The '''Nickelpede''' is the "big brother" of the [[centipede]]. The nickelpede is a reference to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xanth Xanth] novels. In Xanth, "They are five times as bad as centipedes, gouging out nickel-sized disks of flesh"<ref>Currant Events, page 53</ref>. Despite this, the nickelpede only has 2.5 times the difficulty of the centipede and under 4 times as damaging an attack. They are not poisonous to eat but have a high chance of conferring poison resistance.
