The pudding's attacks score a critical hit on a die roll of 18–20, and on a critical hit it rolls damage dice three times, instead of twice. Corrosive Form. A creature that touches the pudding or hits it with a melee attack while within 5 feet of it takes 4 (1d8) acid damage. Any nonmagical weapon made of metal or wood that hits the pudding corrodes.

Nonmagical ammunition made of metal or wood that hits the pudding is destroyed after dealing damage. Death Throes. When the pudding dies, it explodes, and each creature within 30 feet of it must make a DC 19 Dexterity saving throw, taking 70 (20d6) acid damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. Metal and wooden objects within the area of effect are subjected to the pudding's Corrosive Form trait. Legendary Resistance (3/Day).

Frightful Presence. Each creature of the pudding's choice that is within 120 feet of the pudding and aware of it must succeed on a DC 15 Wisdom saving throw or become frightened for 1 minute. A creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success. If a creature's saving throw is successful or the effect ends for it, the creature is immune to the pudding's Frightful Presence for the next 24 hours. REACTIONSSlough.

The pudding regains spent legendary actions at the start of its turn. Detect. The pudding makes a Wisdom (Perception) check. |
A black pudding with the kaiju template applied to it. This gigantic mass of black ooze slowly creeps along, dissolving and absorbing anything in its path. It can slough off larger-than-normal but otherwise ordinary black puddings, and easily regains the lost material by "eating" everything it dissolves. When it creeps through a city, any buildings in its path are toppled as their foundations are completely eaten away, causing mass destruction. |
