Behold, the Tarrasque of Legend...

[Henry]

Make him the Gaiju Half-infernal Tarrasque ninja of Legend, and you get something even better...

I preferred the Woodling Tarrasque myself.

 

[Zappo]

All fear the ToL's mighty breath weapon. That is smaller than itself. And deals 3d6 damage. Does that count as a +1 CR?

 

[Edena_of_Neith]

(grins wildly)

A 30 headed, fire breathing tarrasque?

I now know why they invented Jaran's Prismatic Blade!

 

[Cartigan Mrryl]

That... is... SO... BROKEN! The Tarrasque's enough of a Beast. Why confound problems? This is ridiculous. Hilarious... but ridiculous.

 

[demiurge1138]

Pssh. And they claim that the tarrasque of legend is Godzilla. Fat chance.

Demiurge out.

Thats just crazy... and a good example of "design without thought", as is often the case. Five heads on something like a Tarrasque (which has a relatively short neck) is unworkable. A hydra has long necks and relatively small heads, and is the only way it is possible. A 5 headed tarrasque with long necks would just fall over in a multi-face plant and be incapable of moving. A 30 headed ANYTHING is just obscenely ridiculous. You'd need the front end of the animal to look like a string-mop, with a tiny head on the end of each string.

What's he gonna do? Bite my little toe? ;-)

Throwing stats together to make an power-gaming uber-creature is pointless unless the thing actually works as a functioning organism. Does anybody ever actually THINK what their Frankenstein creations are gonna look like?

But when the tarrasque of legend is standing over Tokyo, I'll bet your players won't quibble much about the length of its breath weapon.

I'll bet my players would be looking up at the Tarrasque laughing, because its breath weapon doesn't even reach the ground unless it stoops.

"Stop laughing at me, my back hurts and I can't bend over. Go on the roof of that building so that I can breath on you."

Also, would it be wrong of me to advise WotC against participating in RangerWickett's daily challenge (today is Monsters)?
