| A sinuous serpent whose body crackles with volatile electricity. Its electric shroud can discharge when struck, inflicting a painful shock on any nearby foes.
“The latter lived in the country, and before his house there was an oak, in which there was a lair of snakes. His servants killed the snakes, but Melampus gathered wood and burnt the reptiles, and reared the young ones. And when the young were full grown, they stood beside him at each of his shoulders as he slept, and they purged his ears with their tongues. He started up in a great fright, but understood the voices of the birds flying overhead, and from what he learned from them he foretold to men what should come to pass.” |

Useful Info
Shock serpents are snakes which can gather an electrical charge for a few turns, and release a powerful torrent of lightning (2d29). The following message will be displayed when a Shock serpent is almost ready to release its electrical charge:
The shock serpent bristles with a violent electric nimbus!
However, when they take more than 4 points of damage, they will lose all the accumulated charge dealing some minor damage to any creature near them. They are also able to shoot weaker bolts of electricity (2d15), similar to those fired by electrical eels. They can be found in the Snake Pit.
