Tarrasque(D&D)

The Tarrasque is a Cataclysmic Reptile that First made its appearance in the table top Roleplaying game Dungeons and Dragons but also made an appearance in the book The Autistic Hero 2. It is also called 'The Long Dream' because of how long it has been asleep in the history of the stories. A Tarrasque is not just 1 creature, but in fact an entire species called Tarasconus Gigantus which is native to the world Hostile-21 The Long Dream individual is seen in book 2 after it smells a concentrated amount of Anger in the air and tries to go and prey on it. The Tarrasque however was lead into a trap and the anger was attempting to use it to be it's pawn or distraction. The fight was incredibly drawn out and took place over many regions before she was secured and put into stasis so she wouldn't cause anymore trouble.

## Biology

The tarrasque is an enormous abomination, roughly the size of an ancient dragon or kaiju, with two long horns extending from its forehead, a thick carapace, mighty tail, many spikes covering its large body, and a wide, toothy maw. The tarrasque also had two small eyes, but it did not rely on these for its primary method of sensory perception, it was effectively unhindered. The tarrasque was impossible to frighten or charm and had resistances to every kind of damage imaginable. It moved at a speed roughly half again that of a human, either while walking on the surface, climbing a height, or burrowing through the earth. This specific species of tarrasque is called a Traditional Tarrasque meaning it can go both on four legs and on 2 legs. The Long Dream specimen has grown to at least 25 meters tall and 47 meters long. but this is simply a young adult, Adults and GreatBosses are heights of nearly 45 meters to 80 meters tall and 100-126 meters long.

On The Homeworld of a Tarrasque however, life is usually either abrupt or very long and sorrowful since everything was either Battling something they couldn't kill or being attacked and not killed due to the strength of their scales and regeneration. The only way a Tarrasque could get territory is to find it on another planet to become a dominant apex predator. But they need to be careful or the planet they go to could be a planet with high tech aliens that will destroy them and take their resources. The ones who stay home mutate into some of the most feared creatures in the milky way galaxy.

## Abilities

Unfathomable Regeneration: Much like Xenith Stephenson, The Tarrasque can regenerate its body parts at frightening speed and it can only be stopped if one were to eat the place where the limb fell off.

Heavy Carapace: The Armor of the Tarrasque is so tough not even the strongest dragons could tear into it, Not even the greek gods or angels of heaven could assault it. This carapace also can deflect projectiles instantly.

Insatiable Diet: The Tarrasque despite being carnivorous can eat and digest anything that it eats since it has 3 stomachs which each digests the food 1 by 1 until they have left nothing but magic residue.

Frightful Presence: The tarrasque when it roars creates a mysterious aura which causes almost everything to become afraid of it and make their adrenaline gland spontaneously activate. This allows for it to make the Prey's fight or flight go immediately to flight and make a mistake along the way.

Magic Resistance: Any magic skill used against it no matter the region(except for spatial magic) always does half damage against the Tarrasque.

## Trivia

The Concept of the tarrasque being an alien actually comes from a Theory the book's author had that the Tarrasque in D&D was in fact from another planet and that it was only unique to the material plane because nobody knew where it came from.
