Ecology: Ambush predator and scavenger, Foetodon is found on the litter-strewn jungle floor, usually near game trails, where it will gladly take anything offered. Foetodon will also eat carrion, and will dig into mounds of leaf litter in search of large invertebrates. Young Foetodon live in lakes and steams until large enough to safely venture out onto land and into the jungles./P>
Personality/Motivation: Typical animal motivations.
Powers/Tactics: Foetodon will usually scrape out a hollow near a game trail or will burrow into mounds of litter, lying quietly for a prey item to appear. One quick lunge and a bone-crushing bite later, and Foetodon usually has its meal.
Appearance: Foetodon has the same general appearance as a large crocodile. It reaches lengths of 15 to 20 feet, with a broad build and mottled grayish skin. The face and jaws of Foetodon are often covered in blisters from infections picked up while foraging in the leaf litter.
Designer's Notes: Foetodon appeared in the film King Kong. It was the monstrous lizard eating the carcass of a dead dinosaur (possibly a Ligocristus), that decided to go after Ann Darrow instead. After chasing her inside a rotten log, the Foetodon fell prey to a Vastatosaurus Rex. I used the Crocodile character sheet seen in the HERO System Bestiary to create the Foetodon.
