The chuul is an 8 ft tall, unnatural merging of arthropods spawned from another planet or dimension. They appear as crab like humanoids with tentacles where their mouths should be. Their carapace is incredibly tough, making chuuls immune to critical hits. The slime from a chuul's tentacle infects the target with a minor madness (a Luck (Will) save resists).
