YETI

In the snow-filled peaks of the highest mountain ranges, strange, ape-like creatures dwell. Distant kin to humans, these so-called yeti have followed a very different path. Though they are primitive and often brutal, there are also tales of lone yeti aiding snow-stranded travelers by bringing them food and taking them to shelter.

Yeti have no civilization. They do not build or make tools, yet some occasionally will use the tools of other races. They do have a crude, guttural language.

GIANT GAR--- Level 9 Soldier

Unlike their smaller cousins, giant gar tend to be aggressive hunters. They inhabit large, deep lakes and rivers, including underground lakes and rivers. These monstrous fish grow up to 30’ long.

OCTOPUS

An octopus is an eight-tentacled aquatic invertebrate related to squid. Normal octopi are generally not dangerous to humanoids, though there are exceptions. However, many monstrous varieties of octopi exist.

COFFER CORPSE

Coffer corpses are animate corpses. A subset of zombies, the main distinction of a coffer corpse is that, upon being slain, it spontaneously reanimates, frightening those near it.

DEADBORN

Deadborn are creatures modified before birth (whilst either in the womb or the egg) to spontaneously arise as undead when slain. The first deadborn were vultures created from the eggs of giant eagles by evil cultists of Bleak; now, the techniques and rituals exist to make deadborn of many different types.

DEADBORN HULK--- Level 14 Brute

A deadborn hulk is a deadborn crafted from a huge, malformed bear. Hideous rituals performed on the pregnant mother ensure that the newborn bear is a deadborn hulk. Deadborn hulks are very hard to control.

DEMONS

There are many different varieties of demons to be found in the Abyss- some might even say infinite varieties. Although the Monster Manual details many, there are many more, several of which are detailed here.

WHISPER DEMON--- Level 9 Lurker

A whisper demon is an insubstantial, ghostly creature that leers and smirks. It looks somewhat humanoid, but its form is shifting and distorted. Whisper demons are utterly insane, and love to watch other creatures kill themselves.

[Ranged] Whisper of Torment (standard; at will) Psychic: Range 10; +12 vs. Will; target makes an immediate basic attack on itself as a free action. (See also Create Spawn.)

Combat Advantage: If a whisper demon has combat advantage against an enemy that it forces to attack itself, that enemy deals an extra 1d6 points of damage to itself if it hits.

Create Spawn: If a creature kills itself due to the whisper demon's whisper or torment or mad whispers, it rises in one minute as a mad wraith.

JACKALWERE

Jackalweres are terianthropes- animals that can assume the form of a humanoid (usually but not always a human). In the case of jackalweres, the natural form of the creature is that of a jackal, but a jackalwere is most effective in its hybrid form and will almost always fight in it.

In its jackal form, it loses its ability to use weapons and speak and gains a bite attack (+14 vs. AC; 1d8+5 damage). In humanoid or hybrid form, its statistics remain the same. It remains in whichever form it assumes until it spends a minor action to change again, and is equally comfortable in all three forms for extended periods.

[Melee] Somnambulant Riposte (immediate reaction; when the jackalwere waghalter is hit by a melee attack; encounter) Sleep, Weapon: The jackalwere makes an attack on the creature that hit it: +16 vs. AC; Hit: 2d8+6 damage and target is dazed (save ends); Miss: target is dazed until the end of its next turn.

Alternate Forms (minor; at will) Polymorph: The jackalwere can assume three forms- that of a specific humanoid (usually a human), that of a jackal or a hybrid form. In its jackal form, it loses its ability to use weapons and speak and gains a bite attack (+18 vs. AC; 1d8+5 damage). In humanoid or hybrid form, its statistics remain the same. It remains in whichever form it assumes until it spends a minor action to change again, and is equally comfortable in all three forms for extended periods.

Updated to MM3 standards, and the rest of the energons from the Planar Handbook added, here.

ENERGON

Energons are strange creatures that embody different forms of energy. Appearing as a ball of energy with long tentacles trailing out of it, an energon can be bound as a guardian through the use of certain obscure rituals. However, it is very difficult to control one once it is summoned, so wise wizards and clerics set traps to summon these creatures when they are not around to see the results.
