New monster for Holmes basic: Avarian

Next, we have the fourth of my adaptations of each species of the Five Powers for Holmes basic D&D (and my starship megadungeon project).

Avarian
Move: 150 feet/turn
Hit Dice: 1-1
Armor Class: 5
Treasure Type: none
Alignment: any
Attacks: 1
Damage: 1-6 points each

Avarians are birdlike aliens who cannot fly unassisted.  Slightly smaller than humans, they wear armor that will deflect stun beams (+5 to saves) and carry a laserblade equivalent to a +2 dagger.  Avarians’ ranged weapons include a grenade rocket pack (six charges) capable of delivering a 100-yard blast equal to a 12-dice fireball out to a range of one mile (roll to hit as with a giant throwing a rock) and a wide dispersion blaster that does 1-10 points damage to any three targets within 5’ of one another.
