Su-monsters inhabit forsaken wilderness areas && subterranean lairs as well.
They have prehensile tails which they use to swing from limb to limb or to hang upside down.
From such a position they can attack with all four of their clawed feet as well as their jaws.
All four feet are prehensile and armed with long and extremely sharp nails as well.
Su-monsters are at home upright or hanging upside down -- the latter being one of their favorite methods of lurking for prey.

If more than 4 are encountered it is
likely (50%) that the group will be a male, female, and young (determine
growth state by rolling a 20-sided die far maturity, using 10% increment,
and treating 10% as 20% and 100% as 30%).

The female will FIGHT at double value for six turns if the young are attacked,
and the male will FIGHT at double value for four turns if the female is attacked.

Psionics: Su-monsters have a latent psionic ability which enables them to deliver some form of psionic attack once per day if psionic activity is being used within 12’‘ of them.
Determine attack form by rolling a d6: 1-2 = psychic crush, 2-4 =
psionic blast, 5-6 = mind thrust.

Psionic defense is not necessary as the su-
monster is not itself subject to psionic attack.

Description: The fur of a su-monster is dirty gray.
The creature’s tail and face are black, its paws are bloody red.
