The Lobstrosity was a cancelled creature planned for Restoration of Erathia. It resembles a mutated lobster. It received both concept art and a 3D model render, but no screenshots are known that depict it actually appearing in-game. Its model was rendered by Kenneth Thomson Jr., based on concept art by George Almond. According to Gregory Fulton, Almond's concept art that became the Lobstrosity was a first pass at designing the Behemoth; he rejected the design and requested a redesign similar to the Rancor from Star Wars: Return of the Jedi. Fulton also claimed that the Lobstrosity design was going to be used as a 'secret' troop but that he was not aware that it had ever been modeled.
Its name, a portmanteau of "lobster" and "monstrosity", is seemingly an homage to Stephen King's The Dark Tower series.
