newmonster     "Serpent"
descr          "Smartest among the beasts, the Serpent is not one to be trifled with.  It is an excellent climber despite being larger than a human and it likes to hide up in the trees.  From there it can ambush unsuspecting humans when they come close and the Serpent's venomous bite makes sure that anyone bitten will not survive for long.  The Serpent only hunts during the warm seasons.  When it gets cold, it becomes sluggish and only kills those stupid enough to walk straight into its mouth."
