The stone colossus, commonly called Talus. 1/5

Appearance

The talus, being a stone-based lifeform, spends most of its time inert, half buried in the ground and appearing to be nothing more than a large rock.

When alerted, it will rise from the earth and for itself into a roughly bipedal form with a large body lacking differentiation between head and torso, a small hip, relatively tiny legs, and large arms which it can reform from its environment in case of loss.

Behavior

If the threat is close, it will attempt a sweeping, crushing motion to knock the opponent off his feet, or faceplant to overwhelm the opponent with its massive weight. If the threat has gained some distance, it will throw its boulder-like arms at the opponent.

The creature is immune to damage from the elements, but can be subdued temporarily with explosives. The small, ore-rich deposit on its head or back is the colossus' only weak point, and it will do everything in its power to keep an opponent at its front. Other attacks vary by subtype.

The talus is best observed from the air. Failing that, a suitably tall cliff with lots of room to move will suffice. A more daring adventurer may choose to climb onto the beast itself, though this is very dangerous and should only be attempted with adequate medical supplies to hand, as it will vibrate its body violently to shake the offender off.

Subtypes

Luminous

This talus' ore deposit is primarily composed of luminous stone, the very same stones used to craft the massive sculpture that is Zora's Domain. Its behavior does not vary from the common stone talus.

Rare

This talus' ore deposit is primarily composed of rare gems. Its behavior does not vary from the common stone talus.

Igneo

Igneo taluses make their home in the searing lava of the Death Mountain area. It it too hot to touch, even with a liberal application of fireproof elixir. Its distance attacks also cause severe burns. Ice arrows are recommended for close observation.

Frost

This talus coats its body in enchanted frost, freezing any being that dares approach. Its long distance attacks also carry this freezing ability. Fire arrows are advised for close observation.

Pebblit

These are, essentially, Baby Taluses. They are small enough to be picked up and moved, but they do not like it and tend to explode. They are surprisingly quick. The come in stone, igneo, and frost varieties.
