A stalker frequently torments its prey, closing in until escape seems impossible and then backing off to prolong the enjoyment of the chase. When the time comes to attack, a stalker attempts to take a victim unawares, using its stealth abilities to sneak up on a victim and attack from below, behind, or above. On rare occasions, a large, well armed group of travelers may attract the attention of more than one stalker, so the creatures operate in pairs or even as a pack, coordinating their tactics to isolate and ambush solitary victims, but this behavior is highly unusual. \n'b' Description \n'b' Desert stalkers were created to hunt and kill, and they seek out any prey that presents a significant challenge to their abilities. A stalker is hard to spot even while moving, for it blends in uncannily against the desert background. It is large, powerful, and vaguely humanoid, but notably missing eyes or other visible sensory organs on its flattened head, most of which is taken up by its enormous mouth. \n'b'  Tireless Pursuers . Desert stalkers enjoy the thrill of the chase and pursue their prey for leagues across the desert, closing in for the kill only when a target grows too exhausted to run any more. When confronted with multiple opponents, a stalker is cautious, waiting for an opportunity to ambush isolated individuals rather than tackling the entire group at once.'
