Giant shrews resemble giant rats, but are larger, being up to 6' long, and darker in color. They have a very fast metabolic rate and must eat almost constantly. Giant shrews are omnivorous, and aggressively defend their nests and the immediate territory around them.

Special Abilities

Swift attacks — Giant shrews move so swiftly that they are able to bite twice per round, and they may attack two different adjacent opponents in this way.
