Game Master reference / Monster
Description and lore
A small sand fish slips beneath loose dunes and surfaces to bite. A moving ripple is often the only part of it visible.
Loose sand rises in a narrow moving ridge. The small fish remains hidden until its mouth breaks the surface.
Rock interrupts the rippling trail. Beyond the firm edge, grains settle over the place where the body passed.
