Lightning Punch◆◆offensive

The melomach makes a fist Strike, then makes a lightning Strike against a different creature within 120 feet of the fist Strike's target. Both Strikes count toward the melomach's multiple attack penalty, but it doesn't increase until after both attacks are made.

Rhythmic Stomp◆offensive(emotion, mental, primal)

Frequency once per round Effect The melomach's footsteps raise a clanging sound through their body to create a brief musical phrase.

Scream◆◆offensive(primal, sonic)

Critical Failure The creature takes double damage, is Stunned 3, and is deafened permanently.

Description

Melomachs are massive, vaguely humanoid elementals composed of metal debris. They take great pride in decorating and augmenting their metallic bodies with haphazardly placed spikes, blades, humanoid or bestial skulls, and other similar adornments, the more ostentatious the better. When two melomachs meet, the resulting contests of physical might and vocal prowess can last for days, often leaving the landscape ravaged for miles in every direction.
