Centipede, Giant Whiptail

CR 3.00 Vermin N Huge
An elephantine centipede scurries about, its double tail lashing angrily behind it.

Whiptail centipedes are carrion eaters, though corpses large enough to satiate them are a rarity. Corpses of Huge or larger creatures left to rot often attract whiptail centipedes, who viciously defend their bounty against any who would intrude upon their lairs.
