These thirty legged myriapods enjoy feeding on cellulose and cloth, as well as on fresh meat or carrion. They are extremely aggressive and will bite without provocation. Their bite causes weakness if a saving throw vs poison is not successful. Victims will lose 50% of their strength, with a 3 being the minimum. Treat those with 18% strength as 18 for this effect. The effect is not cumulative, so those bitten by the trigintipede twice need not fear further strength reduction. Strength will recover at the rate of 1 point per turn.

Trigintipede body segments have alternating coloring in yellow, red, and black. The head is always red with beady black eyes.
