The Gigaedes is a creature of legend that can be read about in ancient scrolls. Scholars believe them to be long extinct, but treasure hunters insist they can be found in the old places of the world. Typically, you will find them in their dormant state, tucked safely away in their great stone Pupa, only awakening when blood touches the stone. Awakened, they are terrible to behold. A winged and six-legged insect standing 8-10 feet tall, and weighing as much as a horse. A great and terrible bloody proboscis extends forth from its inhuman face, 4 feet in length. As thick as a quarterstaff, it can impale any man easily, and the Gigaedes can suck every last drop of blood from a full grown human man in 30 seconds. As dangerous as this is, the most dangerous thing about the Gigaedes is it’s horrifying gaze. Those who claim to have somehow survived it say that the black of the Gigaedes’s eyes are as black as Death’s himself. Being caught in that gaze will root you to the spot, leaving you paralyzed and unable to stop the Gigaedes from drinking you dry. Thankfully, these creatures are rare. Gods forbid they should ever start to breed… Instinct: To drink blood and lay eggs.
