Chaurus

Chaurus

Chaurus
Chaurus Hunter

The insectoid Chaurus often fight alongside their Falmer masters. Their high health and lingering poison attack makes them dangerous opponents. Be sure to increase your resistance to poison with potions or enchantments before facing them.

When a Chaurus reaches the end of its natural lifespan, it forms a cocoon and is reborn as a flying Chaurus Hunter. Hunters have more powerful attacks, greater health, and stronger chitin that resists physical damage, making magic a more effective choice against them. Minor Treasure includes a tiny chance of: A few gold, a gem, or a ring.
