A vicious and unpredictable 2-headed giant with thick, gray hide
An Ettin is a vicious and unpredictable 2-headed giant. Ettin skin resembles the thick, gray hide of an elephant, though this is actually grime and filth encrusting its rarely-washed skin. Adult ettins tower at around 13 feet tall.
Ettins have no language of their own, but speaks a corrupted combination of Orc and Giant. This speech is debased enough that those who know these languages can understand only understand words here and there in an ettin's speech.
Although ettins are quite stupid, they can be quite cunning, often setting up ambushes rather than charging into a fair fight. An ettin typically wields a spear in each hand, adding +4 to damage rolls due to its great strength. Because each arm is controlled by a different head, the ettin may attack with both weapons, even against separate enemies.

Large, nocturnal two-headed creatures that live below ground
Ettins are large, nocturnal creatures that live below ground. They have two heads, each of which controls one arm. The right side is slightly dominant, and can cause 3d6 damage whereas the left can inflict 2d8. Ettins are seldom surprised because one head or the other is usually keeping watch.
Description: Ettins are dirty creatures that wear tattered skins and often use wicked weapons, such as barbed clubs. They share some affinity to orcs, witnessed in their pig-like faces.
