Not just anybody can do this, you know. Well, okay, they can if they have this pattern. But otherwise...

Giant Creature Pattern (+2 CR)

Size: changes by 1 size category
Subtype: add Giant to subtypes


'Giant Creature' is a pattern that can be added to any creature that is much larger and tougher than normal. Gigantic lost valleys full of huge animals, extra-beefy alligators, terrifyingly huge aberrations, Vampires made from Frost Giants, all can be modeled with the Giant Creature pattern. Giant Creature can be used to create pre-historic throwbacks, memorable boss monsters, or even signify some terrible alchemical experiment gone wrong. In more fanciful campaigns, maybe creatures are infested with clockwork mechanisms that bulk them out to gigantic size, or all the bad guys wear 'meat suits' gifted from some life-aspected God gone horribly wrong. The possibilities are nearly endless, so use this pattern for all it's worth!

This powerful creature is very, very, large, especially when compared to others of it's ilk. Dangerous, and not normal!
