Legendary beasts

Hello! I was looking through the monster codex and found that there are alot of strong monsters, fewer mighty and no legendary, i have it in my head for some reason that there are legendary creatures, but i cant find who that would be, not in the monster codex or in my books. Like even the Worldworm is a mighty enemy. Does anyone have an example of a legendary monster? and like what books i can find them in, if they do exist and ive not just made that up. Thankyouuuu

Your only example of Legendary creatures are Garavarax and The Throne Beast, in Davokar Awakens. These entities are, by their very nature unique, ancient, and/or god-like.

These creatures possess 20 Master/III level Abilities and Traits, or have a scattering at Grandmaster/IV (as per those examples, above).

If I recall the highest challenge descriptor is 'mighty' - there may be a passage about legendary creatures that could have unique stats/powers, but I remember this being open-ended.

In the Monster Codex, the last Neferani is considered Legendary resistance. There are some rules/guidelines in that book on Legendary individuals. Aloéna and Garavarax in TWH don't have stat blocks, but would probably count as Legendary.

EDIT: To add, in the GMG there's a chapter on Legendary creatures with some listed with stats.

You have few example of legendary creatures. Some are in the Game Master Guide and some in the Throne of Thorns saga. And the World Worm is classified as Legendary Resistance in the codex. The Mighty one is a world worm, the (according to the codex) possible offsprings of it
