Flash beetles are commonly herded and harvested by miners and spelunkers, as their glow is considered safer than torches and less expensive than lamps. Denizens of the Darklands often domesticate and train these insects, using them as pets, livestock, or caging them to use as organic sources of light in areas frequented by visitors unaccustomed to the darkness.","perception":"+6; low-light vision","languages":"","skills":"Acrobatics +6, Athletics +4","str_mod":"+1","dex_mod":"+3","con_mod":"+2","int_mod":"-5","wis_mod":"+1","cha_mod":"-2","items":"","ac":"16","st_fort":"+5","st_ref":"+8","st_will":"+4","st_notes":"","hp":"6","immunities":"","weaknesses":"","resistances":"","speed":"20 feet, fly 15 feet","melee":"[i]1 action [\/i][b]mandibles [\/b]+8 (agile, finesse), [b]Damage [\/b]1d4+1 piercing","ranged":"[i]1 action [\/i][b]Light Flash [\/b](concentrate, light) The flash beetle creates a brilliant flash of light.
