Its slimy skin is broken by rows of sharp barbs. Above its trio of alien eyes sits a set of bull-like horns. \n'b' Behemoth aboleth are the result of a thousand years of experimentation, mutation, and hatred. Bred to devastate their masters\xe2\x80\x99 enemies above and below the waves, behemoth aboleth are terrifying to behold and often drive lesser opponents away before a battle begins. \n'b' Originally created to battle krakens, aboleths now also use them as siege engines against the walled cities of the air-breathing races. The behemoth aboleth themselves are instilled with a deep hatred of kraken, and attack them in preference to all other targets. \n'b' Behemoth aboleth try to set up a battlefield in their favor, using their spell-like abilities to confuse and scatter their foes. When there are no foes to battle, behemoth aboleth become massive beasts of burden, hauling great loads for their more intelligent kin. \n'b' The great creatures grow increasingly restless under these conditions, and may lash out in rage if they persist for too long. To prevent this, aboleth communities generally send behemoth aboleths on \xe2\x80\x9cpatrol\xe2\x80\x9d at least monthly, allowing them to vent their rage on any passing ships or large sea creatures.'
