Independent Brains

Each of Marguk's heads rolls its own initiative and has its own turn. Neither head can Delay. At the start of a head's turn, that head gets 2 actions and 1 reaction. Each brain controls one of Marguk's arms, but both can move the legs. Any ability that would sever one of the heads (such as the vorpal weapon property) doesn't cause Marguk to die if she still has her other head, but it does cause her to lose the turns, actions, and reactions of the severed head. Mental effects that target a single creature affect only one of Marguk's heads.

Regeneration 20 (Deactivated by Electricity or Fire)

This monster regains the listed number of Hit Points each round at the beginning of its turn. Its Dying condition never increases beyond Dying 3 as long as its regeneration is active. However, if it takes damage of a type listed in the regeneration entry, its regeneration deactivates until the end of its next turn. Deactivate the regeneration before applying any damage of a listed type, since that damage might kill the monster by bringing it to Dying 4.

Head Regrowth

Marguk's regeneration can regrow a severed head. After regaining Hit Points from regeneration, she attempts a DC 10 flat. On a success, the missing head is fully restored. If Marguk loses her last remaining head, she dies immediately.

Partial Armor

Marguk's armor primarily protects her abdomen and legs, leaving her shoulders and head exposed. Strikes made with ranged or reach weapons gain a +1 circumstance bonus to attack rolls against Marguk. At the GM's discretion, other attacks that can easily reach her head level (such as attacks made from high ground) also gain this bonus.

Reactive Strike

Trigger A creature within the monster's reach uses a manipulate action or a move action, makes a ranged attack, or leaves a square during a move action it's using.

---

Effect The monster attempts a melee Strike against the triggering creature. If the attack is a critical hit and the trigger was a manipulate action, the monster disrupts that action. This Strike doesn't count toward the monster's multiple attack penalty, and its multiple attack penalty doesn't apply to this Strike.
