But the beast in that legend seems a lot more like a wimpy drake, than the Tarrasque we know and love from the MM.So instead of returning to that legend for plot ideas, why not go to the REAL source that inspired the MM Tarrasque?Special tanks to IMDB.com for assitance.1. Tarrasque!Testing of magical weapons of war has awakened the slumbering tarrasque, who is now laying waste to the country. One lone wizard possesses an artifact that can destroy the beast, but will also atomize all life in the vicinity. Can this wizard be convinced to use his ultimate weapon, or is the cure really worse than the disease. Co-starring Rayburr the Half-Orc Bard as special guest narrator.2.The Tarrasque Raids Again!The wizard's ultimate weapon was ultimately useless. While the tarrasque was gone for some time, it has now returned, more powerful than ever. And it has brought another beast it's equal in destructive force along for the ride. These two colossal forces of nature collide in combat, and their battle threatens he safety of the kingdom. Can the beasts be drive off somehow?3. Tarrasque vs. Legendary ApeThe tarrasque once again menaces the kingdom. If only there was some other enormous beast to drive it away. Perhaps the stories that tell of a Legendary Ape worshipped by saveage primitve tribespeople are true? Rumors tell that the Ape has a penchant for elven maidens, can beauty woo the savage beast into helping drive off the tarrasque?4. Tarrasque vs. the Faerie VerminThe tarrasque is up to his old tricks again, marauding about the coutryside. It must be stopped! The adventurers must act as delegates to the twin faeries and entreat them to send the giant flying vermin against the tarasque. Sould the tarrasque defeat this fey moth, perhaps the twin faerie princesses can send the moths caterpillar children to finish the job their parent started?5. Tarrasque vs. The Three Headed DragonThe princess suddenly vanishes from her coach while travelling one day. She soon reappears, claiming to be an emissary from another plane. She tells of dire portents signifying the appearance of an evil extraplanar three-headed gold dragon. Are her warnings true? Who summoned this dragon? Could the tarrasque somehow defeat this new extra-planar threat?6. Tarrasque vs. Outsider XOutsiders appear in the kingdom asking permission to take the tarrasque back to their home plane. It seems their plane is plagued by an evil three-headed gold dragon, and they want to use the tarrasque to destroy it. In exchange they offer the kingdom the cure for all disease, as well as great magic and wealth. However, with the tarrasque now under their control these outsiders reveal their true colors and set both the dragon, and the tarrasque against the PC's7. Tarrasque vs. The Epic ChuulAn enemy kingdom has been capturing slaves and taking them to heir forced labor camp on a remote island. The slaves have no hope of escape, or rescue, as they slavers control an Epic Chuul that destroys anyone besides them that approaches the island. Legend says he tarrasque also slumbers on this island. If the PC's could find and awaken the tarrasque, it just might be ale to destroy the chuul as well as the evil slavers!8. Destroy all Tarasques!After ages of predations by marauding monsters, the kingdom has finally managed to corral the tarrasque, and all other colossal monsters on one secure island. Things are going fine, until marauding outsiders release the tarrasque, a Legendary Roc, a Three-Headed Gold Dragon, and the moth-like Faerie Vermin as a diversion to their establishing a secret base beneath the kingdom.

Stop them at any cost!14 Tarrasque vs. The Titanic TendriculousA crazed wizard has used his magic to combine a portion of the tarrasques powers with a simple rose.

Tarrasque! (Redux)A neighboring kingdom decides they need to have a tarrasque of their very own. So the get some earthworm wizard and magically alter a lizard.
