Umber Hulk
Umber Hulks are an ancient breed of monster in the many worlds of Dungeons & Dragons. These iconic aberrations resemble a massive hybrid of gorilla and beetle, combining a generally ape-like hulking physique with prominent horizontal mandibles, a hide armored in chitinous plates, massive digging claws and four eyes. Whilst they are mostly deadly burrowing bruisers, they have a unique gaze attack that can cause confusion, something that makes them a much greater threat. They are often associated with another aberration species, the Neogi, who use them as their preferred slaves.
Umber Hulks are one of a handful of monsters in the 3E Monster Manual designated "Product Identity" and not included under the Open Gaming License. They are probably the least missed of any such monsters since they're a replaceable brute.
