Tsamtas

A tsamtás (plural tsamtáx) is a bizarre, vaguely serpentine
creature that lives suspended in the upper reaches of the air as the
endless blistering it radiates scorches the land below into a sere
wasteland. Each end of its serpentine body ends in a huge set of
jaws, while the heaving belly in the center of its body bears a third
massive gaping orifice. The tsamtás stretches nearly 40 feet long
and weighs several tons, though gas bladders within it bear it aloft.

Sky Hunter. The tsamtás seeks to devour all avian creatures,
but its favorite prey are the thunderbirds that soar across the
highland plateaus. It is not known whether this is due to the save
of the thunderbirds’ flesh or if it is a deeper enmity rooted in their
feathered rivals’ control of the weather. After all, how can the
tsamtás bring ruin and waste to the lands below and the skies
above if the thunderbird is allowed to bring rain to the land?

Father Devourer. While the ordinary tsamtás are a terrible
menace, the elder abominations that spawned them are even
worse. Larger and far deadlier than their common kin, the
tosetáx can bring ruin to entire nations if its foul influence is left
unchecked. Aside from its greater size, the tosetáx bears the same
red and green scales and ivory underbelly of the tsamtás, though
its hateful eyes glow a lambent green.

Rise of the Jungle. So long as the tunche is in a forest or

within 100 feet with its vines attacks regardless of
whether or not they would normally reach the creature.

Actions

Absorb Jungle Denizen. The tunche can try to absorb an
adjacent beast or plant creature into its form, requiring
the creature to make a DC 20 Dexterity saving throw or
be swallowed by the tunche’s mass and killed instantly. The
tunche gains a number of hit points equal to the creature’s
Hit Dice.

Composite Creature. The tunche is an amalgam of jungle
plants and animals, and it can separate into two individual
creatures as an action. The tunches have the same statistics
but half the original tunche’s current hit points. As an
action, if they are adjacent, the individual tunches can
recombine, combining the two tunche’s current hit points.

Xipe Totec

This exceptionally tall golden-skinned man wears another
humanoid’s skin as a suit; the flayed creature’s hands dangle
from the man’s wrists. He wields a blood-dipped dagger in his left
hand and a staff topped with a rattling arrow in his right hand.
He exudes an unmistakeable aura of divinity. Xipe Totec is either
a former deity whose followers have dwindled in number due to
conquests by external forces, and he seeks to regrow or retain his
following, or he is on the cusp of transcendence after amassing
several fervently warlike cults. His abilities to transfer his power
and energize his worshippers point to a divine capability. Xipe
Totec stands 9 feet tall and weighs a massive 2 tons.

The Culling. Xipe Totec believes that much as the soil must
be turned to produce better crops, so too must people be weeded
out through warfare to produce a better civilization. As his power
grows, his cults become more prominent and sweep through ever-
widening regions to achieve greater conquests.
Xipe Totec also promotes the agricultural growth through
sacrifice. As maize sheds its skin to reveal its treasure, a sacrifice
must be made in similar fashion to promote that growth. He
prefers noble warriors for sacrifice, since their prowess in battle
and purity encourages the best growth. Additionally, as he, or
one of his most powerful followers, dons the skin of a mighty
warrior, the power granted by that skin increases drastically over
an ordinary sacrifice. If Xipe Totec is engaged in
battle himself, he ensures the preservation of a
notable combatant for a symbolic battle ending in
an honorable death.

While Xipe Totec detects as an evil being, he
does not view his actions as evil. He instead sees
his teachings and the sacrifices he demands as
necessary for the benefit of all civilization. After
all, no one would want weak and unsustaining
yields from their crops, so he reasons that no
civilization can survive with people who cannot
provide fully to its greater good.

Sole Survivor. Xipe Totec is a unique creature,
but he refers to three lost brothers who have fallen
to internecine fighting or the conquests that have
diminished his power. He does not recall them with any
sort of fondness and is quite satisfied with the idea that
he is the only survivor.

Master of Metals. In addition to promoting warfare
and agriculture, Xipe Totec is a gifted blacksmith, primarily
working in silver and gold. He crafted the dagger he always
uses in combat and bolstered it to allow it to maintain its
edge during the rigors of battle. When he is not leading
troops or overseeing sacrifices, he acts as a mentor to other
silver- and goldsmiths and blesses exemplary weapons and
armor they produce.

incapacitated and ignores the call of other zuvembies.

than the zuvembie, a target can repeat the saving throw.
A creature can also repeat the saving throw at the end of

Lord, living fey like the  curupira  and  encantado  alongside deathless terrors like
the llorona and tzitzimitl, living engines of destruction like the lusca and chupacabra and
unliving constructs like the  cuauhxicalli  and  xolo guardian. Guardians of the wild like

the anaconda, giant iguana, black caiman, jaguar, and giant mantis shrimp! 
Wherever your campaign takes you, you’ll find an incredible collection of marvelous monsters
to challenge the mightiest heroes. They are perfect for running a campaign directly inspired
by the Americas, of course, but are equally awesome whenever you just need exciting new
creatures your players may have never seen before! This incredible  5E  monster book  has

of Mexico, Brazil, Chile, Argentina, Paraguay, Colombia, Venezuela, Peru, Haiti, Puerto Rico,
