Legendary Actions

The Corrupted Giant Ape can take 3 legendary actions per turn, choosing from the options below. Only one legendary action can be used at a time and only at the end of another creature's turn.

  • Slam. The Corrupted Giant Ape makes a slam attack
  • Move. The Corrupted Giant Ape moves up to its speed without provoking opportunity attacks
  • Frightful Presence. Each creature within 30 ft. of the Corrupted Giant Ape and aware of it must succeed on a DC 17 Wisdom saving throw or become frightened for 1 minute. A creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success. If a creature's saving throw is successful or the effect ends for it, the creature is immune to the Corrupted Giant Ape's Frightful Presence for the next 24 hours.

Description

The Corrupted Giant Ape is a terrifying sight to behold. Its once-silver fur is now matted and blackened, and venomous snakes writhe beneath its skin. Its eyes burn with a malevolent intelligence, and its mouth drips with venom. This beast was once a peaceful creature, but the Yuan-Ti have twisted and corrupted it, using their dark magic to make it a formidable guardian for their temple. The ape's body is covered in thick calluses, and its muscles bulge with unnatural strength. Its roar shakes the very earth, and its fists can crush stone. Those who dare to approach the temple must face the wrath of the Corrupted Giant Ape and its venomous bite, which can kill even the hardiest of adventurers.
