I assume that since D&D canonically has souls, this wouldn't work. Only one half would inhabit the creature's soul and grow back and the other half would stay dead.
I have a plan to perma-kill the tarrasque. Defeat the tarrasque, remove its stomach, convert it into a flesh golem. Keep stuffing chunks into the stomach golem until it is dead. Since the stomach is now a golem, it does not become a tarrasque.
Venser's Prodigy 1. charm monster 2. make it stand in a certain place 3. use move earh at the highest level to insantly move lots of earth directly underneath it, above it. 4. it falls, taking loads of damage, then loads of earth falling on it for double that damage, 5. its now dead and trapped in the earth. 6. if its limbs are destroyed, they cant grow back because the earth is in the way.
2:22 *reads abilities* So essentially, its abilities are: "I win even if I lose because I said so." "I'm more likely to win the thing that, as stated before, I will win even if I lose." 'It's not enough that I should succeed. Others should fail." "I break building."

remember what he said about why the tarrasque is the only living thing of it kind? maybe the tarrasque have those spike and armor because it was for fighting, killing, and eating other tarrasque
Well, take the eldest of Dragons. They're of a size or possibly larger then a Tarrasque. A flight of them could, theoretically, kill and eat a Tarrasque. How many of them would die in the doing is the question...
It's been revealed the Rime of the Frostmaiden will include a new magic scroll. A _Scroll of Tarrasque Summoning._ You don't control it, you just summon one nearby and it doesn't stop rampaging until it hits 0 hit points.
It's basically just "alright fuck THIS ENTIRE PLACE AND EVERYONE IN IT" or "I CAST M.A.D. what does that mean? IT MEANS MUTUALLY ASSURED DESTRUCTION AHAHAHHAAH"
Honestly it sounds like Tarrasque just balances out wizards. Just think about spells like goodberry or create water. Wizards create all sort of mass. The Tarrasque just eats the excess mass magic creates.
@@Bidmartinlo good thing the tarrasque has advantage against all spell saves and also +9 wisdom on wisdom saving throws. It would be almost impossible to polymorph a tarrasque
Bowser wishes he was strong enough to be a tarrasque. at best the tarrasque busted a nut one day and a sperm regenerated into Bowser... actually that'd be an interesting plot hook. the tarrasque is upset that it doesn't have a mate, it tries fucking a mountain and the sperm forms micro tarrasques.
D&D Tarrasque: Unstoppable murderous monster that can literally never die Real Mythological Tarasque: Saint Martha tamed the beast with prayers and hymns, then it was killed by frightened townsfolk and didn't even try to fight back (and then everyone felt bad about it and renamed the town Tarascon)
Honestly the Tarasque seems like a random pic for an ultimate monster. Like, why would you choose some random french dragon to be the strongest monster in the monster manual ?

I had heard tales of a tarrasque homeworld, lost somewhere in the outer planes, an expansive wasteland inhabited by 'docile' tarrasques. Roaming about like scaley cows, feeding on what remains of the landscape, indifferent of each other or stray wanderers that pop in. Don't Warp one out however, supposedly it's the planar displacement that throws it into the iconic frenzy the tarrasque is known for

You know what really amazes me about the Tarrasque? That after all of these years of it being the ultimate monster we still don't have an official miniature of it!
I kind of like the idea that the established way to deal with the Terrasque is to dump it through a portal into annother plane, at which point it's their problem, and so it's like a gigantic angry parcel in an interplaner pass the Terrasque game! :D
@@theenderdestruction2362 thats what i liked about 3.x you could apply templates to nasty monsters and make them even nastier! What abyssal lord wouldnt want a barely controlled fiemdish tarrasque to unleash on his or her enemies?
I agree with almost everything but near the end, the dwarves not making a scale sheild for free.... the reward of a dwarf to be able to work with tarrasque scales would honor their clan for generations. They would probably pay you for the chance to prove they are master workmen.
@@halfjack2758 It's sort of the old "I buy, you fly" deal, where you buy the meal and your buddy drives to get it. We go kill it, they make the shields. Everyone happy, no money needed.
I understand that the manual lists all the cool stuff the tarrasque carapace should yield... But... This thing dies so rarely that finding a dwarf or dwarves with any knowledge whatsoever of what the fuck those scales are or what to do with them should itself be an entire campaign. Properly, you should take the components, IF you knew what all to harvest, to a major dwarven city, earn the trust of their king or queen, do 10 quests to earn the favor of their smithing guild so they even look at the remains, then they, and you participate in a 5 day ritual of drugs, liquid mithril, and ecstatic prayer to Moradin to determine how to forge the scales, and THEN the shields get made, with maybe a dozen skill checks required to make them, and at the end, if it was successful, they keep one shield, you get bathed in goat milk by a gaggle of dwarven tit mistresses and given home, title, and a spouse in the hold, and a holiday named after you.
If I ever make a terrasque I will have it with the ability to ignore immunitys not resistance just immunity so something like a clay golem can't defeat it also probably a kind of rock throwing attack and some burrowing speed
Im still new to d&d.....¿isn't a clay golem basically an object animated by magic? In that case wouldn't the tarrasque be able to destroy it by swallowing it(since the lore, or at least this video, says it destroys any kind of magic)
You nerds are thinking too small, get to level 30 (requires some mild homebrewing plus serious dedication since levels aren’t SPECIFICALLY capped but it’s just not acknowledged past 20) and have a Wizard True Polymorph you into a Tarrasque. Add Permanence+Enlarge beforehand for bonus bigness. And profit.
Nifty idea for a BBEG/Tarrasque encounter, that the Tarrasques in all these worlds was actually created, not just having been there, and using this method you create your world’s very first Tarrasque - who promptly devours everything because hungry stupid lizard As for how the tales of Tarrasques spread, idfk, interplanar talk happens so often so why not multiverse theory that shit up
@@xxNightxTrainxx Yarp, can confirm. Spelljammer was an AD&D setting that unified all the different settings. It focused on the ethereal stuff between the various realms, settings, etc, kind of D&D's "space". They keep teasing it being still a thing in 5E, too.
An entire planet of nothing but THE ultimate lifeform. Combination of different settings and/or universes, each one presumably having its own Tarrasque that all ended up on the planet. Is that a JoJo reference?
@@devilboysix66 That's only because they already ate everything else. After a couple of minor brawls that only resulted in regeneration, they all shrugged and made peace.
@@sinnerthesinful552 more like a bard that was so fueled by the will to seduce the tarrasque, that he stopped being a bard and trained for years just to even try and suduce it
I do have to contradict one point. In The Forgotten Realms of Fearun, yes there is only one. In Ebberon, there is only one. It seems in each crystal sphere there is only one of these guys but in the spelljammer setting there is actually a planet with multiple Tarrasque that many theorize is the homeworld of these monstrosities. Now, that just creates more questions if it is true but there is certainly more than one in the mutliverse. Still great video and I love that detail of the diamonds beneath its shell.

