    Humbaba guards the cedar forest by divine appointment. His roar is floodwater, his breath is death and the forest itself carries warnings long before strangers reach the first sacred tree.

    Special Attack

    Flood-Roar: creatures in a 60 ft cone make a Tough save; a failed save deals 4d8 thunder damage, pushes the creature 30 ft and makes it deafened for 1d4 rounds. Cedar Axe: slashing, melee 15 ft, +6 to hit, 4d10+6.

    Special Defense

    Seven Radiances: Humbaba begins with seven radiant veils, each reducing one instance of damage to 0. A veil falls voluntarily when intruders withdraw, extinguish a fire, replant a felled cedar, release a captured forest creature or speak an honest reason for entering. The forest opens a safe path once three such acts are completed.
