Miniature Monster Blood Snail for 28mm Scale Games Like Call of Cthulhu, Stargrave, and D&D Conversion

The Blood Snail presents a dangerous encounter to the unwary adventurer. In some ways it resembles the forest snails you have seen on the rocks near streams. However, the elongated body of the adult is slightly larger than man-size! At one end, the body ends in a bulbous sack with green tendrils hugging the body. The other end is a rosy colored, segmented rounded tip.

The creature is primarily found in temperate forests and tropical jungle environments. It often makes its home near small running water sources, particularly pools and catch basin. The water sources attract animals to the snail's domain. Capable of nearly silent movement through light underbrush and leaf covered forest floors, the Blood Snail often lies in wait for its prey. Ready to spring its trap when an unwary animal approaches. The Blood Snail is also known to slowly approach its target if necessary, but its relatively slow movement rate means it generally relies on the element of surprise.

Once within range, the curled tendrils lash out at with whip-like speed, stretching to two yards or more. These act like tentacles and ensnare the intended prey. The Snail secretes a clear viscous liquid from the tips of the tendrils. This secretion contains a powerful paralysis agent. Once in contact with the victim's skin, the slime causes paralysis of the motor muscles. The prey quickly becomes still, but remains conscious. Pulling its victim close in, the segmented end of the Snail splits open to reveal a mouth filled with rows of sharp teeth. The mouth clamps onto the prey, burrowing into the body and proceeds to drain it of its nourishing blood.
