Description
chasm fiends are gargantuan bug like beasts they resemble a giant boulder when they are not moving but when they start moving 4 large legs emerge from its body and 2 gigantic claws emerge from it to crush things. they reside in great chasms, and occasionally they will create a large chrysalis to protect their newborn. these chrysalis's are sought after by treasure hunters because even young chasm fiends, have what is called a gem heart. this gemheart when taken out of a chrysalis is worth about 35,000 gold pieces and an adult gemheart is worth about 75,000 gold pieces. however anyone who wants one will have to contend with hoards of treasure hunters as even one gem heart from a chrysalis is enough for 20 men and their families to retire. cold severely damages the chasm fiend as these types of creatures have evolved to survive the baking heat of the sun so they are quite vulnerable to the cold.
