Variants
Carnivorous Ape
(sometimes found in company with hobgoblins)
Bigger, meaner, and spoiling for a fight, in contrast with its more peaceable cousin, this more intelligent variant lusts for human flesh to devour. Its keen senses render it unlikely to be surprised (1 on 1d6). Its mangling attack, initiated if both hands hit the same opponent in a round of combat, does 1d8 damage.
Carnivorous apes are sometimes found in company with hobgoblins.
