The legendary tarrasque, for there is fortunately only one known to exist, is the most dreaded monster native to the Prime Material plane. The creature is a scaly biped with two horns on its head, a lashing tail, and a reflective carapace.

Combat: The tarrasque is a killing machine and when active (see below) eats everything for miles around, including all animals and vegetation. Normal attacks are with its two forelimb claws (1d12 points of damage each), a sweeping tail lash (2d12 points of damage), a savage bite (5d10 points of damage plus acts as a sword of sharpness, severing a limb on a natural attack roll of 18 or better), and two thrusting horn attacks (1d10 points of damage each).
Once every turn, the normally slow-moving tarrasque can rush forward at a movement rate of 15, making all horn attacks cause double damage and trampling anything underfoot for 4d10 points of crushing damage.
The mere sight of the tarrasque causes creatures with less than 3 levels or Hit Dice to be paralyzed with fright (no saving throw) until it is out of their vision. Creatures of 3 or more levels or Hit Dice flee in panic, although those of 7 or more levels or Hit Dice that manage to succeed with a saving throw vs. paralyzation are not affected (though they often still decide to run away).
The tarrasque's carapace is exceptionally tough and highly reflective. Bolts and rays such as lightning bolts, cones of cold, and even magic missiles are useless against it. The reflection is such that 1 in 6 of these attacks actually bounces directly back at the caster (affecting him normally), while the rest bounce off harmlessly to the sides and into the air.
The tarrasque is also immune to all heat and fire, and it regenerates lost hit points at a rate of 1 hit point per round. Only enchanted weapons (+1 or better) have any hope of harming the tarrasque. The Tarrasque is totally immune to all psionics.

Habitat/Society: It is fortunate that the tarrasque is active only for short periods of time. Typically, the monster comes forth to forage for a week or two, ravaging the countryside for miles around. The tarrasque then seeks a hidden lair underground and lies dormant, sleeping for 5d4 months before coming forth again. Once every decade or so, the monster is particularly active, staying awake for several months. Thereafter its period of dormancy is 4d4 years unless disturbed. The ratio of active to dormant states seems to be about 1:30.

Ecology: Slaying of the tarrasque is said to be possible only if the monster is reduced to -30 or fewer hit points and a wish is then used. Otherwise, even the slightest piece of the tarrasque can regenerate and restore the monster completely. Legend says that a great treasure can be extracted from the tarrasque's carapace. The upper portion, treated with acid and then heated in a furnace, is thought to yield gems (10d10 diamonds of 1,000 gp base value each). The underbelly material, mixed with the creature's blood and adamantite, is said to produce a metal that can be forged by master dwarven blacksmiths into 1d4 shields of +5 enchantment. It takes two years to manufacture each shield, and the dwarves aren't likely to do it for free.
It is hoped that the tarrasque is a solitary creation, some hideous abomination unleashed by the dark arts or by elder, forgotten gods to punish all of nature. The elemental nature of the tarrasque leads the few living tarrasque experts to speculate that the elemental princes of evil have something to do with its existence. In any case, the location of the tarrasque remains a mystery, as it rarely leaves witnesses in its wake, and nature quickly grows over all remnants of its presence. It is rumored that the tarrasque is responsible for the extinction of one ancient civilization, for the records of their last days spoke of a ``great reptilian punisher sent by the gods to end the world.''
Note: Creatures with a minus THAC0 can only be hit on a 1.

This above is from the second edition i have a copy on the computer and also an copy of third edition to. one thing is the third edition most of the enteries are fairly same but changing stuff around to fit the rule of 3rd ed plus it also removed the last part about you geting stuff from its armor cause its the only moster around so how would you know ?

Sages speak of Mordukhavar in whispers. Reputed to be the offspring of Tiamat and one of the Dark Eight, the two-headed Mordukhavar is one of the most powerful abominations ever to climb from the pits of Baator. The creature's wings are powerful, batlike appendages with wicked claws, and its thick tail ends in a cruel barb.

