Large, black, and built like an invertebrate tank, the giant slips through the undebrush. It would rather run than fight, and thus poses little threat to you or your comnpanions

Arthropleura is a huge 6-foot long millipede that slinks across the swamplands quickly and silently. It specializes in keeping itself from being noticed
