Half insect, half human, Mayflytaurs have incredibly short lifespans but have evolved to be exceptionally overpowered in just about every imaginable way.

Innate Abilities

• Short Lifespan: Mayflytaurs are easily found by Zot, as their Zot clock runs 10 times faster.
• Passive Mapping 1: Mayflytaurs can sense parts of the layout of the dungeon around them.
• Big Wings 1: Mayflytaurs can fly.
• Damage Reduction: Mayflytaurs suffer less damage from every source. This applies separately to every source of damage, every time it is dealt; for instance, damage shaving generally negates the effects of all but the worst cases of being poisoned.

Mayflytaurs have a base Strength of 9, Intelligence of 9, and Dexterity of 9 (before background modifiers).
