|summary=The tarrasque is an unbelievably huge, spiny, dinosaur-like creature.

|trait1=Legendary Resistance
|tlimit1=6{{5e24|Per Day|/Day}}
|tdesc1=If the tarrasque fails a {{5e24lc|Saving Throw}}, it can choose to succeed instead.

|trait2=Magic Resistance
|tlimit2=
|tdesc2=The tarrasque has {{5e24|Advantage}} on saving throws against {{5e24lc|Spell}}s and other {{5e24lc|Magical Effect}}s.

|trait3=Reflective Carapace
|tlimit3=
|tdesc3=If the tarrasque is targeted by a {{5e24spell|Magic Missile}} spell or a spell that requires a {{5e24lc|Ranged}} {{5e24lc|Attack Roll}}, roll 1d6. On a 1–5, the tarrasque is unaffected. On a 6, the tarrasque is unaffected and reflects the spell, turning the caster into the {{5e24lc|Target}}.

|trait4=Siege Monster
|tlimit4=
|tdesc4=The tarrasque deals double damage to {{5e24lc|Object}}s and {{5e24lc|Structure}}s.

|action1=Multiattack
|alimit1=
|adesc1=The tarrasque makes one {{iplink|Bite}} attack and three other attacks, using {{5e24|Claw}} or {{5e24|Tail}} in any combination.

|action2=Bite
|alimit2=
|adesc2=''{{5e24|Melee}} {{5e24|Attack Roll}}:'' +19, {{5e24lc|Reach}} 15 ft. '''Hit:''' 36 (4d12+10) {{5e24|Piercing}} {{5e24lc|Damage}}, and the {{5e24lc|Target}} has the {{5e24|Grappled}} condition (escape {{5e24|DC}} 20). Until the grapple ends, the target has the {{5e24|Restrained}} condition and can’t {{5e24lc|Teleport}}.

|action3=Claw
|alimit3=
|adesc3=''Melee Attack Roll:'' +19, reach 15 ft. ''Hit:'' 28 (4d8+10) {{5e24|Slashing}} damage.

|action4=Tail
|alimit4=
|adesc4=''Melee Attack Roll:'' +19, reach 30 ft. ''Hit:'' 23 (3d8+10) {{5e24|Bludgeoning}} damage. If the target is a {{5e24|Huge}} or smaller {{5e24lc|Creature}}, it has the {{5e24|Prone}} condition.

|action5=Thunderous Bellow
|alimit5={{5e24|Recharge}} 5-6
|adesc5=''{{5e24|Constitution}} {{5e24|Saving Throw}}:'' DC 27, each creature and each {{5e24lc|Object}} that isn’t being worn or carried in a 150-foot {{5e24|Cone}}. ''Failure:'' 78 (12d12) {{5e24|Thunder}} damage, and the target has the {{5e24|Deafened}} and {{5e24|Frightened}} conditions until the end of its next {{5e24lc|Turn}}. ''Success:'' {{5e24|Half}} damage only.

|baction1=Swallow
|blimit1=
|bdesc1=''{{5e24|Strength}} Saving Throw:'' DC 27, one {{5e24|Large}} or smaller creature Grappled by the tarrasque (it can have up to six creatures swallowed at a time). ''Failure:'' The target is swallowed, and the Grappled condition ends. A swallowed creature has the {{5e24|Blinded}} and Restrained conditions and can’t teleport, it has {{5e24|Total Cover}} against attacks and other effects outside the tarrasque, and it takes 56 (16d6) {{5e24|Acid}} damage at the start of each of the tarrasque’s turns.

If the tarrasque takes 60 damage or more on a single turn from a creature inside it, the tarrasque must succeed on a DC 20 Constitution saving throw at the end of that turn or regurgitate all swallowed creatures, each of which falls in a space within 10 feet of the tarrasque and has the Prone condition. If the tarrasque dies, any swallowed creature no longer has the Restrained condition and can escape from the corpse using 20 feet of movement, exiting Prone.

|legendaryalttext=Legendary Action Uses: 3. Immediately after another creature’s turn, the tarrasque can expend a use to take one of the following actions. The tarrasque regains all expended uses at the start of each of its turns.

|legend1=Onsaught
|lgdlimit1=
|lgddesc1=The tarrasque moves up to half its {{5e24|Speed}}, and it makes one {{iplink|Claw}} or {{iplink|Tail}} attack.

|legend2=World-Shaking Movement
|lgdlimit2=
|lgddesc2=The tarrasque moves up to its Speed. At the end of this movement, the tarrasque creates an instantaneous shock wave in a 60-foot {{5e24|Emanation}} originating from itself. Creatures in that area lose {{5e24|Concentration}} and, if {{5e24|Medium}} or smaller, have the Prone condition. The tarrasque can’t take this action again until the start of its next turn.
