Rust Scarab
An elemental beetle's rusted plating shields it from harm until its carapace finally cracks, unleashing a corrosive cloud of drifting rust.
These elementals resemble enormous beetles, with thick outer shells composed of multiple layers of heavily pockmarked, rusted plates protecting a jagged metallic skeleton.
Crumbling Carapace When a rust scarab is reduced to fewer than half its maximum Hit Points or is damaged by a critical hit, its outer shell breaks into a veil of rusty metal flakes. This causes it to lose its resistance to physical damage and its heavy ability, but it gains a rust cloud aura (as metal wisp) and a 35-foot land Speed.
