Crystal Scarab

A beetle encrusted with magical crystals that deflect spells.

This scarab's carapace is studded with naturally grown crystals that refract and reflect magical energy. Spells bounce off it at strange angles. The crystal chitin it drops is invaluable for crafting magic-resistant armor.
