# Foulwing >[!rimg]+ *This creature’s squat posture and bloated body suggest the shape of an enormous, winged toad, about 20 feet long and 8 feet high at the shoulder. Its skin is black and covered with wriggling growths shaped like small horns. Red eyes gleam malevolently from its long, narrow, multi-jawed face.* <div class="grid-container"><div class="MON">Foulwing</div> <div class="CR">CR 5 (1,600 XP)</div> <div class="SOU">Lost Empires of Faerûn pg. 172</div> <div class="SYS">Dungeons & Dragons 3.5</div></div> NE Huge Aberration **Init** +1 **Senses** darkvision 60 ft.; **Perception** +12 #### defense **AC** 17, 9 touch, 16 flat-footed (+1 Dex, +8 natural, -2 size) **hp** 57 (6d8+30) **Fort** +7, **Refl** +3, **Will** +5 **Feint** 14, **Demoralize** 16 #### offense **Speed** 20 ft., fly 30 ft.

Creatures within the cone must succeed at a DC 18 Reflex save or be blinded and stunned for 1 round. #### tactics Foulwings hunt from the air, hurling their massive bodies onto potential prey and tearing with their jaws while battering at their victims with the claws on their wings. Drow and other evil humanoids frequently tame and ride foulwings as war steeds. #### ecology **Terrain** Any land and underground **Organization** Solitary, pair, flock (3–5) **Treasure** None **Advancement** 7–16 HD (Huge); 17–18 HD (Gargantuan) A foulwing is a grotesquely misshapen predator that loves nothing more than tearing flesh from bone with its three toothy jaws. A foulwing’s toadlike body is about 20 feet long and 8 feet high at the shoulder, and the creature weighs about 8,000 pounds. Its black skin is covered with wriggling growths shaped like small horns. The foulwing’s legs end in rubbery fingers useful for clinging to uneven surfaces but ineffectual in combat, and its black, leathery wings are tipped with sharp claws. The creature’s long, narrow head ends in a snout with a single nostril surrounded by three needle-toothed jaws. Its red eyes are faceted like gemstones and glow with a pale red light. Foulwings communicate with each other via harsh croakings that are only slightly more sophisticated than animal calls. These sounds can convey identities, basic emotions and urges, and also warnings.
