Special Abilities:
Venomous Bite: If the rock wart successfully bites a target, it injects a neurotoxin that does 5D damage to its target. If the
victim dies (or goes unconscious), the rock wart will make
a snack of its victim before laying 4D eggs inside him. After
four days, the eggs hatch, and the larval rock warts devour the carcass.

Rock warts were orange/brown insect-like crustaceans found on many planets. Their bite delivered a neurotoxin to their victim, which was then used as an incubator for up to twenty eggs.
They were fast moving scavengers and pests that lived in rocky, secluded habitats, particularly on Tatooine, as well as Tocoya or Kirdo III. Rock warts were usually solitary creatures, and often hid in shadows and attacked when surprised. They were nearly 1 meter long.
Among the nasty surprises to greet a weary moisture farmer returning to his hovel after a hot day's work could be a spiny rock wart that had crawled into the welcome shade of the home. Though not ordinarily aggressive towards larger animals, rock warts had a deadly neurotoxin that could kill a man as easily as the small invertebrate and lizard prey upon which the creatures usually fed. The lethal venom, administered by a bite to subdue fleeing prey, might just as readily be used by a surprised rock wart in its own defense, having been sat on or stepped upon in the dark. Misunderstanding or not, the unfortunate recipient of a wart wound was seldom alive long enough to care about the reason he was bitten.
