It desires to eat all living things it can catch, sometimes devouring entire towns worth of people. After eating, it wanders away and disappears for a time. No one knows where it goes. Some say it returns to its mountain lair and sleeps, other believe it returns to its own plane of existence. The one thing you can be sure of is that it is massive.

"As you brave the fallen walls you can sense the power therein. Images of a glorious past come to assault you, of banners raising high and the sound of cheerful voices who claim for their lords.

He raises one of its arms wich holds a finely honed blade and closes the distance between you two with a shriek of despair and hate that breaks any semblance of serenity." Instinct: To find death
