Description
Hairless gorilla-like ogres with innumerable bladders filled with poison & decked with venomous quills.
I'm making a setting & working on monsters. I like making them but I'm not sure about assigning CRs.
Don’t worry about it. Challenge rating is pretty nonsensical anyway, any DM worth their salt will be able to figure the monster out. (As I’m writing this it’s occurring to me that you posted that comment three years ago and may well be dead, but I wanna show support anyway.)
