Giant leeches inhabit warmer, fresh water. If a giant leech successfully hits a character, it drains hp equal to its hit dice each round automatically thereafter (so a 4 HD leech drains 4hp per round). A character bitten by a giant leech must save vs poison or suffer a disease that will be fatal in 1d6 weeks.
