Silver Swamp Python: COMBAT SKILL 20 ENDURANCE 60

Owing to the swiftness of its attack, you do not have time to use a bow. Unless you possess the Magnakai Discipline of Curing and have reached the rank of Primate, double all ENDURANCE point losses you sustain during the combat, due to the snake's venomous bite.

If you win the combat, turn to 62.
