OSR: Pywawa

A lone Farmer on arid lands buries their sole goat, dead on the drought. Out of fear of catching the disease that killed it, or new ones attracted by the carcass, a quick hole on the ground suffices. Foolery, as the Pywawa grow and thrive in hot and dry climates, and fresh meat underground is just the ideal breeding pot. The next morning, the Farmer will find their field filled with half-planted pineapple weeds...

Our poor farmer is in for a treat, and should run away, pronto.

Rather quickly, this field will prove to be the birth of full Pywawas. They'll come out of the earth, flying on their bat-like wings, shouting "WAWA WAWA WAWA" in unison. Their upper body resembles the shape and form of a pineapple (yet much sturdier), a proper description of the half above their lone eye. Their teeth are hard, will tear through leather, flesh, and tendons, yet stop at iron and stone. These flying fuckers seek hot flesh, as the unison cry continues. They eat, eat, and eat some more, and never know when to stop.

Pywawas are ferocious, carnivorous, and have the cunning and intellect of a dog. Which means they will remember individual faces and locations, have great senses (keen vision), and are able to open door handles with their teeth (although more complex mechanisms will fly by them).

Heat and light are an attraction to them, so they will go after bonfires, torches, and candles first. They hunt and are always encountered in packs (or flocks, rather), and should be dreaded by all treasure hunters and adventurers.

Pywawa WAWA WAWA WAWA

To sum up:

• They fly, have the intellect of a dog, and always shout "WAWA WAWA WAWA".
• Pywawas attack at first sight, and always come in flocks.
• Can't be really tamed, but easily diverted by a) putting a huge fire or b) leaving fresh meat behind.

Pywawa HD: 2 Omen: distant shouts in unison of "WAWA WAWA WAWA". Appearance: one eye, size of a pineapple. Bat-wings flap. Number Appearing: 2d6 Wants: fresh and warm meat. Anything that's been dead for longer that 1 hour is of no interest to a Pywawa. Armour: as Leather + Helmet. Movement: fly at Normal speed. Morale: 9 Save As: Fighter 1 Attacks: Bite d8 Special:  Heat Attraction: Pywawas will attack torchbearers and move towards victims carrying heat sources. WAWA WAWA WAWA: anyone hit by a Bite, has to shout "WAWA WAWA WAWA". This prevents them to cast spells, or command hirelings (they can still spend their action to do gestures and signs). Also, Save vs Poison or has to attack with their Bite for d4 rounds the nearest creature (ignoring their weapons or other abilities), as the hunger for flesh consumes their will.