Don't think the powers would except the Tarrasque being there for very long. Remember Ravenloft exists for a purpose and the Tarrasque is not a part of that purpose.
Around 16:00 - He says the Tarrasque has 3 "stomachs"; but when he describes them, it almost sounds more like he is describing a gizzard, a stomach, and intestines.
Well most likely it is described in the source material as three stomachs, as the writers most likely don't know their biology. So I think it's fair that he also calls it three stomachs.

@@pungoblin9377 Equtaras might not get you profitable merchandise, but they're a *lot* easier to deal with and less likely to attack you and everything in sight like a Tarrasque who just turned into a baby. They're also cuter.
As a monster hunter player, let me tell you a tale of why that is a horrible idea. Tl:dr we have a regenerating monster whose armor grows into a new member of its species woth the armor wearer inside, which could easily happen with tarrasque armor So basically, theres this big dragon monster called fatalis, hes the strongest monster in the series, with some striking similarities to the tarrasque now that i think about it. But one of those similarities is the whole regeneration thing. Theres this piece of lore that pretty much states that anyone who wears armor made from a fatalis will have ot regenerate all over them, drovong them insane and eventually getting sealed inside the armor. Once someone is sealed in the armor fully, the person disappears and a new fatalis pops up a few days later.
14:30 How do we stop the tarasque? Sips "Okay, now hear me out here; another tarsque!" Other player "Sips, are you still drunk?" Also, #TarasqeCanibalism!
Just pointing this out: majority of tarrasque art has outward facing spines. Which is a defensive mechanism for prey. Keeping that in mind that means there’s something larger than the tarrasque
Horrendous mistake. Where in the abyss?? Demogorgon's throne room?? Orcus's walking city??? Rest assured that wherever the tartasque appears, someone very powerful will be in charge nearby, and will be VERY angry, and will very much love to know who is responsible for this fun incursion into their realm. Vengeance will be certain, what is most definitely not certain however, is what form said vengeance will take, or whether or not it will be a survivable ordeal. Most likely not actually, not many characters survive a surprise trip to the abyss, where they encounter a rampaging tarrasque, and the likewise rampaging lord of that abyssal layer. Plus it's armies of demons, and greater demons. Can you even imagine seeing the tarrasque, and a group of 20 balor's, plus their minions going at it?? Much less the other things that are certain to be there, and just as certain to be beyond mad??
@@yanuchiuchihaanimegamesand3907 Abyss has limitless ultra mighty demons of myriad powers and abilities. Plenty of them powerful enough to rival deities. Eventually a swarm of these things would subdue the tarrasque. I'm sure ot would be able to rampage for quite some time though. 200 Balor's would overwhelm it though. Any layer of the abyss has basically unlimited numbers of all varieties of demons. Each layer is infinite in all directions.
@@faintsmile_1 More like one arch demon and its limitless swarm armies of demons would suffice to imprison it immobile somehow with abyssal magic and they wouldn't care about killing it, they would be content to injure it for eternity. They would like that it regenerates quickly, that means they don't have to heal it themselves to continually torture it. Yeah, demons do that type of shit. So do devils. EDIT: Read Elminster in hell. That will give you an idea of how hopeless it is for even deities like mystra to survive for more than a few hours on even the weakest layer of the abyss, Yes any layer of the abyss is just as hopeless as any layer of hell. At any point in time limitless demons can burst forth from the very floors and ceilings. It's quite expected that unlimited balors with retinue's of demons can and will burst forth from anywhere just for the fact something dares to be there. Even worse, what if it happens to to be a layer that is an infinite ocean of boiling blood, swimming with demons immune to the heat, that all regenerate themselves innately, or a layer of demon insect swarms, perhaps even a layer of acid oceans, demons swimming in the acid, all immune to acid and possible everything else, and all regeneration capable themselves, and the skies swarming with flying horrors that never need to land or rest?? How long would it last against a swarm queen and her legion of demon wasps??? How would it fare to the rotting touch of the tentacles of the great two headed demon lord?? Tarrasque is powerful, but the abyss is limitless in every possible way. It is doom to enter hell or the abyss for even gods.
