A particular type of costumed NPC that requires more than one crew member to operate and may form the basis of a 'creature feature' within the game.

In some cases a mega-monster may be a single costumed NPC accompanied by a referee due to the costume's impact on their surroundings or obstructing the vision of the NPC.
