Deepstalker

"A foot trusts his eyes. A wise man fears every rock is a deepstalker."
--Dwarven saying.
Possibly the strangest of all the creatures found in the Deep Roads is the deepstalker. Tezpadam, as the dwarves call them, hunt in packs, generally by burrowing underground and then striking when their prey is in their midst.
Stalkers come in several types. Spitters have venom glands and can spit secretions that slow or injure their prey. Jumpers hurl themselves at their target, knocking them down and making the kill easier. The most common variety scarees its prey, leaving the unfortunate victim helpless against the rest of the pack.
