A kamadan, f, is a type of monster that is introduced in SLASH 6, and appears in SLASH'EM and SlashTHEM. It is a feline with three bite attacks and a breath attack that induces sleeping.
Eating a kamadan corpse has a 27% chance of conveying sleep resistance.
Strategy
The kamadan is capable of appearing quite early, and its sleep breath and bites can prove dangerous if you are caught unaware and lacking resistance.
Origin
The kamadan originates from Dungeons & Dragons, and is depicted as a beast that almost exactly resembles a leopard, save for the six snakes sprouting from its shoulders. Kamadans hunt using a sleeping gas breath weapon to knock its prey unconscious before moving for the kill; the kamadan's snakes also possess a powerful poison in their bites. They are occasionally speculated in-universe to be related to displacer beasts, though their similarities are coincidental - in fact, kamadans despise displacer beasts and are known to attack them on sight.
Encyclopedia entry
The kamadan is a greatly feared hunter that resembles a large leopard with six snakes sprouting from its shoulders. Sages believe it is a distant relative of the displacer beast, though how it came to be is still a matter for speculation.
