Democratic Monster Creation or something

I say we of the GMF actually do something. So I'm gonna steal an ideal from wizard's boards. Heres what we do, following the chapter 5 of the monster manual we vote on each step. The most popular of the choices will be used so in the end we come out with some wierd monster. Yea anyway, first is choosing the type of the monster.

Here are the choices: My vote goes to outsider.

I will count the votes in about 3 days or so, lets say the 2nd of April. (thats assuming this project goes anywhere)

This is a hard choice to make, with several favorites on the list (Construct, Undead, Fey, and more).

But my vote goes to...
...
...
Constructs!

Just as a side thought to keep things a little organized, maybe we should just go in order and rotate types. Just a thought.

But otherwise, I'd pick constructs also just because they are under utilized IMHO.

I will keep it organized this way. At the end of the 3 days I will go through and tally the vote posting the totals and all. Then we move on to the next stage, (subtypes i believe) and I do it again, etc. and so forth until we are done.

No problem. Just throwing ideas out for general consumption.

It's your project so go for it.

Oh, and since I forgot to say this the first time, great idea! It'll be interesting to see what spawn is forged in the crucible of diverse ideas and styles.

What ever happened to Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, & Species?


j/k, I guess my vote will go to constructs too.

My current campaign uses a heavy amount of Elemental types, so I'm going to vote for that in the selfish hope that I might end up with something I can use.

Can we take on dragons next?

My campaign needs some really weird dragons. So far I have conceptualized a Colossal++ sea dragon that has a seashell in the back, another that looks like a phoenix, plus another with fur and ram horns. But they need stat blocks...

"You turn into a dragon. The pink fluffy variety."
Sorry, that was a quote from an old Shadowrun game I played at camp. It was a very strange incident.

Construct or Undead is what I'd prefer. I always like monsters that don't need to breathe.
