Gloomspite Gitz – Rockgut Troggoths

At first glance, Rockgut Troggoths look more like crude and ugly statues come to life than living beings. They emerge from the deep chasms – and prefer to remain there where possible, subsisting on a diet of rock until they have carved out entire cave networks because of their appetites. Like all troggoths, these behemoths can live for hundreds of years thanks to their natural ability to regenerate, and the strongest and eldest of their kind will boast the most sprawling cave systems within their territory. The Rockgut Troggoths’ fixation on eating stone, coupled with the adaptability of their race, has granted them two remarkable abilities. The first is a craggy exterior that is almost impervious to magical and mundane assault. Sleeping Rockguts have been mistaken for part of the landscape, until they wake up and start swinging their clubs. The second ability is a proficiency in manipulating rock that is nothing short of astounding, for in their lumpen hands the substance flows like water. There is no limit to the wonders of craft more enlightened races could achieve with this power. The Rockguts employ it for more direct purposes: scooping up chunks of earth to form massive boulders and hurling them at anything they take a disliking to.
