A Large and Terrible Frog

There is a general consensus in my house that A Year With Frog and Toad is one of the best children's plays ever, mostly because of the "Shivers" song, which goes something like this...

There is a frog

A large and terrible frog

He is terribly large and largely terrible

Terrible!

Terrible!

Terrible!

Large and terrible frog!

He’s mean! And awful!

And he’s awful mean!

And his wrinkly skin is pasty green!

He eats little bunnies dipped in dirt,

And he likes frog children for dessert!

He is a frog

A large and terrible frog!

He is terribly large

And largely terrible!

Terrible!

Terrible!

Terrible!

TERRIBLE!

Large and terrible frog!

So, in honor of this thing which gets sung in my house ridiculously often, here are Pathfinder stats for a very large and very terrible frog-like beast.

SPECIAL ABILITIES

Massive (Ex)

Because giganteans are so massive, uneven ground and other terrain features that form difficult terrain generally pose no significant hindrance to a gigantean's movement, though areas of forest or settlements are considered difficult terrain to a gigantean. A Huge or smaller creature can move through any square occupied by a gigantean, or vice-versa. A gigantean can make attacks of opportunity only against foes that are Huge or larger, and can be flanked only by Huge or larger foes. A gigantean gains a bonus for being on higher ground only if its entire space is on higher ground than that of its target. It's possible for a Huge or smaller creature to climb a gigantean—this generally requires a successful DC 30 check, and unlike the normal rules about gigantean and attacks of opportunity, a Small or larger creature that climbs on a gigantean's body provokes an attack of opportunity from the monster.

Frightful Presence (Ex)

When a Large and Terrible Frog roars all creatures within 30 feet that hear it and those with fewer HD than the frog must succeed on a Will save (DC 21) or become shaken for 5d6 rounds.

Leaping (Ex)

The Large and Terrible Frog always counts as having a running start when jumping.

Poison (Ex)

Injury; save Fort DC 27; frequency 1/round for 6 rounds; effect 1d8 Con damage; cure 1 save

Rage (Ex)

In the presence of bright light (a daylight spell, continual flame, but not actual sunlight), the Large and Terrible Frog flies into a berserk rage, attacking until either it or its opponent is dead. It gains +4 Strength and –4 AC while enraged. It cannot end its rage voluntarily. If the source of light is removed, the creature’s rage ends 1d4 rounds later. The beast is fatigued (–2 to Strength and Dexterity) for the remainder of the encounter.
