Hey, I DID my time as a lowly flail snail -- ON TO BIGGER AND BETTER THINGS!

Wait!!

When did everyone quit the flail snail club??

HM

Can't quit a club you haven't joined.

<------

Mind your generalizations, HM.

Then again, I think I might be happy as a Trilloch for now. After all, I get featured supporting a Vampiric Red Dragon in Exemplars of Evil (albeit, an advanced version of a Trilloch).

Sorry I'll be sure to XP you up to Flail Snail so you can be truly slow and slimy.

Dang! I can't xp you YET, DW! I want to watch you slithering around on your belly with a cool shell on your back!

Just please make sure it's a reason beyond "Here's some XP!"

I like having a strange, false sense of accomplishment when I get XP.

Like I said earlier, I don't really mind being a critter that hangs out with and supports a big powerful Vampiric Red Dragon. Plus I know what 3.X book Trilloch was printed in (even if I don't have it), unlike Flail Snail.

I don't think Flail Snail made it to 3e did it?

If so watch out Jareth

Interesting! I can't seem to locate it in any of my 3.X monster books! The closest I can find are the: Flay Beast in Creature Collection III, Savage Bestiary, and the Flailing Dreadnought in Creature Collection II, Dark Menagerie. The Wizards monster books don't even get that close, not even FF! I seem to remember it being in the 1E Fiend Folio, but I can't locate my copy just now to confirm that.

Or it could be in a Dragon issue. I just know I hadn't heard of it before the level-name changes.

Oh, come on! First a hydra, then a Flail Snail (whatever a FS is, anyway

)... Though at least now, Jareth can cause some damage. Moreso if I ever get a set of Boots of Striding and Springing...

I do remember Flail Snails being in the 1E AD&D Fiend Folio. Of that I am quite certain. Still, I sure would like to find my copy so I could visually confirm my memory.

I even remember the picture, too. Ugly Boogers they are!

Look, you made him sad.
