description: 'A gug''s most horrid feature is its barrel-shaped head, which splits
  vertically to reveal numerous rows of sharp, yellow teeth and an open throat. Its
  eyes on either side of its head-jaw are small but keen. Bony ridges protect its
  eyes from the frantic flailing of its prey, as it prefers meals of raw and writhing
  meat over fungi and molds. It grips said prey with powerful arms that split at the
  elbow into a pair of forearms, giving it four clawed paws. These monstrous brutes
  are covered with shaggy black fur, often crusted with blood and gore.




  Although gugs may seem bestial, they have keen and wicked intellects. Gugs lair
  far underground, but they sometimes come to the surface to hunt during dark nights,
  either alone or in small groups. As they possess voracious appetites, most gugs
  consume the creatures they catch, but some instead kidnap their victims and retreat
  below the surface, leaving only a lingering stench and odd, clawed paw-prints. Victims
  are taken to rancid lairs marked with strange runes and sacrificed to the gugs''
  wicked gods of blood, darkness, and nightmares. Dire rumors tell of lightless gug
  cities made of titanic blocks of stone far underground, where powerful gug leaders
  preach their vile doctrines to mobs of howling gugs.




  Gugs have a strange relationship with ghouls, which seems to date from their shared
  origin in a distant subterranean world. Gugs live in fear of ghouls, despite towering
  over them; however, this strange fear doesn''t apply to ghasts, whom gugs consume
  as voraciously as they do other creatures.




  Gugs stand 16 feet tall and weigh 2,000 pounds, although they have an eerie, graceful
  gait that belies their immense size. Their light step and ability to squeeze through
  very small crannies makes gugs common bogeymen in tales of strange disappearances
  or bloody massacres.




  Some particularly bloodthirsty gugs gain awful powers as gifts from their eldritch
  patrons. These monsters are known as savants, are never less than 12th level in
  power, and gain several occult innate spells. Though each savant''s precise mix
  of spells varies, normally, these spells grant invisibility, offer power to manipulate
  and change rock, or invoke awful and destructive energies upon living flesh.
