Skin Beetle Swarm
Precision attacks barely scratch this swarm, but a wide burst tears through it, and its bite leaves prey bleeding well after the fight ends.
A churning carpet of carrion beetles, the skin beetle swarm strips flesh from bone with a thousand tiny jaws, boiling up out of the earth wherever the dead lie unburied.
