Zorbos (pronounced: /ˈzɔːrboʊz/ ZOR-bohz[1]) were small, carnivorous creatures[2] native to Chult.[4]
Description
Zorbos were typically around three feet tall, and covered in gray fur. They had sharp teeth, as well as sharp claws on both hands and feet.[3]
Behavior
They favored human meat, but were also known to enjoy the meat of dwarves, elves, gnomes, and halflings.[3]
Combat
In combat, zorbos had the unusual ability to draw on their surroundings to make themselves tougher. For example, a zorbo fighting inside a cave could draw upon the aspects of stone. Additionally, zorbos could absorb the protective features of armor and magical items. If such an item were hit by a zorbo, it would dissolve into dust.[3]
Ecology
Zorbos were most often found in groups of one to four individuals.[2]
Notable zorbos
- Obo'laka, one of the Nine Trickster Gods of Chult, was a zorbo.[5]
