A huge gastropod with a lime-green shell. Torpor snails are said to be in some way connected with the god Cheibriados; just being near them is enough to slow the movements of unwary adventurers, leaving them easy prey for the snails' terrifying, ever-gnashing radulae.

Tips and Tricks

Barring a source of stasis to stay at normal speed, you'll want to dispatch these foes as quickly as is feasible, preferably by itself. They are like a milder version of floating eyes; while less deadly than irresistible paralysis, you don't want to be slowed either, and the torpor snail doesn't check your MR.
