Description
Made of white painted wood, a gazebo is a small structure with open sides and several small benches inside. Generally it can be found with a domed roof supported by several pillars.
Combat
A gazebo will never attack first, always allowing its attacker several attempts to attack it. After 5 rounds or until the player character (and/or dungeon master) becomes really frustrated, it will leap upon the attacking character and devour him/her/it completely, no saving throw. The gazebo always hits and always kills, swallowing the attacker.
Habitat
The Gazebo is a solitary creature, often found on small hillocks or in the middle of gardens. Often it will be accompanied by trees, bushs, plants, and the occassional bat and/or pigeon, who, although annoying to it, will not be attacked unless a very large dropping is made.
