" A fine question indeed, Aubry... and I'm sure you're already going to know my answer... that would be Terry, our Displaced Tarrasque. "No one knows how he got here, we just know he's been here since the first resident arrived." "Before Erin's Wish, Terry would vicously rampage for weeks, but lay dormant for years. Knowing your enemy was top priority and Terry was the biggest." "Terry, thought, is not the brightest... so Team F.E.E.T could handle the more dangerous encounters... simply by leading them into his path... and he pretty much took care of the rest." "We took care of a Litch, a few wrathes... and an Sphere of Annihilation this way." "Don't get me wrong, Life before the wish was much... much harder. Terry was the least of our concerns back before the walls were rasied." "As a scientist... I find myself in a unique place. Time has effectivly frose here... or just running in spurts..." "The forest that grew around Ard'Vanwa became his foodsource, and there is enough to keep even a tarraque sasiated..." "But, the other side of the coin... is Terry never hybernates." "It was easy before... we could mark where he's sleeping and keep clear... but now we're settled, and there's only a moat keeping him back... We've yet to see him attempt to swim... I hope the thought never crosses his mind or we're all dead." "But, speaking of minds... Terry's is simple, and like simple animals succeptiable to suggestion! We've been able to create a tethered Magic Mouth and place it inside his ear cannal while he slept... We've been attempting to teach him basic commands." "So, Terry the Tarrasque would be the most unique and endangered creature in our realm..."
Basic Information
Anatomy
The current Guild Armor Rating would classify the Tarrasque as (AC -3). IT's skin reflects Magic Missles, immuned to psyonics
Genetics and Reproduction
It's unknown how a Tarrasque reproduces.
Growth Rate & Stages
It's unknown how a Tarrasque grows, as there is only one, and it's remained the same size.
Ecology and Habitats
Terry tends to stay on the west side of the island. He consumes the trees and creatures, items, rocks, and whatever it things will feed it's unending hunger.
Dietary Needs and Habits
A Tarrasque will eat everything it can fit in its mouth. It's only animal thought is to consume.
Biological Cycle
Normally, A Tarrasque will hibernate for decades before awakening and rampaging for weeks. After Erin's Wish, Terry now sleeps for a few weeks before foraging for food and his behavioral patterns have changed slightly.
Additional Information
Social Structure
There are no others around, so we're unaware of their interactions with others of their kind... if there are. One theory si that all of the tarrasques are the same one, and this could be the proof of that theory.
Domestication
We are currently working on teaching Terry simple commands.
Back Away, Go Home, Stop, and, NO are the ones we are currently trying to teach it.
Uses, Products & Exploitation
Terry is quite good at lumber reduction. We've been able to secure raw material for our artisans by simply following Terry's wake of destruction.
Facial characteristics
Terry has two horns pertruding over his brows that he uses to charge and gore. He has lesser horns around his chin.
