Hit points gained become permanent addition (limited to their monstrous nature, 6d10+18), and are regained upon resting.

Thraaak the Mad

Usual Tactics

Tactics. You will notice the spells that Thraaak has left are all defensive in nature, this is intentional, as is the low armor class and high hit points to have this be a fun and challenging fight that is ultimately winnable by low level PCs. Thraaak knows where Tizun Thane’s treasure is and will fight to the death to protect it.

The gu'en deeko Is believed—falsely—by the northern tribes to be a human who has been cursed by the gods, horribly twisted into a giant ape-like creatures for partaking in cannibalism. Similar in appearance to a yeti, it is a light grey in color. It attacks with two powerful claws. Though it eats most mammals, its preference is for humanoid flesh, particularly, the brain, from which the gu'en deeko gains the momories and abilities of the victim.
