Forgotten Beasts are underground Titans.

They are randomly generated creatures associated with some particular biome. They have an animal base, and live in shrines, which are flattened areas with tall pillars.

They may also be inorganic.

...What? I've never even seen one of those shrines.

Titans attack your fortress once you have enough wealth and population. I got attacked by a humanoid porcupine once. He killed EVERYONE.

Think of it like Sim City, except with rival mayors that seek to destroy your citizens by arming legions of homeless people and sending them to attack you.

I've been to one as an adventurer. Some jackass human lord told me to go kill a marsh titan (turtle with mandibles and fire) halfway across the continent.

Shrines are kind of like the previous version's temples.  Bronze Colossi hang out in them as well.

Are titans normally stronger then forgotten beasts? I have encountered a few FBs and had limited issues with them (and most problems were related to their poison), where as every titan I have come across has.. Well.. Done horrific things to me.. Could be luck of the draw.

Yea, just the luck of the draw. Sometimes a baby can destroy a titan in a single punch. Sometimes your freaking doomed.

I think my favourite titan I ever found was an approximately 30000Γ buffalo made of phyllite and had a stinger on its tail.

I kind of imagined the second colossus in Shadow of the Colossus, but way deadlier (and cooler).
