Devastation vermin are mindless agents of destruction, time-forgotten remnants from an alternate multiverse that comes into synch with our own only once every few thousand eons. Devastation vermin are creatures that have slumbered beneath the surface of the earth for untold centuries, hidden away and undisturbed. Often, devastation vermin are awakened by the encroachment of civilization into their nests, or the area above them. When disturbed, devastation vermin erupt from the soil with ravenous appetites, leaving swaths of destruction in their paths as they feed. Devastation centipedes can cover vast distances quickly, consuming Large and smaller creatures as they travel. Devastation beetles are ravenous when they first appear, consuming anything and everything in the vicinity.
### Combat
A devastation beetle uses both its sheer bulk and its special abilities to get to food.
