__NOTOC__


A kaijan of great and terrible strength, the [[Tarrasque]] has been observed to show some amount of restraint in its rampages. It seems to primarily attack other kaijan, and while these battles are incredibly destructive, many humanoids celebrate the Tarrasque as a defender of civilizations. With a bulky, spiked [[turtle]] carapace, six powerful, ursine legs, and the head of a [[lion]], the Tarrasque is a sight to behold. It is capable of exhaling deadly noxious fumes, and it uses its long, serpentine tail to trip other kaijan before pinning them down with its massive bulk.
Magmadons are [[elemental]] kaijan composed of igneous rock and viscous, bubbling magma. Looming as large as volcanoes with smoky auras and streaming lava saliva, Magmadons can utterly annihilate a village or town with just a few spittle-ridden breaths. Stopping a creature wrought of living magma and rock is no small endeavor, and even experienced dinosaur cavalries have difficulty countering this creature’s fiery aura.

'''Silicate Particles.''' When any one of the Magmadon’s body components are dead, toxic smoke radiates out from the Magmadon in a 60 ft radius. Creatures that begin their turn in the smoke must make a DC 20 END check. If they fail, then they suffer a condition; if they already had that condition, then they gain an additional condition on top of any previous effects:
 
* Shaken until outside the radius of smoke
* Sickened until outside the radius of smoke
* Fatigued
* Slowed until outside the radius of smoke
* Suffocating until outside the radius of smoke

'''Igneous.''' When the Magmadon’s Torso is Bloodied, it gains Regen 5. Additionally, its Elemental Eruption ability becomes Recharge 5. Finally, when it is Bloodied and a creature starts its turn within 20ft of the Magmadon, the creature gains Burning 1d6.
 
'''Erupting Energy.''' When the Magmadon is Bloodied for the first time after it Takes a Rest, it immediately regains its Elemental Eruption and Lava Spit abilities.

| colspan="6" |'''Swipe (Tail).''' ''45 ft Cone Natural Weapon.'' +12 vs REF of each creature in the cone. '''Hit:''' 33 (6d10) blunt and the creature falls Prone. '''Miss:''' 1/2 damage and the creature does not fall Prone.
| colspan="6" |'''Splash.''' The Magmadon dips its tail in lava and flings a congealing glob at a creature. ''Ranged (120 ft) Natural Weapon.'' +10 vs REF. '''Hit:''' 36 (8d6) fire, and the creature is Restrained as the lava hardens into rock. While Restrained in this way, the creature also suffers Burning 1d6. The creature can end both [[conditions]] or be freed by another creature with a DC 20 STR check, which costs 2 AP to attempt.
'''Grab (Tail).''' ''Reach 45 ft Natural Weapon.'' +12 vs REF or FORT. '''Hit:''' 33 (6d10) blunt and a Huge or smaller creature is Grappled.  
'''Swipe.''' ''60 ft Radius Cone Natural Weapon.'' +10 vs REF of each creature in the cone. '''Hit:''' 32 (4d10+10) blunt and the creature falls Prone.


'''Stomp (Legs).''' ''Reach 5 ft Natural Weapon.'' +12 vs REF of a Prone creature. '''Hit:''' 45 (5d12+12) blunt and the creature is Dazed until the end of its next turn.
'''Bite.''' ''Reach 10 ft Natural Weapon.'' +10 vs REF. '''Hit:''' 65 (10d10+10) blunt and the creature is swallowed. A swallowed creature is Blinded, Restrained, and takes 55 (10d10) fire damage at the start of each of its turns.


'''Roar (Head) (Recharge 5).''' ''300 ft Radius Natural Weapon.'' +14 vs WILL. '''Hit:''' A creature is Broken for 1 minute. At the end of each of its turns, a creature Broken in this way may make a DC 24 CHA check, ending the effects on a success. '''Miss:''' A creature is Frightened for the duration instead, capable of making the same check to end the effects early.  
'''Lava Spit (1/Recoup).''' ''Range 300 ft Natural Weapon.'' The Magmadon chooses a point within range and spits a glob of lava, which occupies a 10 ft radius circle centered on that point. That area is now lava. Creatures that start their turn in this lava or move into the lava for the first time on a turn take 33 (6d10) fire damage. Any flammable objects that are not being worn or carried within 5 ft of the lava bursts into flame. Fires created by the lava spit spread at a rate of 5 ft every 1 minute. If there is a strong wind, they will instead expand by 5 ft every 10 seconds in the direction that the wind is blowing. If the fire is burning uphill, it will move an additional 5 ft. Such fires create thick smoke in a radius three times as wide as the radius of the fire. Smoke imposes the Concealed condition on all creatures within it. A creature that starts their turn in the fire or moves into it for the first time on a turn must make a DC 20 END check. That creature takes 7 (2d6) fire damage if they fail the check, and ½ damage if they succeed.


* Once a creature has been Broken by this feature, it is immune to becoming Broken by this feature again for 24 hours. Instead, when it would become Broken from this feature, it is instead Frightened, and if it would become Frightened (as on a miss) it is Shaken instead.
'''Elemental Eruption (Recharge 6).''' The Magmadon summons 3 (1d6) Fireblights, which appear in any unoccupied space within 300 ft of the Magmadon that has lava on the ground. These Fireblights roll [[Initiative]] and act separately from the Magmadon, but obey its mental commands.
'''Retreat.''' The Tarrasque may withdraw its head into its shell. It becomes Blinded, but its head has total cover. It may use this feature again to allow its head to reemerge.

| colspan="6" |'''Trample (Legs) (Recharge 5).''' The Tarrasque moves up to its speed, making the following attack against each creature or object that it moved within 5 ft of during this movement. +12 vs REF. '''Hit:''' 64 (8d12+12) blunt, a creature falls Prone, and a creature is Stunned until the end of its next turn. '''Miss:''' ½ damage and a creature is Dazed until the end of its next turn.
'''Bite (Head).''' ''Reach 15 ft Natural Weapon.'' +12 vs REF. '''Hit:''' 90 (12d12+12) sharp, a creature suffers a random [[Injuries|Lingering Injury]], and the creature is swallowed if it is Huge or smaller. A swallowed creature is Restrained, Blinded, and takes 42 (12d6) corrosive damage at the start of each of its turns.
