So how many of you have any custom created monsters that were made by some insane Wizard or maybe even a nutty follower of Gond?
I like drippiness.
EDIT: Awww, why was my title edited? I thought it was cool.

I can sweep evil from this land. Destroy the ogre races. Bring the wayward humans into line!

| Perhaps you should have started a poll. I have not had any any Wizards or Grod followers create new monsters or races, however know a few that have. |

Yes, but it didn't exactly inspire people to come and take a look unless they were looking for humor (it looked like a title of a joke).
You can always add it to the body of the message. |

It was meant as an attention grabber. Oh well. I will post a monster tomorrow. |

Trust me on this. When people are browsing through and not clicking on every post, they normally don't recall which topic is which unless the title describes it properly. Alaundo must not have felt that the topic really said what you wanted it to say (namely, read this if you want custom monsters). It wasn't done as a slap in the face or anything -- I've had topic titles edited by Alaundo as well. He does it because sometimes he'd prefer a particular topic not to be ignored by people who don't know just what it is. |

Well met
Thank ye Bookwyrm  Indeed, Gellion. In a library with numerous scrolls and tomes, it is helpful to be as specific as possible as to the title. Remember, some scribes use the scrying room to search for particular words in the title also. As it stood, thy scroll could have been easily overlooked, which i'm sure ye wouldn't want  Certainly, no offence was meant.
Now, back to the topic. I'm quite looking forward to reading some of the creations herein

once when we were in elementary school we had a demigod;
and it was called "the soul-stealer"(don't blame me as 12-13 year olds the mightiest name we found was THIS)
and he was a nice guy, when he killed an enemy he would drain his/her hitpoints and add them up to his
unbeatable heh! |

I think there was a scroll similar to this one about a year ago... If I remember correctly we had thought up of:
1) the Toe Jabber - lurking around the households
2) Demonic "pet" Bunny - always nice to play with
*searching memory banks... no other found* Sorry that was all I could remember.  |

In Sage's Magic Shop? It'd be pretty hard to run a store with monsters running around. (That's just only the customers)  |
