Homebrew echet-swine Species Details

An horrific combination of DNA from Bugbears, Goliaths, Shifters, and Tortles. This being was found after the raid of a mad scientist lab after he angered the local town folk. Large furry body with scale around key vital parts. The scales able to change color but not texture. Large stumpy hands allow for a very good grip on uneven and/or jagged surface do to it's grip strength, seemingly also allowing it to grip large tree's but only able to climb slowly do to it's large body size. while able to crush small rocks with ease (and most small objects). Crushing medium objects (spanning smaller than 3ft in any direction) will cause the Beast to take damage (1D4) do to it's poor skeletal structure. This does not mean it's weak, large muscle mass allow it to take many hits with no effect. it's overall size makes it a large target and it's inability to make accurate hits makes it a difficult fighter but very good at protecting those around it. there's what looks like a small tattoo on it's left forearm "Echet-Swine-V13". seemingly like it was not the first to be made, but nothing else like it was found during that faithful day.

It's not very smart, often using broken common language. often fooled by all illusion magic (disadvantage -4) it's very easy to spook while also easy to when scared. often will strike out of fear (viewed as intimidation after every strike).
