Tarialisk
Nowhere, until you call it to a campfire
What it is
A long iron-scaled snake with a hammerhead's head and one eye between the two sides of it, spikes down its length and a ball of them for a tail.
The dark grey rats with iron for skin grow fat on what it sheds. Cook one at a fire, and the smell brings it straight to you.
How it fights
Its own blow is weak. It wears its armour as cards: Barbed Scales on its head and body cut you for every attack that reaches them, scrap plate soaks your blows, and its Tail Mace hits harder for every plate it wears.
Break the plates, or strike where they are not.
Once you have met it
High Dangerous. Come rested, with something in the bag.
