Monster Trove for Seasoned Adventurers
Vault Maw
Huge
About
A treasure-vault door that unfolded into a metal-jawed beast after centuries of swallowing the thieves who picked it. It guards its hoard with patient, grinding hunger, letting greed walk right up to its teeth. It bites in a clash of iron and belches a blinding storm of spinning coins - though throw it enough treasure and it pauses, distracted, just long enough to matter.
