Calydonian Boar [5E Monster]

Descended from a line of legendary boars that includes the first Calydonian Boar, the Crommyonian Sow, and the Erymanthian Boar slain by Herakles, these monsters are of massive proportion and strength and are often remembered for the destruction they bring to the lands they inhabit. Like the original beast sent by the goddess Artemis and slain, finally, by a band of the greatest heroes of the Olympian age, these boars are typically encountered in their capacity as agents of divine will. In the wild they are fiercely territorial and have a preternatural sense and hatred for beings that do not pay the appropriate respects to the gods.

Agent of the Gods: The Calydonian Boar has advantage on Wisdom (Insight) checks that are made to detect proper behavior toward the Olympian Gods.
