Description

This item first appears to be a Tiny sealed metal ball weighing half a pound. The ball has a hidden catch, which can be found with a successful DC 25 Intelligence (Investigation) check. Releasing the catch unlocks a hatch at one end of the ball, allowing two Diminutive or smaller creatures to crawl inside. Ten levers are set in a row at the far end, each in a neutral position, able to move either up or down. When certain levers are used, the crab transforms to resemble a tiny crab. This tiny mechanical crab moves about, un piloted, when it’s not being observed. Its gains a random attachment to creature and follows them inexorably when not watched. At other times it is a savage killer and regularly kills small prey as an ambush predator.
