We've given it the same Strength as a Kraken, so how about giving the tentacles the same 1d6 damage as a Kraken, and boost the females a tad to match.Like, say the male have 1d6+6 tentacles and 2d6+6 constrict and the female have 1d10+6 tentacles with 2d8+6 constrict?That just leaves the slam. The original did a very modest 1d10 damage, so how about we just treat it as an unarmed strike or gauntlet which scales up to 2d6 damage for a Colossal creature. It is basically just punching them with a huge humanoid fist after all. If it wants to punch harder, it can get levels in Monk!</blockquote>
