Stag Beetles are nasty, since they do a whole load of damage.
I have a Stag Beetle hiding in my closet, rather than a boogey man.

On several occassions known to me, these beetles chased ill-prepared adventures beyond the confines of their dark and dank lair, only to remain hidden along the otherwise peaceful and idyllic coastline, to lay in wait as some chitinous leopard might, patiently waiting to pounce upon unsuspecting wayfarers, in order to tear the fleshy parts and rend limb from limb, using their iron-like mandibles to crack bones length-wise in their instinctual drive to access the soft, spongy marrow within the bones of their victims, which if by some horrific curse they were so unfortunate as to remain conscious for the act, would then serve as mute participant-witness to the apathetic cycle of life as the beetle then inserts an extensible probuscis through the eye-socket of the hapless traveller's skull in order to deposit eggs which in time open to reveal the larvae within which then consume the remaining remainder of the remains. It was icky when it happened to me.

Can't tell you that, since it really also depends on their exploration xp % as well, but I can tell you who has seen the most areas...

Notice, Luther doesn't even place. And I think that is only because he explored all the areas before I started tracking them in the database |

I have an idea!!! For all those power gamers wouldn't it be fun to have a running count kinda like the Dirtnap League? I can see it now: nobody talks, they're too busy looking for new areas, killing their chosen foe, trying to get that "extra kill" and even good characters have become slaughtering sociopaths! We could rename it "Bloody Vives!"
How about posting for the Valstadoriun followers: most items crafted per character, most crafted item, most harvested resource (probably wheat or salt), highest xp for crafting an item/items, Highest levels/xp in crafting by type and total of all types, best price for sales, highest priced purchase, item most found/ most sold/ most bartered... now wouldn't THAT be fun? It'd be like the Dow Jones of Vives!!! ((Not that a follower of Valstadoriun cares about such things.))
