Mammoths are huge, shaggy prehistoric relatives of the elephant. Though found in a variety of climates, they are most common in colder territories.

Like elephants, mammoths have five distinct attack modes (two tusks, a trunk grab, and two tramples with the front feet), but a single individual can apply no more than two of these attacks to any single opponent of small or medium size; large opponents may be targeted by three of these attacks in a round. However, one can attack multiple opponents in its immediate area at the same time.

A light load for a mammoth is 8,500 pounds; a heavy load, up to 17,000 pounds.

A mammoth has no treasure as such, but its tusks are worth 2d6 x 100 gp.

Mammoths are thought to be the ancestors of the common elephant, the principal difference being their great woolly coats, which make them better suited to subarctic environments.

In general, elephants are relatively peaceful creatures, but when roused they can be devastating. The mammoth makes two attacks with their great tusks for 3d6 damage each. They may also attack creatures up to medium size with their trunks for 2d8 damage as well as attempt to crush their foes with their two forelegs, which can each inflict 2d8 damage. However, no single opponent may be subject to more than two attacks at one time, though elephants can simultaneously combat as many enemies as it has attacks.

Treasure: Ivory is worth 1d6×100 gp per tusk. An elephant tusk is hugely encumbering.
