On every attack by a {{name}}, the defending creature must make a [[Agility]] [[save]] of difficulty 15. If this fails, the creature will be [[latched onto]] by the {{name}} for {{dice tooltip|3d4}} turns, giving the {{name}} and additional attack on the creature every turn and requiring a strength save of 15 every time the creature attempts to move. The creature must successfully [[save]] with [[strength]], difficulty 15 in order to break free from their jaws.<ref><code>XRL.World.Parts.LatchesOn</code></ref> In combination of [[berserk (effect)|berserk]], this makes dismembering two limbs in one turn possible.
