[8] Can transform into a terrifying 4 HD Where The Wild Things Are style fluffy ogre monster if it gets really pissed off. It can't choose to enter this state, you have to antagonize the trickster, foil too many of their plans, or back them into a corner with no escape.

Why can't you just walk up and stab him? - Roll 1d8
[1] The minion of a much more powerful monster.
