Does it say in the official material that there was a tarrasque on Athas but it is dead? I remember thinking that but i don't know if i read it somewhere or made it up.. maybe it was from a DS PC game...


Also, what is the Elemental Disturbance? is it an official type occurance. I hear things about it every now and then, and a few years ago when i played DS there was i time that our cleric spells would go haywire, but i stopped being friends with the DM and never found out what the deal was.

Thanks

Nothing official, but Nyt likes to say that the ancient weapon in the city in the deadlands is an undead Terrasque. Nyt's crazy, though, so we try to humor him.

And since it is "ancient" and is refered to as a "weapon" and not a"monster", I'd like to add it could be a Blue Age old Life-shaped altered by the Nature-Benders(evil ones) So it would look like a Tarrasque but with different abilities.( some supernatural--other then being undead now)

That might be from the following:
