Lava Beetles
Monster, Tomb of Ice
I - Rules
Lava beetles have adapted to life in their freezing environment by generating their own body heat through an unknown internal process. This same biological chemistry gives them their defense mechanism - expelling a stream of sticky, boiling, liquid goo explosively from their abdomens at anything they deem a threat. The bigger, more brightly colored beetles shoot fluid so hot that it's flammable. Lava beetles are hive creatures, but sometimes groups of patrolling beetles are seen away from their home, foraging for the nest.
