Borthak

D&D 2024 monster: Borthak. Source: Vecna: Eve of Ruin. challenge rating 15, creature type Monstrosity, Huge size, speed 30 ft. Borthaks are irascible, wolflike behemoths that ravage northern wetlands and alpine fens on Krynn. Few mountain animals can challenge a borthak physically. Its powerful jaws, acidic spittle, and lightning-quick tail make the borthak an apex predator in its home territory. Luckily for most wetland dwellers, borthaks rarely congregate. Unluckily, a single borthak can wreak havoc on an entire ecosystem with its supernatural ability to siphon heat from the ground. A borthak's body is so efficient at pulling the heat from its surroundings that it can transform a small, temperate glen into a frigid, slushy bog. Native plants and animals rarely survive long in a region a borthak claims as its hunting ground. Once a borthak has depleted an area of flora and fauna, it moves and begins its pillaging anew.
