SPECIAL ABILITIES

Earth Glide (Su)

A mythic gug can expend one use of mythic power as a swift action to gain the earth glide special ability for one minute.

Eviscerating Rend (Ex)

When a mythic gug deals rend damage, it can expend one use of mythic power as a swift action to deal 1d6 points of Constitution damage and cause the target to become staggered for 1d6 rounds as their body is brutally ripped open and their insides scooped out in a bloody flourish. A DC 25 Fortitude save reduces Constitution damage to 1 point and staggering to 1 round. The save DC is Strength based.

Entangling Evisceration (Ex)

When a mythic gug uses its eviscerating rend ability and deals Constitution damage to a living creature, the gug can expend one use of mythic power as a free action to give its victim the entangled condition as intestines and other internal organs spill out and dangle about the victim’s legs and feet. The entangled condition lasts for one minute or until the victim receives at least 20 hit points of magical healing. Additionally, each round the victim remains entangled the victim must succeed on a DC 25 Fortitude save or take 1 point of Strength, Dexterity, and Constitution damage. The save DC is Strength based.

Treasure standard

This towering menace has a horrible, vertically aligned mouth and arms that split at the elbows into twin clawed hands.

Gugs are inhuman monstrosities that dwell in the deep places of the world. Whether they were banished to the dark lands by ancient gods or the light-loving races they terrorized, or perhaps were brought to the deep realms by dark powers from some even more inhuman nightmare realm, is unknown, but gugs are loathed by other races for their carnal rites of slaughter. Gugs are 16 feet tall and weigh nearly 2,000 pounds.
