Djeer
This creature is a twisted desert echo of the centaur. It has the hindquarters
of a scorpion, but a short, muscular human torso protrudes where its head and
claws should be. The human part of the Scorpio is bronze-skinned and hairless,
with white eyes that seem to stare blindly at opponents.
The scorpion part of the creature is a yellowy brown. Its stinger shoots over
its shoulder, stretching like a whip, and imparting venom that is just as dangerous
as that of the Giant Scorpion. Additionally, the djeer tend to wield one short
sword in each hand.
Djeers attack and kill travellers for their meat. They tend to live in desert
oases, or in caves which offer shelter from the worst of the midday sun.
