description: 'The chernobue infects all creatures it encounters with itself, spreading
pain and calamity wherever it flops and writhes. It sheds ruin and sups on anguish,
but a chernobue can sometimes be persuaded to pause for a few moments of conversation
if its partner in discourse can keep its attention by providing enough atrocious
details. Resembling a tumor-like growth of oily blackness, this vile monstrosity
has numerous muscular tentacles, a single glaring baleful eye, and a drooling, toothy
maw in the middle of its body.
