ECOLOGY

Organization solitary, team (2-5), troop (6-12)
Treasure none

The outer planes can be a dangerous place and the formian race has risen to the challenge. Warriors stand 4½ feet tall and are about 5 feet long. They have clawed hands with which to grab opponents and poisoned stingers to weaken foes. Warriors are intelligent combatants who will use tactics to weaken foes and capture them. Unless opposed by creatures of pure chaos, the warriors will always seek to capture opponents alive.
