Noxious Fumes Don't snicker at methane. Remember, that's the same gas that collapses mine tunnels and makes open flames explode. Too much of it will make you pass out, too. Also, methane in purest form is mostly odorless, and it is colorless. Imagine a Dragon that coughs out a big thick cloud...

Too Weird? Are you kidding? Weird is Good. I really like this variant. It's a very creative take on the whole Rongoon thing, and it's got a couple ideas I wished I came up with on my own. Don't worry too much about the saves... I found Rongoon's to be substantially high too, particularly with...

Ritzy Horror You have to give points to anything nightmarish that wears an outfit like that. The fashion sense is a great touch. As far as the rest of it, potentially really nasty. I like tossing in a lot of subtlety to my critters, and I see a lot in this one. This would be a fun beast to...

Bump Is there too much fear of Rongoon to criticize him? ;) Fishing for criticisms, here... -MsM

Chosen Chosen One of Rongoon (Template) This template can be applied to a sentient creature of size H or smaller, after it is swallowed and regurgitated by Rongoon. The creature's type changes to Undead, with all corresponding abilities, HD level, attribute changes, etc. Creatures already...

SPeaking with the Dead Pete, you've got Destriers. :) Sorry again about the formatting on that... -MsM

Foul Humours Cultivating a VILE green thumb... 1: SR looks good to me, and I think that our damage type to stymie Regeneration should be something to do with blessed weapons, or something similarly 'holy'. 2: I like the idea of the thing being a parasite that can become incorporeal...

.... I'd find an Armadillaphant distracting too. It's a done deal, 'Pete. Let me get back to my home computer, and I'll mail you the article. :) -MsM

Horses from Hell Dragon 243 is the one you want, 'Pete. He's got it listed up there, too. ;) If you don't have access to the article itself, I'll be happy to send it to you. -MsM

Green Thumb From Hell Hey, I like that idea. It would let us give it a very nice range of powers, but the randomness of it would offset the potency somewhat. Plus, it gives flavor to the critter. Nice shot, 'Storm. -MsM

Our Demonic Gardener I turn my head for a second and you guys plant entirely too many posts. Pun, yes, sorry. Simplified version! -Spell Resistance? Yes, and one elemental immunity... actually, I prefer fire as the immunity in this case. Everyone expects fire to be the plant-bane. Let's make...

Ahem Why is it that these posts always look 3 times longer on the board than when I'm working on them? Sorry, y'all. Also, some of you may find it amusing that my nickname for this thing is the 'Papal Bull'. ;) -MsM

Rongoon So I log on and find all this grand info AFTER I finish my version of Rongoon. :) It's all good. Here's a version of the beast itself, from an apparently slightly different point of view. Much oblige, Jester, for the saving throw hint. It's very, very useful. And thanks to Telim Tor...

Compost Liche There's some good ideas floating around on this thing. I agree with the image that it isn't very quick, necessarily, but the idea of it transferring to another host should be a possible problem. Imagine the fun of the characters whomping a Tendriculous or something, thinking it...

Vileness This has been a thread with great amounts of gravity. I keep getting pulled back to read it. The way things have turned, I've got a little bit to add... first, for the record, I was not at all shocked at issue 300. The only thing that made me raise eyebrows was the demon-semen spell...

Rongoon Revisited Yes, still hammering this guy out. I'm having some difficulty in determining the save bonuses for a Magical Beast with 50 HD. (Yes, he's very epic, but that's only appropos, given his story...) Any thoughts on that? Is there a quick and dirty way to determine save bonuses for...

Halutans/Halutani/Halutes Thank you for answering the questions... they make a bit more sense to me now. I'm always interested in how the critter meshes with the world it's in. Stats wise, I can't dispute much; I'm still a little shaky on some of the numerical standards in 3rded monster...

Hellspores I agree; Shamblers are too tough for minion generation, but I think it would make a grand host body. How about something like a corrupted version of Myconids? That is, if we decide it can make animals into minions. I was adhering to the idea that it viewed animals as potential...

Comprehension through Pugilation Are the Halutan specifically designed for Scarred Lands? The physical concept is one I like, and the 'sprint' is probably my favorite of their capabilities. What I'm curious about is what role you would like these things to play in your campaign. How did they...

Revising Rongoon I am using Magical Beast as the basis. Rongoon will be the first epic level monster I've done a design for, so it's taking me a little while to make sure he's appropriately balanced out. My original version was just stupidly tough, but the MsM version of Rongoon should be...