That would be hilarious if it actually worked. If I ever wind up as a DM, I'm doing a stealth mission where you have to avoid a Tarrasque while going for a key item that you cannot bring to you via magic. Having to fight a Tarrasque in an Antimagic Field... Scary.
@@sayoofthesnowmoonflower8422 but the tarrasque has magic resistance and Legendary resistance AND reflective carapace so the magic spells usually are for buffing and the antimagic field makes their healing stop working
Game Idea: A party of lvl 20 adventurers have found the secrets to slaying the Tarrasque. This party goes around as heroes and always seems to know where the Tarrasque spawns because of their unique scrying abilities created by one of 2 of their lvl 20 wizards (some sort of op ritual exists that only they know about (supposedly)). Your party (the one you're dming for) learns that they aren't actually scrying but instead wishing in the next place that it will regenerate/ pop up on the surface. In this way they use the Tarrasque to farm hella money and hecka amounts of prestige but at the cost of millions and millions of lives, with the risk that one day they might not be able to defeat the Tarrasque. The party you're dming for then has to wish for the regeneration to stop, defeat the party of lvl 20 adventurers and then get rid of the Tarrasque permanently. (Could be a one-shot of lvl 20 party that found this out based on some insane guy theory crafting about the scrying abilities (make it some sort of nerdy yet low level wizard that sounds crazy but actually makes perfect sense) and then go from there) (OR you could have this be a starting point in a random campaign and then once the party reaches level 20 you bring up for the 2000th time that the Tarrasque slaying party has killed them yet again in some other place when suddenly they're stopped by a recurring NPC who acts like the theory crafting guy in the first point).
Just wish for it to be wise and good so he stops rampaging all the time and ignores is hunger ( or starts a big farm). And then if some one else try to do big evil stuff, he comes in and saves the day. And BOOM, there you go! Your DM hates you!
.... I did this once mostly cause ive been planning it for a while I had him be a mysterious king who ruled a smallish kingdom with a HUGE farm like entire contents farm type shit and it's hilarious because the villain finally gets her wish which is to summon the dragon goddess (forgot how to spell her name FUKC) which she did and the king is found to be "booking it to your areas with such great speed the earth itself is shaking wait a minute" and then boom video (title can't spell its name) in complete dragon scaled armor with giant fukc off Lazer cannons on its back (draws are fun and friendly dragons as well) and a entire army at its beck and call, the bbeg pretty much shat a cinder block while the dragon goddess just fights him the good guys one and the bad guys were defeated and a feast was helles

In the 2nd edition book for Spelljammer, Practical Planetology, (SJR4), on page 7, we are introduced to the planet Falx. One of Falx's primary life forms... are Tarrasques. "several hundred" of them, to quote the line on page 8. Interesting reading, @MrRhexx!
fancy that, the major worlds of the prime (the campaign setting worlds that is) all have a Tarrasque on them!!, not sure about eberron, but the other prime Material worlds in fact do have their very own Tarrasque.
HAVEL META>GIANTDAD GIANTAD: HEALTH AND STAMINA 3V3RYTHING YOU NEED Havel: Ok *Kills tarrasque, makes armor and tarrasque tooth* Let's fight Giantdad: "gulp"
Imagine someone does that, then years later somebody else disintegrates the tarrasque. the dust doesn't move, so they think the tarrasque is dead. the guy with the tooth wakes up with his face less than a foot from the nearly regenerated tarrasque's.
The problem is that the tarrasque is the admins kid, so no one is allowed to ban him. That’s why players has to use exploits to get past his invulnerability barrier.
When you have a stealth mission pop up in a campaign: Ok... When the DM tells you you have to sneak through a town that was ravaged by a Tarrasque(which is the main thing you need to avoid): well, shit. Edit: Put the stealth mission in an Antimagic Field and/or give the Tarrasque a fricken Beholder head.
one thing i heard is that in the sp[elljammer setting, there's a whole planet of these things and they're perfectly peaceful gentle giants. it's only the nitrogen/oxygen rich atmosphere of planets like say... the setting where humans live that make them go into super hungry mode and ultra charges their regeneration.

