Chaos beast
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In the Dungeons & Dragons fantasy role-playing game, the chaos beast is an outsider from the outer plane of Limbo. Describing the chaos beast is difficult, as, in all honesty, the chaos beast has very little true form. It is a predatorial embodiment of chaos, randomness, change and difference. For every second that passes, the chaos beast changes form. It grows limbs, changes color, becomes beautiful, goes ugly, increases and decreases in size, disappears and reappears, and basically, has absolutely no true form. Every time one looks at a chaos beast, it is different. It changes and mutates permanently, and this is basically its purpose.
The chaos beast attacks opposers with whatever weapons its current form has. Whether those be fangs, claws, horns, pincers, tentacles, spikes, magical attacks (e.g... breath weapons, ETC...), or whatever else. These are surprisingly unaffective, however, as the chaos beast can rarely attack more than twice before changing again, and never has time to coordinate attacks. The main weapon of the chaos beast is its touch which, apparently transfering the chaos energy to the victim, cause it to change as well. The victim must have enough fortitude to resist it, lest it remain melting, mutating, flowing, writhing and changing forever. The chaos beast itself is immune to transformation spells.
Chaos beasts do not speak.
They are chaotic neutral in alignment, naturally.
