its own pocket realm with near-impenetrable walls. In addition, the Azlu in residence has spun its Gauntlet webs to keep unwanted pests from discovering its secret parlor. As a result, the Gauntlet imposes a –4 penalty to all appropriate rolls.
