Electric Eel

Electric eels are non-aggressive fresh water dwellers, preferring warm water. If an electric eel feels threatened or is attacked it will discharge a jolt of electricity. This electrical charge causes any creature within 5-ft of the eel to take 3d8 points of damage, all creatures within a 5-ft to 10-ft range will take 2d8 points of damage, and all creatures within 10-ft to 15-ft take 1d8 hp damage. No saving throw is allowed, though certain magic items and spells may grant immunity or reduced damage from the electrical attack. Rumours persist of a saltwater electric eel which is double the size and delivers a jolt twice as powerful.
