Summoned Creature: Giant CrabThis lumbering hard-shelled crab stands as tall as a dwarf, its massive pincers waving menacingly.

As a summoned, template, creature, this creature has several changes. Anything noted with [] is what it gains from the template associated with the summoners’ alignment. Divine is always listed first, and Unholy afterwards.
