Evening gents.
I'm trying to remember a creature from D&D. I can't remember what edition it's from, but I remember the picture from the book. It's like this big, moon sized creature. with a huge maw of teeth.
Anyone know what I'm talking about?
Image is similar, but not related to D&D and not what I'm looking for.

Atropus?

Yes! Thank you!
The artist depiction I had seen had teeth, but it is the same thing!

Anon delivers.
Don't be fooled!
It could have been any of the other myriad moons-with-teeth-monsters that are out there.
Any of these look closer to what you wanted?
So were any of these what you were really looking for?

Why don't they just drop all pretenses and call them as they actually are?
Epic-level Mimics.
Nice, using a refluff to represent this in 4e now.
Thanks /tg/

What the fuck was up with 2nd ed?

They're all spelljammer. When you're in space, in a magic space ship, you can expect to fight a moon or two.
My favourite use of moon-sized monsters is Ghroth, one of Campbell's additions to the Cthulhu Mythos. A red moon with a giant eye that causes the sleeping great old ones to wake when it approaches a planet.
Always thought that was a more interesting threat than the generic "It's going to crash into us" plot that these things get billed with.
