[edit] Physical description
A destrachan looks like a bizarre, nonintelligent beast, but is actually highly intelligent and incredibly evil. It resembles a sort of cross between some type of biped, herbivorous dinosaur, and a hound-like creature. It has a pair of complex, three-part ears that it can adjust to be more or less sensitive to certain sounds. Though blind, it can navigate with its hearing better than most creatures can with their sight. It has a round, tubular mouth and is brown in coloration. It is about 10 feet long, and weighs 4,000 pounds.
[edit] Combat
The destrachan utilizes harmonics to attack. From its tubular mouth, it emmits deadly amplified soundwaves which shatter what they touch. So skilled is the destrachan at attacking in this method, it can choose which type of matter the soundwaves will affect. When fighting opponents, it typically first uses armor disrupting harmonics and then switches to flesh-damaging ones. Although it has claws, it only uses these as a last resort, such as finishing off a dying opponent that has already been weakened by harmonics.
[edit] Society
Destrachans live underground. They cannot speak, but understand Common. If a destrachan must communicate, it does so via action.
Destrachans are usually neutral evil in alignment.
