Basic Information

Anatomy

The boar-q-pine is an enormous animal, though not nearly as large as a sky bison. It has the body and general appearance of a boar, but its body is covered in quills resembling those of a porcupine. It has a large head compared to the rest of its body, and from it jut a pair of sharp, white tusks. These tusks appear to grow upon nearing adulthood. As they mature, the quills that cover their body during youth begin to point backward instead of upward.

Relentless: (Recharges after a Short or Long Rest). If the boar takes 7 damage or less that would reduce it to 0 hit points, it is reduced to 1 hit point instead.
