What does it say about me that I look at this thing and think: "Hmm, it's not terrifying enough" and then make it even bigger, add huge mandibles for it to stab and cut with, and replace the chitin with a stronger material?

And then did ARMOK say, the east is the holiest of directions, and thou shouldst not stand there lest thou be strucketh down by my holiest of beards. And then did the dorfs did say, we shall build from the west, for more do we fear the beard of ARMOK than the strike of the elephant.

I can imagine a bunch of  monks making a pilgrimage to a holy mountain, only to discover that it isn't there anymore.

wonder how I'd set up the segments to be zombies.....
Give the legs the [GRASP] tag, or give the segments the [HEAD] tag. The former will cause cut-off legs but not legless segments to be animated, and might also cause neat wrestling issues; the latter will make cutting off the centipede's head meaningless and allow them to wear hats on their segments if they get [EQUIPS]. Pick your poison.

Suggestion: Centipede men. Or giant millipedes.

This is exactly the sort of thing we need!  More monsters that are entertaining and potentially challenging, but not grotesquely overpowered.  Kudos, Medikohl!

I support wyrms idea. Makes it more terrifying.