One day, some workers break some stone off, hear some sounds, and the surface of the fossil opens up to reveal a glowing eye. It focuses on you, and finally realization comes to action. You will not survive, you acknowledge as a roar starts thundering throuth the whole mines.
One of my favorite stories from a DM is that one player spent almost the whole campaign being very focused in meditations and a spell he was trying to learn. When they encountered the terrasque, the beast began to charge and the player started an incantation. Just before the beast got to the party, a giant portal opened up to another dimension and it couldn’t stop itself before plummeting into the portal being banished to another dimension.
I heard a similar version. A party entered a colosseum type game and rolled a tarrasque fight. The party was allowed a magical item of their choosing. One wizard chose a candle (forgot what candle, probably magic candle?). As the tarrasque charged, the wizard lit both sides of the candle and opened up a gate where the tarrasque stopped, only sticking its head in up to its neck. Then the wizard snuffed out the candle and the gate closed, chopping the head clean off. I suspect this scenario is just a fabulous story to tell people and not actually something that happened.
@@dizzydial8081 Candle of Invocation maybe? Or something. Also Gate does instantly teleport anything that is more than 50% inside. This way you can not cut anything with it. (if you close Gate, he was still here, you can not put part of yourself through Gate spell, you are either here or there after you put 51% of your body into portal). Also cut of head would just regenerate. So that is very dumb story all around. There are easier ways to win vs Tarrasque
I like how no one NEVER says that a tarrasque can breathe underwater Like, there are adventurers who just killed throwing it in the plane of water and the guy can hunt underwater?
I think it was just assumed it could since if it rose to the surface at the bottom of the ocean, what would happen, it just dies? It kind of needs that.
We took care of one in our campaign by using a wish spell to make it permanantly incorporial and ephemeral. It is existed, and still could be seen, but it was harmless. It became a reminder of the mage who sacrificed his life casting the wish.
but a Tarrasque isnt bipedal (or is it actually? bah idk anymore XD)... tbh I would prefer a Balrog being its own thing (if it isnt already... would be a Pit Fiend count as the D&D analog to the Balrog?)

I love your videos so far! Going on a binge watching them. Thank you for the content! You really do have a special way of explaining everything, and getting new people excited for DnD
Eh, I'd phrase it as: The item occupying the space is both the Tarrasque and the rock at the same time, unless the item is disturbed - Schrodinger's Tarrasque! Of course, it still doesn't work - the item will always be the Tarrasque when disturbed - but it could be applied to any given rock of sufficient size - it can be considered to be both lethal Tarrasque and harmless rock simultaneously, and the only way to collapse the probability wavefunction that represents the possibilities is to disturb the rock. Boom. Science. When talking about a fictional DnD creature. Because I'm a sad excuse for a human being.
*Laugh in Golden Experience Requirem* I wonder if Kars could "evolve" into a superior Tarrasque? Since he has the powers of all lifeforms, but up to eleven.
@@PlanetZoidstar I actually don’t think GER could beat the tarasque, or tusk act 4, GER can reset anything to zero, but really doesn’t have much offensive potential more so than it’s normal form, so while giorno couldn’t die, he couldn’t hurt the tarasque fast enough to kill it. And tusk act 4 uses an attack that may do infinate damage but still needs to hit its opponents to activate, and the tarasques skin is reflective to many spells that shoot similarly to the infinate rotation. So really Johnny cannot activate his power and giorno cannot hurt the tarasque enough to do more damage than it’s regeneration effect. Kars can turn into any creature that exists naturally but the tarasque isn’t really natural, it would be like saying he can turn into celestials, devils and demons, they are living things but they aren’t really from the same dimension so they wouldn’t really count as things he can transform into. This concludes my essay that I spent way to long on
I once had a DnD section with a Tarrasque at the end of our campaign and we had not much that could stop it until I thought: "nothing in THIS world can kill it" I asked then. "what if said thing is not from this world?" It was a bit homebrewed but it got really epic and it was a great fight with an awesome ending. So it was "killed" but it was said that it would keep it down and gone for many eons. So the DM was wanting to have it around for the exciting comeback.

19:37 Karsus' Avatar didnt kill a god. It momentarily robbed Mystryl of a portion of her divine being, severely weakening her connection with the Weave. This caused the Weave to surge and fray without Mystryl to control it. In order to save the Weave from being permanently damaged, Mystryl sacrificed herself to cut off the source of Karsus' spell's power.
The saving part is debatable, as it could be just as much from spite that she killed herself rather than out of the goodness of her heart. The permanently damaged part seems to be justa a justification for the act that other people probably made up. The guy "probably" was a bit unexperienced at being a god, so that's probably why shit went wack for a bit. A bit of time, mind you.

