Giant Opossum
An opportunistic scavenger that eats nearly anything, and feigns death to lure a careless attacker into striking range.
Larger species of opossum can eat nearly anything human-sized or smaller — and when cornered, they put on a show, going limp until a careless attacker drops its guard.
+2 circumstance to all saves vs. disease.
In play
Feign Death [Reaction] Trigger The opossum is reduced below 15 HP; Effect The opossum collapses. It is off-guard and can use actions that require only its mind, but any other action ends the ruse. A successful DC 18 Perception check to Seek or Medicine check to Recall Knowledge is required to determine that the animal is not, in fact, dead.
Revived Retaliation [Reaction] Trigger The opossum is attacked or disturbed by a creature within reach while Feigning Death; Effect The opossum Strikes the triggering creature.
