Big T herself finally got an upgrade; the tarrasque was one of my oldest remaining stat blocks, and it feels great to finally do it justice. This is the main format I'm looking to use for monsters, with physical descriptions, drives, and detailed creature size; there'll still be a few more 2014-formatted monsters coming up, but it just feels like a good time to unleash the tarrasque:

I also spent far too long putting together an alternate spellcasting system for 5e inspired by Dungeon Crawl Classics; I'm aware it won't be most people's thing, but that's why I hid it in the shadow of the tarrasque. If you like this and want to see it expanded, let me know.

I think both are amazing, I will definitely be using the Roll to Cast system for something. Just to be sure: is the idea for the Tarrasque to have 0 speed unless it uses its Bonus Action to increase it?

I second the Roll to Cast system as simply brilliant. Even if people only use it for the descriptions and the crital fails it will make spells feel more real, individual and punishing to fail. As always the new stats the tarrasque are great and breed new life into a classic yet tired monster. Please keep up the fantastic work

If there is one thing I personally would love to see in the future l, it would be a module made for "the forge" so that your monsters could be added straight into games without having to update through foundry.

I would be way down for fleshing out the roll to cast spell list. Maybe adding a few spells a week and just getting it done over time?

What are the odds, I’m running a Tarrasque campaign right now!! I’m a little wary because I know the Tarrasque is typically kind of just a wall of HP and Dmg. Any advice for giving this some interesting tactics?

I must have missed something, are the descriptors in the knowledge checks equivalent to DCs?
