Crocodile (Forge)

Crocodiles are reptiles with long bodies, squat legs, webbed feet, and massive jaws. These creatures are aggressive hunters and eat fish, reptiles, and mammals. Giant crocodiles will attack humanoids without hesitation. Their hide and coloration gives them a natural camouflage, allowing them to surprise prey 50% of the time.

Female crocodiles have the same general characteristics as their larger male counterparts, but females have one-half the hit points of male crocodiles.

These animals live in tropical areas with brackish water near coastal areas. They sometimes frequent lakes and rivers.