I literally watched this video because I recently started playing Baldur’s Gate 3 and like to learn the lore of games I play BUT I’ve been a huge fan of DotA 2 for the longest and noticed the name of Tarrasque so I thought I watch this. The fact you mention DotA’s “Heart of Tarrasque” is SO cool to me considering how rare it seems for DotA 2 to get any recognition. And when built on certain heroes, it really does make you feel like an immortal beast. Just don’t go into a 1v5 fight unless you know what you’re doing. I personally love building Heart of Tarrasque on Position 3 Earthshaker. His second ability “Enchant Totem” will increase your next right-click attack by 400% at max level but only your BASE damage so items providing bonus damage aren’t taken into account but damage gained from your primary stat, Strength, is and Heart of Tarrasque provides +45 Strength. Add that along with other high Strength items and Daedalus and you can literally one-shot enemy heroes. The satisfaction of seeing your enemy’s health bar turn completely white is sublime. Just walk around and delete some sorry support out of the game. 😂
Nicely done. The only times I've seen a GM use this beast in game (I'm talking about home games, not modules or anything) was as a kind of walking catastrophe. The whole point wasn't to defeat the creature at all, merely to evacuate innocents and save everything they could; the way in which the beast moved was very simply to walk in a straight line, snatching up everything in reach. Sort of like a slow moving landslide, or maybe a walking F5 tornado, was the way she described it. This same GM implied that there was a single Tarrasque in the entire multiverse: not just the planet, the whole cosmos! That would probably stretch out the space between incidents on specific worlds - or not... I think she also decided to describe the creature's hibernation as taking place (effectively at least) in an extradimensional space. The particular incident of its arrival in her game was triggered by some idiot evil wizard managing to summon it (she didn't explain HOW) which of course woke it up, and it was somewhat annoyed...and promptly ate the wizard. Then stayed up a while for a snack...
So recently when we were trying to find a solution to some weird magic being cast on the town we were staying in i said my idea to destroy the spell. "A Tarrasque."
That sounds like throwing the baby out with the bathwater. (Which I'm sure is the joke, but I can imagine that wasn't too funny for some of your party.)
Thanks again my friend. I've always enjoyed hearing about the Tarrasque. Sure, there's multiple ways to kill it, especially since it has no ranged attack but I like the idea for a campaign that has it as the BBEG at or near the end. It's a lot of fun doing prep work to set up for the confrontation. You might even have the opportunity to establish the hiring of an Ancient Dragon that can essentially circle above it and nuke it from orbit. That quest ( or similar type) could be as much fun as the battle itself! (keeping in mind that speed is of the essence, since it's eating people while you are in prep mode, heh).
You'd need to feed it three goodberries, which would buy you a grace period of three days while it slept. Otherwise, it won't go to sleep because it hasn't gotten enough food to rest on.
Azzy what’s stopping someone from just getting an entire basket of like 50 Goodberries? Actually no the magic effects get removed from the Goodberry, oof.
@@blubbernibble9111 true, so, if the goodberries were originally some kind of cheap berry,he might just seek the offender out and eat him.Cause why wouldn't a tarrasque hold a grudge about food
Karthas' Avatar is the name, I think. Either a 12th or 13th level spell, (don't recall which, but I'm pretty sure its 13th level.) The full details aren't understood, but it required a gold dragon's gizzard, tarrasque blood, and the bile of a 12 headed hydra, among other rare components. Once prepared, the caster can take the divinity of a god, for a short period of time, with a snap. It's also known as Karsas' Folly, because it got him killed, along with the goddess of magic. (He is now a vestige you can make a pact with as a warlock, known as the Red Stone. He is a patron to alien mind warlocks in 5e, I think.) The new goddess has changed the weave so it's impossible to cast, and sent his research notes on a journey to the end of the universe... *allegedly.*
Cut a tarrasque into two perfect halves. grow a second tarrasque. Ignore Ian Malcom's warnings, realize they can now mate, cause tarrasic park.
I assume that since D&D canonically has souls, this wouldn't work. Only one half would inhabit the creature's soul and grow back and the other half would stay dead.
I have a plan to perma-kill the tarrasque. Defeat the tarrasque, remove its stomach, convert it into a flesh golem. Keep stuffing chunks into the stomach golem until it is dead. Since the stomach is now a golem, it does not become a tarrasque.
You did it. You crazy son of a bitch, you did it.

But...
This thing dies so rarely that finding a dwarf or dwarves with any knowledge whatsoever of what the fuck those scales are or what to do with them should itself be an entire campaign. Properly, you should take the components, IF you knew what all to harvest, to a major dwarven city, earn the trust of their king or queen, do 10 quests to earn the favor of their smithing guild so they even look at the remains, then they, and you participate in a 5 day ritual of drugs, liquid mithril, and ecstatic prayer to Moradin to determine how to forge the scales, and THEN the shields get made, with maybe a dozen skill checks required to make them, and at the end, if it was successful, they keep one shield, you get bathed in goat milk by a gaggle of dwarven tit mistresses and given home, title, and a spouse in the hold, and a holiday named after you.

Tl:dr we have a regenerating monster whose armor grows into a new member of its species woth the armor wearer inside, which could easily happen with tarrasque armor
So basically, theres this big dragon monster called fatalis, hes the strongest monster in the series, with some striking similarities to the tarrasque now that i think about it. But one of those similarities is the whole regeneration thing. Theres this piece of lore that pretty much states that anyone who wears armor made from a fatalis will have ot regenerate all over them, drovong them insane and eventually getting sealed inside the armor. Once someone is sealed in the armor fully, the person disappears and a new fatalis pops up a few days later.

Horrendous mistake. Where in the abyss?? Demogorgon's throne room?? Orcus's walking city???

Vengeance will be certain, what is most definitely not certain however, is what form said vengeance will take, or whether or not it will be a survivable ordeal. Most likely not actually, not many characters survive a surprise trip to the abyss, where they encounter a rampaging tarrasque, and the likewise rampaging lord of that abyssal layer. Plus it's armies of demons, and greater demons. Can you even imagine seeing the tarrasque, and a group of 20 balor's, plus their minions going at it?? Much less the other things that are certain to be there, and just as certain to be beyond mad??

