Swarm

Talent

A group of Teeny Tiny creatures working together gains this talent depending on the swarm size below; the values are approximate and should only be used to estimate how many there might be.

Number of Creatures	Swarm Talent
A few (2-3)	D4
Some (4-7)	D6
Lots (8-15)	D8
Loads (16-31)	D10
Uh oh (32-63)	D12
Too many! (64+)	Split the swarm into 2 swarms of about equal size

Effect

• The creatures are treated as one character and gain the following benefits.
  • A swarm can use its Swarm talent to make Body tests.
  • A swarm gains Stamina equals to its Swarm die (so a Swarm (D8) talent gives 8 extra Stamina)
  • When a Swam loses its last point of Stamina, it instead downgrades its Swarm talent and gains Stamina equal to its new value (so a Swarm (D8) talent swarm dropped to 0 Stamina would become a Swarm (D6) talent swarm and gain 6 Stamina). If a swarm has a D4 talent die when it loses its last point of Stamina, it is defeated.

Side/Secondary Effects

• When a swarm loses Stamina due to an effect that affects more than one creature (such as Fire Breath) it loses an additional amount of Stamina equal to its Swarm talent roll.
