ZORBO
ZORBO
A zorbo (pronounced ZOR-boh) is a ferocious omnivore
similar in size and appearance to a koala. Living in trees
and caves, it has long claws, a dour disposition, and a
fondness for humanoid flesh. A zorbo alters its natural
armor to match its surroundings, and it can weaken and
destroy armor, shields, and protective magic items with
its sharp claws.