@@faintsmile_1 More like one arch demon and its limitless swarm armies of demons would suffice to imprison it immobile somehow with abyssal magic and they wouldn't care about killing it, they would be content to injure it for eternity.

That will give you an idea of how hopeless it is for even deities like mystra to survive for more than a few hours on even the weakest layer of the abyss, Yes any layer of the abyss is just as hopeless as any layer of hell. At any point in time limitless demons can burst forth from the very floors and ceilings. It's quite expected that unlimited balors with retinue's of demons can and will burst forth from anywhere just for the fact something dares to be there. Even worse, what if it happens to to be a layer that is an infinite ocean of boiling blood, swimming with demons immune to the heat, that all regenerate themselves innately, or a layer of demon insect swarms, perhaps even a layer of acid oceans, demons swimming in the acid, all immune to acid and possible everything else, and all regeneration capable themselves, and the skies swarming with flying horrors that never need to land or rest?? How long would it last against a swarm queen and her legion of demon wasps??? How would it fare to the rotting touch of the tentacles of the great two headed demon lord??

Game Idea: A party of lvl 20 adventurers have found the secrets to slaying the Tarrasque. This party goes around as heroes and always seems to know where the Tarrasque spawns because of their unique scrying abilities created by one of 2 of their lvl 20 wizards (some sort of op ritual exists that only they know about (supposedly)). Your party (the one you're dming for) learns that they aren't actually scrying but instead wishing in the next place that it will regenerate/ pop up on the surface. In this way they use the Tarrasque to farm hella money and hecka amounts of prestige but at the cost of millions and millions of lives, with the risk that one day they might not be able to defeat the Tarrasque. The party you're dming for then has to wish for the regeneration to stop, defeat the party of lvl 20 adventurers and then get rid of the Tarrasque permanently. (Could be a one-shot of lvl 20 party that found this out based on some insane guy theory crafting about the scrying abilities (make it some sort of nerdy yet low level wizard that sounds crazy but actually makes perfect sense) and then go from there) (OR you could have this be a starting point in a random campaign and then once the party reaches level 20 you bring up for the 2000th time that the Tarrasque slaying party has killed them yet again in some other place when suddenly they're stopped by a recurring NPC who acts like the theory crafting guy in the first point).
I feel like this is a very Brandon Sanderson way to approach the tarrasque
Just wish for it to be wise and good so he stops rampaging all the time and ignores is hunger ( or starts a big farm). And then if some one else try to do big evil stuff, he comes in and saves the day.
And BOOM, there you go! Your DM hates you!

I did this once mostly cause ive been planning it for a while I had him be a mysterious king who ruled a smallish kingdom with a HUGE farm like entire contents farm type shit and it's hilarious because the villain finally gets her wish which is to summon the dragon goddess (forgot how to spell her name FUKC) which she did and the king is found to be "booking it to your areas with such great speed the earth itself is shaking wait a minute" and then boom video (title can't spell its name) in complete dragon scaled armor with giant fukc off Lazer cannons on its back (draws are fun and friendly dragons as well) and a entire army at its beck and call, the bbeg pretty much shat a cinder block while the dragon goddess just fights him the good guys one and the bad guys were defeated and a feast was helles

When you have a stealth mission pop up in a campaign: Ok...
When the DM tells you you have to sneak through a town that was ravaged by a Tarrasque(which is the main thing you need to avoid): well, shit.
Edit: Put the stealth mission in an Antimagic Field and/or give the Tarrasque a fricken Beholder head.
Thanks, I was thinking on a way to make my game cooler
one thing i heard is that in the sp[elljammer setting, there's a whole planet of these things and they're perfectly peaceful gentle giants. it's only the nitrogen/oxygen rich atmosphere of planets like say... the setting where humans live that make them go into super hungry mode and ultra charges their regeneration.

