The woolly mammoth, q, is a monster that appears in EvilHack. It is the strongest member of the quadruped monster class in this variant, with a crushing trunk attack and two powerful tusk attacks that can send a foe flying. The woolly mammoth is also the only eligible steed for a player giant.

Generation

Woolly mammoths are only randomly generated in the Ice Queen's Realm.

Strategy

A somewhat common strategy for the Astral Plane known as "woolly rain" involves using a cursed scroll of genocide to generate woolly mammoths, then using them to clear out various monsters, similar to the "purple rain" strategy involving purple worms.
