Description
A Giant Snail is a great molluscoid creature with a hard shell covering most of its body. It attacks by slamming its body into its opponents, covering them in its mucus (a powerful poison). The victim of this poison must make a saving throw against poison or be paralyzed for 1 turn.
It leaves a trail of this mucus which is also slippery, and anything attempting to sprint through it must make a saving throw or fall and be subject to the poison’s effects.
If surrounded, the giant snail may retreat into its shell, giving it an armor class of 0 [19] and a hardness of 4 (see the White Box stronghold construction rules).
