It has a large semi-spherical body, four large tentacles, many smaller tentacles, hoofed feet and several mouths that drip green goo. If in very close combat, the dark young will simply stamp, trampling it opponents into the ground, hooting and bellowing as it does so.Īppearance: A dark young is a huge ropy mass of tentacles that loosely resembles a tree. This energy will greatly weaken the target, and once all the energy is drained (the target is STR 0) the victim will be devoured. The dark you will then bite down and suck the screaming victim's life energy away. Powers/Tactics: In combat a dark young will lash out with its long tentacles, attempting to grab a potential victim and draw them to a dripping mouth. It is usually motived by sacrifices to itself or its mother. Personality/Motivation: A dark young does its best to spread the cult of its mother. They also meet with worshipers of their mother's, accept sacrifices (usually animal) and attack and destroy nonbelievers and other enemies of their cult.ĭark Young are also known as the Dark Young of Shub-Niggurath, the Tree of Life, or that Tree That Walks They dwell in wooded areas and will prey on local fauna. the "Black Goat of the Woods with a Thousand Young".
