 +**Lizardfolk Scout**\\
 +1 hit\\
 +Difficulty 7\\
 +
 +**Lizardfolk Warrior**\\
 +2 hits\\
 +Difficulty 9\\
 +When a warrior hits, it makes a second attack. If successful, it knocks its enemy on its ass with its tail.
 +
 +**Gelatinous Cube**\\
 +5 hits\\
 +Difficulty 8\\
 +On successful hit, instead of rolling for weapon breakage, roll for weapon sticking and 15% to the chance. So, 100 gold weapons will stick on any roll under 25.\\
 +//Special// - If a Hobo's weapon sticks, the Hobo rolls his or her Avoiding Traps secondary trait vs. 10. If the Hobo fails, they are stuck and on next round they can roll again to get out. While stuck, if they fail they take a hit. This continues till they die or make a successful save.\\
