阔嘴怪是一种冲突中旋动进袭的生物。阔嘴怪成为了与强大的法师交朋友的必要性的教材,因为后者无需突入刀剑的范围即可杀死这个生物。
The tall mouther is a one-creature whirling skirmish. It’s an object lesson in the value of being close friends with a powerful magician,someone who can kill the creature without having to charge into sword range.
六条瘦长、长着蓝毛的肢体支撑一颗仿佛长着獠牙的大猩猩与南瓜灯笼的杂交品的脑袋。牙齿和不怀好意的大眼睛占满了这个四英尺长的脑袋。阔嘴怪没有其余的身体部分。无论何时都会有两三条具有令人难以置信的柔韧度的腿站立在地面,为阔嘴怪的大脑袋提供稳定的支撑。阔嘴怪的脑袋很少抬到高于15尺的地方,除非是为了躲避武器的攻击;在自然的情况下阔嘴怪的脑袋会保持离地5-7尺左右。
Six gangly, blue-furred limbs support a head that looks like a cross between a tusked gorilla and a jack-o’-lantern. The 4-foot-long head is all teeth and big leering eyes. The tall mouther has no other body. At any given time, two or three of the improbably flexible 15-foot-long limbs will be on the ground to support the weight of the head and give the mouther stability. The mouther’s head rarely rises 15 feet high, unless it’s attempting to avoid the blow of a weapon; its natural motion keeps the head 5 to 7 feet off the ground.
阔嘴怪使用通用语和半身人语,无论在哪被发现都带着令人厌斥的口音。
Tall mouthers speak Common and broken Halfling, both in accents that can only be described as obscene.

战斗COMBAT
阔嘴怪会试图站在他们的猎物的近战触及范围之外猛击他们。如果猎物闯入阔嘴怪的威胁范围试图近战,并在威胁范围内移动超过五尺,阔嘴怪会获得一个借机攻击机会(如果多个对手进入威胁范围,则会得到借机攻击机会,多亏了它的战斗反射专长)。
Tall mouthers attempt to stand out of their prey’s melee range and slam them. If the prey rushes in to fight, and moves more than 5 feet into or through the mouther’s threatened area, the mouther gets an opportunity attack (or multiple opportunity attacks if rushed by multiple opponents, thanks to its Combat Reflexes feat).
躲避箭矢(特异能力Ex):阔嘴怪疯狂旋转的手臂和移位的脑袋让它难以被普通投射物诸如弓箭弩矢命中。这些投射物(但是不包括射线或特殊投射物)有百分之20的可能彻底偏离阔嘴怪。
Arrow Evasion (Ex):  A tall mouther’s crazy whirl of arms and its shifting central head make it hard to hit with normal missiles such as arrows and crossbow bolts. Such missiles (but not rays or extraordinary missiles) have a 20% chance of missing the mouther outright.
在国度里IN THE REALMS
阔嘴怪是半身人王国最靠近的自然敌人。谷地遥远南方,阔嘴怪危害着半身人王国鲁伦Luiren。阔嘴怪跟随着半身人的足迹向北扩散到整个费伦大陆。在半身人游侠和冒险者的俚语中,“他被阔嘴怪抓住了”是描述一个伙伴的终结的常见方法。
Tall mouthers are the closest things the halflings of the Realms have to a natural enemy. Far to the south of the Dales, tall mouthers plague the borders of the halfling land of Luiren. As the halflings have spread north across the lands of Faerûn, the tall mouthers have followed them. In the slang of halfling rangers and adventurers, “he got mouthed” is a fairly common way of describing a comrade’s end.
