Harvesting & Loot

Remorhaz

A monstrous beast resembling a cross between a worm and a centipede. It has tough, leathery wings fanning off the side of its body, an insect-like head with razor sharp teeth, and a 40-foot long scaly body with dozens of legs. It is ice-blue in color, but its back glows red with an inner fire that radiates extreme heat. Sharp horns run along its back, glowing red hot.

Meat

The meat of many monsters is considered vile and distasteful. Monstrosities and aberrations, in particular, may have tainted blood or rancid tasting meat. Dungeon Master's discretion.

This creature produces 40 pieces of meat, weighing a total of 160 lbs.

Random Roll: 8d12 = 40

Huge creatures produce 8d12 worth of meat.

ROLL AGAIN

The table below shows how much meat an inexperienced butcher may be able to harvest from a creature, especially after a battle may have ruined some of the meat (i.e. burned, frozen, poisoned, etc.). If a whole creature's carcass is brought to a butcher, the butcher may pay 4x the value rolled in the chart below for the carcass (if the butcher even WANTS this kind of creature - DM discretion). Of course, carrying a heavy carcass can be difficult, and the creature's bacteria that kept it alive will begin to ruin the meat, spoiling it within a day.

† The weight of a raw piece of meat is 4 pounds. And one slab of meat (4 lbs.), can be used to make 1 dried ration (2 lbs.).
‡ Raw meat has a very short shelf-life, and will go bad within a day if it is not refridgerated or cured.
⋆ The table above uses a standard price of 5cp per pound for regular a piece of animal meat (such as cattle or deer). The value of meat can vary drastically, depending on the quality, rarity and the creature it is sourced from. For example, dragon meat could cost 10x more than standard livestock meat, while insect meat could cost only a copper or two per pound. A DM can decide if that is adequate, and if certain meat is worth more or less.
