Fluxbug
 DESCRIPTION Fluxbugs are usually found in abandoned mines and appear as giant silver beetles with a mirror-polished exterior. They possess incredible anti-magnetic properties and they seem to “hum” with vibration. Due to the warping a fluxbug causes in the other planes, it saves as 10 HD monster against all magical attacks, but saves as a 2 HD monster against all other forms of attack (including non magical fire, ice, etc.), except electrical-based attacks, to which it is completely immune. Additionally, fluxbugs are immune any attack made by a metal weapon (bronze, iron, etc.,) including silver, and magic, and all missiles containing metal, with the magnetic field repelling all such attacks. Should any creature attempt such an attack, there is a 50% chance that any hand-held weapon will be “flung” from the attacker’s hand. For every creature within a 30’ range of the fluxbug, there is a 5% chance that any metal missile or “flung” hand-held weapon will strike one of those creatures, inflicting up to the full damage of the attack against the creature struck, including the original attacker. Should a creature wearing metal armor attempt to approach a fluxbug, they will be repelled as well. The bite of a fluxbug contains a toxic metal substance (akin to lead or mercury) that will kill in 4-5 turns (unless a successful saving throw vs. poison is made). | Oe/1E STATS FREQUENCY: Rare NO.
