Ew. | |||
They are vile, icky, and terrible, and the fact that are intelligent and urbane creatures just makes it even worse. Otyughs are not beasts, they have good minds and are quite interesting conversationalists... if you can get past what they eat and how they live. | |||
Everything that is disgusting and terrible, an otyugh loves. Even ogres, those wretched things, find an otyugh's personal habits and lifestyle vomit-inducing. Otyughs perform an important ecological function in lairs and dungeons, disposing of the wastes of the rest of the inhabitants, but it certainly doesn't improve their breath. | |||
Otyughs also have the peculiar habit of venerating certain pieces of trash above others in their lairs. Often, they will build shrines to a collection of broken glass shards, or a bent tea kettle, placing it somewhere they can easily regard it when they take their ease amid the filth and refuse of their lair. While these shrines are not, themselves, particularly clean, they demonstrate an inscrutable reverence and spirituality to the otyugh's nature. | |||

Special Abilities
Grab (Ex) Automatic after successful attack |
Any time the otyugh hits a creature with a tentacle, it may make a free grab attack against the creature in addition to dealing damage, rolling its Maneuver Offense (1d20 + 11). If the result is equal to or greater than the target's Maneuver Defense, the creature is Grabbed. Unlike a normal grab, the otyugh suffers no ill effects for sustaining the grab. While grappling a creature with a tentacle, the otyugh may not use that tentacle to attack any creature other than the one grabbed (see Constrict below). No creature may be grabbed by more than one tentacle at a time, even tentacles from other otyughs. Grabbed creatures may attempt to end the Grabbed condition on their turns (or take any other action available to them while grappling).
|
Constrict (Ex) Automatic if grapple initiated |
If an otyugh makes a standard attack or full attack action and begins that action with one or more creatures Grabbed, it may use that tentacle to constrict the creature as part of that action, in addition to the attack(s) it would normally be allowed to take. Constrict deals 2d8+4 damage to the creature, and the creature must make a Fortitude save, DC 18, or become Bruised. Constrict may be used once per tentacle, assuming the otyugh has two different creatures grabbed, but a given tentacle cannot use Constrict on the same round that it used Grab. |
Filth Fever (Ex, Disease) Automatic after successful attack |
Any damage inflicted by an Otyugh has a chance to also inflict a disease:
|
Midden Climber (Ex) Always On |
An otyugh can move through difficult terrain as though it is normal terrain. They also take no penalties from climbing at full speed, and are never made Flat-Footed due to climbing, though they do not have a natural climb speed. |
Otyugh
Otyughs are monsters that live on the wastes of other monsters.
Ew.
They are vile, icky, and terrible, and the fact that are intelligent and urbane creatures just makes it even worse. Otyughs are not beasts, they have good minds and are quite interesting conversationalists... if you can get past what they eat and how they live.
Everything that is disgusting and terrible, an otyugh loves. Even ogres, those wretched things, find an otyugh's personal habits and lifestyle vomit-inducing. Otyughs perform an important ecological function in lairs and dungeons, disposing of the wastes of the rest of the inhabitants, but it certainly doesn't improve their breath.
Otyughs also have the peculiar habit of venerating certain pieces of trash above others in their lairs. Often, they will build shrines to a collection of broken glass shards, or a bent tea kettle, placing it somewhere they can easily regard it when they take their ease amid the filth and refuse of their lair. While these shrines are not, themselves, particularly clean, they demonstrate an inscrutable reverence and spirituality to the otyugh's nature.
Combat Tactics
Often, otyughs will merely observe strangers, rather than immediately attacking. Other times, otyughs will aggressively engage in combat, either to defend its lair, or because it feels some loyalty to a local denizen and wants to guard them against intruders. Or it could just be in a bad mood. Regardless, otyughs are fearsome opponents.
Using their significant reach, otyughs will batter and bite their opponents until they identify one or two who seem particularly dangerous. This will be any creature whose damage stands out as being significantly greater than its allies, often a rogue, brawler or sorcerer, etc. These creatures will be singled out for grabs and constrict attacks, while the other creatures are relegated to bite attacks.
The otyugh will maintain a grab on a creature until the creature escapes, dies, or the otyugh is killed.
Otyughs aren't particularly stealthy, and their unusual shape makes them fairly easy to identify. However, they are fairly smart, and will make use of walls, corners and rough terrain to minimize flanks on themselves while they steadily crush their chosen victims.
Out of Combat
Otyughs live in sewers, cesspits, and effluvium ponds. They thrive in dungeons and old ruins, and especially enjoy the working sewers of cities. Otyughs can often be found in the lowest, dankest parts of almost every dungeon that has an active population, so that there is plenty of fresh filth to wash down for them to live upon. An open-air swamp is usually far to pristine, clean, and boring for an otyugh.
That said, Otyughs are tremendously powerful, live in extremely harsh, vile, and noisome conditions, and are highly intelligent and gregarious creatures. Weirdly enough, otyughs often wind up as the social center of many dungeons! If a gnoll, hobgoblin, or even an ogre, troll, or giant, finds themselves starved for a bit of witty conversation with a creature that doesn't have anything they want and lives in a place that nobody wants, then they can go down and chat up the otyughs.
For their part, Otyughs often find themselves acting as sounding-boards for all manner of notions, and purveyors of all the gossip. In a weird way, these vile, ostracized things can wind up as the sympathetic ear and wise council for an entire dungeon.
