Almega (4e Creature)

Almega

Almega is warforged created to be nothing but a monster of pure destruction, easily matching the Tarrasque in pure destructive power, despite his much smaller stature.

Almega Tactics

Almega will always begin by using his Vorpal Doom power on the enemy he feels is the least able to take a devastating blow. He continues to use this power until he hits with it, then following up with his other attacks, taking full advantage of his devastating critical hits and his new critical range of 19 - 20.

Almega Lore

A character knows the following information with a successful Arcana check.

DC 20: If Almega is defeated, his body destroys itself while his immortal soul reincarnates itself into a new body, ready to destroy once more.

DC 25: Almega was forged by the gods themselves to combat the primordial's engine of destruction, the Tarrasque. However, Almega soon proved to be far too much for even the gods to handle.

DC 30: Some arcane engineers believe that, like today's warforged, Almega has a consciousness deep inside of him. However, his destructive impulses and chaotic patterns of attack make him seem only like a monster of annihilation.

Encounter Groups

Almega is never found near allies, as he destroys everything in his path.
