The Neo-otyugh is the larger and meaner version of another early Dungeons & Dragons monster, the Otyugh. As we would learn in an article by Ed Greenwood in Dragon #96, both of these creatures are Gulguthra or “Dung-Eaters.” These creatures survive as scavengers, eating anything that they can find, including a party of adventurers, if they are available. While no full illustration of either gulguthra appear in that article, it does have an illustration of one in hiding and waiting to ambush an unsuspecting victim with art by Roger Raupp.
