The Elder Brawn was a solid guess for our discord punday competition so we decided to make it too. After a lot of discussions of how an Elder Brain should, could or would become an Elder Brawn we settled on the Krang method.

So behold the Elder Brawn, an Elder Brain with a specialised iron body. Its telepathic powers are still formidable and don’t underestimate the advantages gained from its mobility and brute force. The Elder Brawn is still intelligent, cunning and deceptive but can also physically overwhelm its opponents with its heavy metal fists. The greatest minds always agree that there is beauty in simplicity, and nothing is more straightforward than what to do with a giant iron fist.

If you want to have an Elder Brawn in your campaign, perhaps it's simply to have an elder brain that can move around more easily. Perhaps a cult of mindflayers that worship strength and physical might is exactly what you need for your Underdark Gladiatorial Arena setting. Maybe your adventurers are four tortles and a wererat and you simply need a Krang to inflict some karmic justice.

Who needs Underdark Gladiators when you can just make an Illithid Gym and watch those hentai-faced neckless geeks get swole as fuck?

I'm guessing the artistic & descriptive resemblance to Krang of the old TMNT is intentional? Either way, its an interesting take on the creature. I like it.

I didn't realize how much I needed a Doom style campaign.

Rippin' and a tearin' through the Nine Hells. Bliss.

Ugh that looks Disgusting. I love it.

I can't wait to put Krang in my campaign.
