Kuduu

A giant lumbering beast, its shoulders taller than two humans. A great horned head sits on a thick neck which is covered in a striped mane. Its legs are bigger around than an ancient oak. It looks at you with small intelligent eyes, then goes back to grazing.

Trample

As a full-round action, a creature with this special attack can move up to twice its speed and literally run over any opponents at least one size category smaller than itself. The creature merely has to move over the opponents in its path; any creature whose space is completely covered by the trampling creature’s space is subject to the trample attack. If a target’s space is larger than 5 feet, it is only considered trampled if the trampling creature moves over all the squares it occupies. If the trampling creature moves over only some of a target’s space, the target can make an attack of opportunity against the trampling creature at a -4 penalty. A trampling creature that accidentally ends its movement in an illegal space returns to the last legal position it occupied, or the closest legal position, if there’s a legal position that’s closer.

 

A trample attack deals bludgeoning damage (the creature’s slam damage + 1½ times its Str modifier). The creature’s descriptive text gives the exact amount.

 

Kyzk

Long tusks and matching horns is what strikes most about the giant Kyzk of the plains. Hunted and revered, it is indeed a beast to remember.

 

A Kyzk is a large furry creature which roams the warm lands of the south. It is know as a staple of hunters in the area, not only for its flavorful meat, but also as a sport. Kyzks stand much taller than a man, and its great horns have gored many an unlucky hunter. They are muscled and thick skinned under their fur, but also fast for its size.

Golem, Lesser Flesh

 

These are impossible to find and study, usually having been animated by dark magics and then left to rot by its creator after its mission is complete.

 

There’s no reasoning with an animated creature such as this, because its existence is for one purpose. This is a rare case where I support killing without thought–because truly, what have we really killed? A mere object animated by magic.

 

Still, I do wonder if they can feel.
