Even more dangerous than a Bulette is running them as a surprise monster. The better build-up to a Bulette must be unearthed.
The Bulette is such a cool monster. A deadly tunneling, armored hunter, a leaping surprise attacker, a vicious apex predator. So then why does running one exactly as they allude to feel so lackluster? It turns out the answer may all be in the build-up.
We look to the original inspiration for this monster to build a more engaging lead-up to it's reveal in the Strategy Stateroom and use old approaches from our horror episodes to hype the Bulette for our players and whip them into a frenzy.
