Creature Feature #4 - Ladybug

Hey Smallfolk!

We have another entry from the Pathfinders' journals to share some more information about a creature you may have seen pop up in some of of the materials we've shared so far, the humble Ladybug

Today I was approached by a Ladybug; a small creature often preyed upon by others, but this does nothing to dampen its plucky demeanour. Watching it I noticed that it will inquisitively seek out anything it finds interesting with mischievous glee. It seems that all Ladybugs are armoured and can withstand certain types of damage due to their armoured shell, the markings on the shell can also ward off potential roaming attackers.

As I broke camp it watched in earnest and then my new faithful companion followed me as we entered the grasslands. But it was here that we heard footsteps approaching, giving away the movements of a large predator manoeuvring through the tall grass. As we ran for our lives my new friend fell behind, and as I made it into the open, weapon drawn to defend myself, my companion was nowhere to be seen, yet the movement of the grass rustling in the opposite direction showed something lumbering slowly away, obviously content with a small meal.

We'll be back next time to take a look at another of the fascinating creatures of Smalland.
