Description[edit]

The urnexpected is a monster of the material family that looks like a nondescript pot. The pot hides a mischievous pair of eyes and a grinning, wide mouth lined with fangs that it uses to bite enemies. In the same vein as the cannibox, it waits for adventurers to throw or examine it and then it strikes. It usually knows Sizz and Snooze. When encountered in the field, the pots move around by hopping and they shatter into a million pieces when defeated.
