Useful Info
Giant centipedes are weak (but fast) vermin with a potent poison sting. They are found in the mid-Dungeon and the Lair.
Tips & Tricks
If they land a few lucky hits, they can inflict a fair amount of poison. In practice, however, only the flimsiest of spellcasters are at risk and only if they are caught off guard, as giant centipedes are exceptionally weak by the time you generally see them. Poison resistance renders them even more harmless than usual.
