This is probably the best way to generally handle this, but the OP is certainly the funnier option!
I also like to describe random monsters’ movement as “shambling” on occasion just to watch them hurl turn undead and other holy attacks at, like, an orc with a limp.
This reminds me of a dnd game I stumbled upon a few weeks ago where it was a sort of AI roulette. The DM described the monster(s) and a designated player would input their description into their choice of art AI. They fight whatever it spits out, with the DM’s stat block adjusted to match. That burning gaze you described? Surprise, it came from a fire elemental!
