I guess you mean terrace. And no, Lavos is a gazebo.

Read your Monster Manual buddy...anyhow sure I would say that Lavos is one

No. Lavos has massive magical abilities, not giant monster attacks. I'd make him an aberration with epic sorcerer abilties.

Ummm, you're... right? Because.... ummm... I was... joking?

So, buddy, read the MM yourself: turn to page 240 (if we're talking 3.5), and read the headline above "Colossal Magical Beast". Now tell me again that Lavos is a Terrasque

Perhaps in the sence that the Big T is a "Boss Monster" of sorts.

Lavos is more of a terror from beyond the stars with the lovecraftian horror aspect yanked out.

Man- jokes really go unappreciated here... I was going to drop something witty, but I fear I would get attacked. So I am going to use my Rouge skills and hide... Red lipstick power!!

Hehe, yes. My original response was "Read my MM? Are you a rouge or what?"
(Thought it might've been too rude...)

But jokes don't always go unappreciated here. Of course people must get the jokes in the first place...

Nooo... although you can use Big T as a template for designing the outer shell.

As a plus, Lavos gathers magic, DNA, and knowledge from every era. It's all a big excuse to make a super creature with every concievable ability from the MM, plus every nasty trick the BBEG or PCs ever pulled, and it's justified too! Bwahahahah!

Now I'm tempted to stat Lavos up. The outer shell, by the way, looks to me like it could easily be far larger than the big T as well. I'll do some scale comparisons and check that out, unless some fansite out there has already done that.

I'll be using the Immortal's Handbook rules for sizing and damage and such, as well as U_K's Challenge Rating system for calculating CR (Also known as the Grim Tales system).
