The Scavenging Maw

The Scavenging Maw is a large and powerful hunger that serves as the first boss of the Depths of Malatar. It is encountered in Fort Mistwatch's storeroom, feasting on the purified soldiers.

During combat, it can summon regular hungers called Maulers, or its own shade to strike targets. Periodically it will vanish, and a notice will appear on screen saying that is lurking and waiting to strike.
