Dread Maw
Dread Maws are huge serpents or worms with vast circular mouths filled with hooked, crescent-shaped, inward-curling teeth. [1a]
Belegol Ironskin, a famed Slayer claims that the best way to kill a Maw is to let it swallow you, then cut your way out from the inside. [1a]
Appearance
They have scaly grey and green bodies coated with a rank slime that not only aids in passing through the earth at great speed, as well as befouling the weapons of those seeking to end them. Creatues of Chaos, many bear open, suppurating wounds and strange mutations. Rarely they may grow to titanic size, becoming capable of swallowing whole armoured wagons in a single gulp! [1a]
Habitat
Some legends claim that they were orginalyl fond in the Hinterlands of Kuresh, perhaps created by the fabled Blood Naga Queens. [1a]
Weapons and Equipment
Some spit the same foul and corrosive substance that coats their skin at enemies whilst others have acidic blood that can melt flesh. [1a]
