Bio: This vicious Orc hails from a subtribe that emphasizes training with
the bow from an early age. Snagarotth hates non-Orcs in general, but especially
loathes Elves, and has dedicated his life to hunting and killing them, making
himself quite a nuisance in woodlands in which they dwell. He has for an
animal companion a large crow (with statistics equal to those of an animal
companion hawk).
Tactics: Over the brief years of his career as a marauder, Snagarotth has
become an expert bowman, and will attempt to inflict as much damage against
enemies as he can from a distance. Indeed, as a veteran warrior, he is well
aware of what can happen to archers in hand-to-hand combat and will avoid
it as much as possible-especially against multiple opponents-even to the
extent of fleeing. Instead, he prefers to fire at opponents from behind
cover or inaccessible positions, or at enemies engaged with other members
of his war band. He may be encountered either on his own or as part of a
larger band, but in either case is likely to be directly accompanied in
his mischief by a "posse" of 1d6-1 low-level Orcs (50% likely
to be of the Archer (Longbow) subtype).
He will generally treat such lackeys badly and exploit to his own ends in
combat. He receives an additional +1 on bow attacks at targets within 30
feet ("Point Blank Shot," PHB).
Bio:. As a member of the Archer (Longbow)
subtype, Snagarotth has substituted his Shield Proficiency, Light
Armor Proficiency, and Medium Armor Proficiency for feats that enhance his
use of the bow.
