These are rules for playing Tierzen in Tunnels and Trolls, the Delux Edition. The general description of Tierzen can be found here.

Tierzen: Str: 1, Con: 1, Dex: 1, Lk: 1, IQ: 1.25, Wiz: .75, SP: 1 Chr: 1.75

Height: 1, Weight: .1

Special Abilities: Although physical combat works normally for Tierzen, they will typically use spiritual weapons when doing so. They can use regular weapons, but they normally manifest spiritual weapons for combat. When fighting with a spiritual weapon, any spite damage done to an opponent is matched by a point of damage to either IQ, WIZ, or Chr. It is up to the victim to decide which of these stats they will apply the damage to, but they will take damage to one of those attributes along with the usual damage to Con for a spite roll.