Absolutely loved this video and this series, could you do the Kraken next it has always been a mystery to me
I'm doing a campaign with a Kraken in it right now, so that would be awesome!
My question is HOW THE HELL DOES IT HAVE SO MUCH CHARISMA?! (at least in 3.5)
@@Preaplanes It has 20 charisma in 5e which is max for a PC. My hope is that it'll be explained in a video like this, but the Kraken seems like a hyper intelligent being so maybe it has such high charisma for the intimidation skill?
I was thinking for Charisma saves against spells like Banishment
@@braidenwheeler It was above normal for a PC in 3.5, and resistances were separate from attribute stats. Cha didn't grant ANY bonuses to saving throws at all, just wis, con and dex to Will, Fortitude and Reflex respectively. So it was definitely not to help saving throws.
Imagine mining into some rock deep underground and you accidentally hit the Tarrasque in the eye, waking it up
Imagine mining and hitting a strange rock that cannot be broken, your comrades start mining around it to reveal what seems like a giant claw.
The Superviser says it's probably a fossil so go on. One day, some workers break some stone off, hear some sounds, and the surface of the fossil opens up to reveal a glowing eye. It focuses on you, and finally realization comes to action. You will not survive, you acknowledge as a roar starts thundering throuth the whole mines.
Nothing can escape the three stomaches, besides dealing 60 damage to it while your inside of it BUT WE DON’T TALK ABOUT THAT.
Nothing not nobody
I headcanon that the previous Tarrask were digest inside this one. So that the only thing that can kill a Tarrask is the stomac of a Tarrask.
technically thats the gullet he mentioned the expanding gullet.
Itd heal a clay golem
One of my favorite stories from a DM is that one player spent almost the whole campaign being very focused in meditations and a spell he was trying to learn. When they encountered the terrasque, the beast began to charge and the player started an incantation. Just before the beast got to the party, a giant portal opened up to another dimension and it couldn’t stop itself before plummeting into the portal being banished to another dimension.
I heard a similar version.
A party entered a colosseum type game and rolled a tarrasque fight. The party was allowed a magical item of their choosing. One wizard chose a candle (forgot what candle, probably magic candle?). As the tarrasque charged, the wizard lit both sides of the candle and opened up a gate where the tarrasque stopped, only sticking its head in up to its neck. Then the wizard snuffed out the candle and the gate closed, chopping the head clean off.
I suspect this scenario is just a fabulous story to tell people and not actually something that happened.
@@dizzydial8081 Candle of Invocation maybe? Or something. Also Gate does instantly teleport anything that is more than 50% inside. This way you can not cut anything with it. (if you close Gate, he was still here, you can not put part of yourself through Gate spell, you are either here or there after you put 51% of your body into portal).
Also cut of head would just regenerate. So that is very dumb story all around. There are easier ways to win vs Tarrasque
5:00
Yoshikage Kira: So it's the same type of stand as Heart Attack...
I like how no one NEVER says that a tarrasque can breathe underwater
Like, there are adventurers who just killed throwing it in the plane of water and the guy can hunt underwater?
I think it was just assumed it could since if it rose to the surface at the bottom of the ocean, what would happen, it just dies? It kind of needs that.
It regenerates it's suffocation.

We took care of one in our campaign by using a wish spell to make it permanantly incorporial and ephemeral. It is existed, and still could be seen, but it was harmless. It became a reminder of the mage who sacrificed his life casting the wish.
When you combine a Dragon, Godzilla, and all Natural Disasters you end up with the Mighty Tarrasque!!!
So TLDR: Dwarves dug too deep again.
but a Tarrasque isnt bipedal (or is it actually? bah idk anymore XD)... tbh I would prefer a Balrog being its own thing (if it isnt already... would be a Pit Fiend count as the D&D analog to the Balrog?)
The Balor is, as evidenced not only by it's similar name, but it's mane of fire, fire sword, appearance, and a whip.
@@S.k.y.n.e.t. yeah kinda hard to overlook the similiarities between the two but didnt want to jump to conclusions since a Balor is a demon from Irish folklore also.

The rock is neither Tarrasque nor the Tarrasque is the Rock.
Tarrasque = Schrodinger
No, wait, your comment just implies the Tarrasque is not the rock.
*gasp!*
That's not how that law works.
Schrodinger's monster.
Eh, I'd phrase it as:
The item occupying the space is both the Tarrasque and the rock at the same time, unless the item is disturbed - Schrodinger's Tarrasque!
Of course, it still doesn't work - the item will always be the Tarrasque when disturbed - but it could be applied to any given rock of sufficient size - it can be considered to be both lethal Tarrasque and harmless rock simultaneously, and the only way to collapse the probability wavefunction that represents the possibilities is to disturb the rock.
Boom. Science. When talking about a fictional DnD creature.
Because I'm a sad excuse for a human being.
"The Tarasque cannot be defeated indefinitely"
*laugh in TUSK ACT 4*
*Laugh in Golden Experience Requirem*
I wonder if Kars could "evolve" into a superior Tarrasque? Since he has the powers of all lifeforms, but up to eleven.
@@PlanetZoidstar I actually don’t think GER could beat the tarasque, or tusk act 4, GER can reset anything to zero, but really doesn’t have much offensive potential more so than it’s normal form, so while giorno couldn’t die, he couldn’t hurt the tarasque fast enough to kill it. And tusk act 4 uses an attack that may do infinate damage but still needs to hit its opponents to activate, and the tarasques skin is reflective to many spells that shoot similarly to the infinate rotation. So really Johnny cannot activate his power and giorno cannot hurt the tarasque enough to do more damage than it’s regeneration effect. Kars can turn into any creature that exists naturally but the tarasque isn’t really natural, it would be like saying he can turn into celestials, devils and demons, they are living things but they aren’t really from the same dimension so they wouldn’t really count as things he can transform into. This concludes my essay that I spent way to long on
@@theholypopechodeii4367 I know but GER doesn’t actually have any offensive abilities greater than regular golden experience, he just can’t be hurt.

I once had a DnD section with a Tarrasque at the end of our campaign and we had not much that could stop it until I thought: "nothing in THIS world can kill it" I asked then. "what if said thing is not from this world?" It was a bit homebrewed but it got really epic and it was a great fight with an awesome ending. So it was "killed" but it was said that it would keep it down and gone for many eons. So the DM was wanting to have it around for the exciting comeback.
Wait so howd you deal with it? You just went from "i got an idea" straight to "it worked" and didnt tell us the plan
@@BobThePenguin. Summon something of the equal or more powerful being from outside the DnD realms. As for what it was, well let your imagination help with that. I am sure any creative mind would be able to find many things that could be fun, exciting or just epic enough to fit in.

