Colossuses have 10 HP, are damaged only by Holy, Silver, or Magic damage, immune to yellow weapons, deals red damage, deals instant death of each damage causing hit.
Basics
The colossus is a towering figure, both terrifying and awe inspiring to those who glimpse it. Standing multiple stories high, the colossus is essentially a living, moving statue of enormous proportions. It is difficult to examine the legendary figure, but it is probably constructed of iron or bronze. It is believed there is only one colossus left in the world. It may be that the ability to create more lies hidden in a long forgotten arcane library. The colossus seems to wander the realm, its direction seemingly chosen at random.
Behaviour
The Colossus is aware of its surroundings, but often disregards the ‘lesser’ creatures such as humans or orcs. It does not frequently deviate from its path, and will crash through buildings without concern. The colossus ignores most attempts to interact with it, but will occasionally give attention to certain individuals. Its logic or reasoning is completely unknown. When presented by a credible threat, such as a powerful caster or large army, the colossus will defend itself.
Combat
Battling the colossus is generally considered a sign of madness. This is because it is impervious to almost all weapons. Only the most exceptional weapons, blessed by the gods or enchanted by magic, may damage the colossus. Its blows can crush any normal creature, even those in the finest armors. If one must battle the colossus, it is advised to bring the most powerful spellcasters available. In general, it is best to stay out of the colossus’ path.