Combat: Mordukhavar prefers close combat, as it enjoys rending flesh and shattering bone. Like its pit fiend cousins, Mordukhavar can attack six times per round, dividing its attacks between six different opponents. Mordukhavar attacks with its scaly wings (1-6 points of damage), its razor-sharp claws (2-16 points of damage), its terrible bite (3-36 points of damage), and its wyvernlike tail (1-10 points of damage). Those truck by its physical attacks must make a successful saving throw vs. poison or fall into a coma in 1d4 rounds. (Slow poison retards the onset of the coma by another 2d6 rounds, and neutralize poison nullifies the effect entirely.)

Mordukhavar has two powerful breath weapons, each from one of its heads. The first, from the right head, is a devastating gout of hellfire 5 feet wide and 55 feet long, and it causes 22d10 points of damage to creatures caught within the area of effect. The second, from the left head, is a spray of corrosive acid 5 feet wide at its point of origin, 45 feet long, and 15 feet wide at its base; it causes 20d8 points of damage and forces all items to make appropriate saving throws. Victims of either breath weapon can make a successful saving throw vs. breath weapon to reduce damage by half. Failure against the corrosive spray indicates that the acid completely destroys the items in question. Damage inflicted to either head counts only against Mordukhavar's total hit points, but neutralizing one or both heads by magic or other means reduces the number of breath weapon attacks or eliminates the dragon's breath weapons entirely.

Mordukhavar can also employ the following spell-like abilities, once per round at will: advanced illusion, animate dead, charm person, detect invisibility, detect magic, fireball, hold person, improved invisibility, infravision, know alignment, polymorph self, produce flame, pyrotechnics, suggestion, symbol (pain), teleport without error, and wall of fire. It can also wield Wizard and Priest spells at the 14th level of ability. Once per day, the creature can polymorph itself into the form of a 30'-tall pit fiend.

Mordukhavar is immune to poison, acid, and fire (both magical and nonmagical), and it suffers half damage from cold-based and gaseous attacks. Only weapons of +3 or greater enchantment can damage this creature, and it regenerates 3 hit points per round. Finally, Mordukhavar can gate in six lesser baatezu or three greater baatezu. As a last resort, it has a 65% chance to summon an avatar of Tiamat to aid it in battle.

Habitat/Society: Seemingly ignored by the Lords of the Nine and distrusted by almost all of the Dark Eight, Mordukhavar moves between the Nine Layers of Baator, gathering information and making deals on behalf of Tiamat. Recently, Mordukhavar received command of a large detachment of baatezu with orders to fight in the Blood War. If this is true, then Tiamat has certainly entered the conflict between Law and Chaos - but for what purpose?

Mordukhavar's recent commission is sure to unsettle members of the Dark Eight. A few successes on the battlefield, and it could find itself the newest member of the ruling Pit Fiends of Baator - an incident sure to raise Tiamat's influence in Hell.

Ecology: Mordukhavar clearly holds some close connection with Tiamat. If the creature is really the offspring of the Chromatic Dragon and one of the Eight, then the baatezu now possess one of the most powerful weapons in the Blood War.

Occasionally, Mordukhavar answers the summons of an evil Wyrm or Great Wyrm as a representative of Tiamat. Such visitations to the Prime Material Plane are rare, but they usually involve the long-term plans of the Chromatic Dragon.

One of the most powerful demon rulers in the Abyss is Lord Graz’zt, dedicated foe of both Demogorgon (q.v.) and Orcus (q.v.). The never-ending war between Graz’zt and the other demon lords rages across the Abyss showing no mercy to those that get in its way. (This war ended with Orcus's death at the hands of the drow goddess Kiaransalee.)

Graz’zt is one of the handsomest of the demon lords, at least by human standards. He appears as a large, 9-foot tall humanoid with black skin and green glowing eyes. His slanted eyes and pointed ears are merely indicative of his demonic nature. Graz’zt has six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot.

Graz'zt has achieved a certain level of notoriety in the Forgotten Realms world for his audacity in kidnapping the avatar of Waukeen, the Goddess of Trade of that world.