19:37 Karsus' Avatar didnt kill a god. It momentarily robbed Mystryl of a portion of her divine being, severely weakening her connection with the Weave. This caused the Weave to surge and fray without Mystryl to control it. In order to save the Weave from being permanently damaged, Mystryl sacrificed herself to cut off the source of Karsus' spell's power.
Sounds like indirectly killing her, with extra steps, out of lack of options - as she had none.
The saving part is debatable, as it could be just as much from spite that she killed herself rather than out of the goodness of her heart.
The permanently damaged part seems to be justa a justification for the act that other people probably made up.
The guy "probably" was a bit unexperienced at being a god, so that's probably why shit went wack for a bit. A bit of time, mind you.
Given a bit of time, the crazy bastard would have probably been able to keep shit from going haywire.
Gods, man. Gods. Hypocrisy and gods.
@@asdergold1
In fact Karsus and Mystral had fused, and this "new god" instantly knew the only way to avoid permanent damage was to sacrifice to make a new goddess (Mystra)
Killed her by proxy because she had to sacrifice herself.

I literally watched this video because I recently started playing Baldur’s Gate 3 and like to learn the lore of games I play BUT I’ve been a huge fan of DotA 2 for the longest and noticed the name of Tarrasque so I thought I watch this.
The fact you mention DotA’s “Heart of Tarrasque” is SO cool to me considering how rare it seems for DotA 2 to get any recognition. And when built on certain heroes, it really does make you feel like an immortal beast. Just don’t go into a 1v5 fight unless you know what you’re doing.
I personally love building Heart of Tarrasque on Position 3 Earthshaker. His second ability “Enchant Totem” will increase your next right-click attack by 400% at max level but only your BASE damage so items providing bonus damage aren’t taken into account but damage gained from your primary stat, Strength, is and Heart of Tarrasque provides +45 Strength. Add that along with other high Strength items and Daedalus and you can literally one-shot enemy heroes.
The satisfaction of seeing your enemy’s health bar turn completely white is sublime. Just walk around and delete some sorry support out of the game. 😂
Nicely done.
The only times I've seen a GM use this beast in game (I'm talking about home games, not modules or anything) was as a kind of walking catastrophe. The whole point wasn't to defeat the creature at all, merely to evacuate innocents and save everything they could; the way in which the beast moved was very simply to walk in a straight line, snatching up everything in reach. Sort of like a slow moving landslide, or maybe a walking F5 tornado, was the way she described it.
This same GM implied that there was a single Tarrasque in the entire multiverse: not just the planet, the whole cosmos! That would probably stretch out the space between incidents on specific worlds - or not...
I think she also decided to describe the creature's hibernation as taking place (effectively at least) in an extradimensional space. The particular incident of its arrival in her game was triggered by some idiot evil wizard managing to summon it (she didn't explain HOW) which of course woke it up, and it was somewhat annoyed...and promptly ate the wizard. Then stayed up a while for a snack...
Sounds like your DM is a clever person.

I love seeing the first edition pictures in these videos. They make me laugh every time!
Great and informative videos as always Mr. Rhexx. You've helped make my games that much more interesting.
So recently when we were trying to find a solution to some weird magic being cast on the town we were staying in i said my idea to destroy the spell.
"A Tarrasque."
That sounds like throwing the baby out with the bathwater. (Which I'm sure is the joke, but I can imagine that wasn't too funny for some of your party.)
You were thinking to send a cataclysm over a puny mission? What are you? Only neutral?
"No Tim, we have not reached the Tarrasque Threshold quite yet".
Thanks again my friend. I've always enjoyed hearing about the Tarrasque. Sure, there's multiple ways to kill it, especially since it has no ranged attack but I like the idea for a campaign that has it as the BBEG at or near the end. It's a lot of fun doing prep work to set up for the confrontation.
You might even have the opportunity to establish the hiring of an Ancient Dragon that can essentially circle above it and nuke it from orbit. That quest ( or similar type) could be as much fun as the battle itself! (keeping in mind that speed is of the essence, since it's eating people while you are in prep mode, heh).
Only way to “satiate” the terrasque.. have a Druid feed it 1 goodberry.
You'd need to feed it three goodberries, which would buy you a grace period of three days while it slept. Otherwise, it won't go to sleep because it hasn't gotten enough food to rest on.

Would love to hear more about this, "Most powerful spell ever cast".
Karthas' Avatar is the name, I think. Either a 12th or 13th level spell, (don't recall which, but I'm pretty sure its 13th level.) The full details aren't understood, but it required a gold dragon's gizzard, tarrasque blood, and the bile of a 12 headed hydra, among other rare components. Once prepared, the caster can take the divinity of a god, for a short period of time, with a snap.
It's also known as Karsas' Folly, because it got him killed, along with the goddess of magic. (He is now a vestige you can make a pact with as a warlock, known as the Red Stone. He is a patron to alien mind warlocks in 5e, I think.)
The new goddess has changed the weave so it's impossible to cast, and sent his research notes on a journey to the end of the universe... *allegedly.*
