The first bug

The Blister Beetle is most commonly encountered in areas full of vegetation, such as forests or jungles. Herbivorous by nature, Blister Beetles will attack only if they feel threatened.
This does not mean that they are harmless however. If a group of blister beetles are disturbed by adventurers engaged in combat, they may rush out to drive off these intruders; especially if the battle is near their nest.
In combat, a Blister Beetle releases a toxin that causes it's foe's skin to blister, rendering it vulnerable to further attacks.
