During Combat In combat, Octogorgon’s sheer size is sufficient to destroy cities, but it supplements this physical power with an acidic, petrifying spray of ink and a barrage of deadly rays fired from each of its tentacles. Which targets are afflicted by which rays are determined mostly by whimsy rather than tactical considerations. Octogorgon’s wake is typically populated by a few mad, cursed or polymorphed survivors to testify to its might.

Protection Field (Su) Octogorgon gains a deflection bonus to its AC equal to its Charisma bonus.
This impossibly immense creature resembles an octopus with a huge, gnashing beak. Its eight tentacles each end in a puckered orifice.
Octogorgon is one of the most intelligent of the kaiju, but this intelligence gives it an unfortunately cruel and peevish temperament. It spends centuries at a time sleeping in its lair, which is fortunate, because in its waking hours it makes a beeline straight for large populated areas to delight in destroying. Octogorgon takes trophies from its rampages, and the relics of a dozen dead civilizations decorate the winding passages of the undersea caverns it calls home.
Octogorgon, unlike most kaiju, is capable of speech. It rarely speaks to individual creatures, preferring to make doom-laden pronouncements to terrify all in ear-shot when it moves to destroy a city. It occasionally makes references to the Great Old Ones in these speeches, leading some scholars to hypothesize that Octogorgon is one of their creations, or even of their number. It cannot grant spells and sees worshipers as deluded fools.
