Nuisance: Stirge (Strix)

horowits · 04-06-2024, 01:05 PM

I am trying to come up with a stirge (mosquito bat fiend) for a nuisance to attach to a player and suck blood. Does anyone have a version they use or any suggestions?

My rough idea is
ST:1 - 6 DX:11 IQ:6 MA:20 (Flying)
-4 to hit in air
1 hit on attach, ignores armor
1 hit each following turn, ignores armor
If attacking stirge attached to an adjacent character and you miss, "roll to miss" player
Stirges stack 2/hex as per rats. After 2 are attached the others will lie in wait for their turn to feed.

I'm not sure if a character should have to drop their ready weapon and get a dagger or punch it off. If using something like a torch, should the character take a portion of the hits?

Any ideas are greatly appreciated! Thanks for your time!
