It was generally immensely difficult to injure.

It was also immune to the ill effects of fire, poison, or disease. The tarrasque had the ability to instill nearby creatures with terrible fear, rendering them incapable of action. It also had the ability to dramatically hinder the ability of creatures within 200 feet (61 meters) of it to fly, reducing their speed substantially while also bringing them down to a maximum altitude of twenty feet, which put them within the beast's reach. Among the most terrifying of these was its ability to ignore any natural resistances its victims had, cutting right through them with its deadly attacks. The tarrasque had many unusual abilities gifted to it by its creators. As a result, it was merely neutral in alignment. Behavior Īlthough the tarrasque was indisputably a force of pure destruction, it was not truly evil or even chaotic by nature, lacking the consciousness necessary for it to take a moral stance. 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. The tarrasque was impossible to frighten or charm and had resistances to every kind of damage imaginable. The tarrasque also had two small eyes, but it did not rely on these for its primary method of sensory perception-if they were blinded or removed, it was effectively unhindered. The tarrasque was an enormous abomination, roughly the size of an ancient dragon, with two long horns extending from its forehead, a thick carapace, mighty tail, many spikes covering its large body, and a wide, toothy maw.
