Monstrous centipedes tend to attack anything that resembles food, biting with their jaws and injecting their poison.

These creatures travel wherever hunger leads them. They prefer to feed on small animals but do not hesitate to attack humanoids or other larger prey. Monstrous centipedes are long and low: 8 feet long, 1 foot wide* and 6 inches high. *This number includes the centipede's body and its legs; the actual body width is about a third of the total.
