Great monster, I like it. Gives "bobbing for 
apples" a whole new meaning. That would be good if 
there could be some monsters that are just for 
frustrating the LR. Doesn't have to have a sin 
enchantment. One way to handle monsters that just 
beat up on LR is to roll vs. JOY strength to see if 
they lose heart in the mission. This could cause 
lose of maturity units. This just represents the 
troubles of life. A sucess could also mean gain of 
maturity units on faith score. I don't know just a 
thought.

God Bless
John
