Mutant Future Version
Magnitrons are bizarre, 12' tall bipeds with toothy snouts, green manes, massive claws, and barbel'd, fish-like heads for rumps. While they usually only get 1 bite per round, magnitrons engage foes in front and behind if surrounded, gaining 4 attacks per round in the process. They are never Surprised, and when ambushing from below ground, Surprise on a 1-4 on 1d6.
A magnitron devastates all in its passing. Once per hour, it can generate earthquakes (or tidal waves, when waterborne) that last 1d4+1 rounds with effects as per the Earthquake spell [see p. 22 of the Labyrinth Lord Core Rules]. The beast breathes fire, and is immune to its effects. Furthermore, when a magnitron is attacked by any other form of energy, the first assault does full damage...but the second does half, and all further attacks have no effect whatsoever!
Magnitrons take a perverse joy in carnage and mayhem, and use their abilities to inflict maximum havoc on terrain, structures, and innocents.
Mutations: Aberrant Forms (Lungs and Gills, "Tail-Headed"), Energy Ray (Fire / Heat), Reflective Epidermis (Cold, Electricity, Fire / Heat, Lasers / Light, Radiation) (Modified), Unique Mutation ("Quake Generation")
