Peryton and roc art in full!

I love that piece. It gives me the same vibes as the original Clash of the Titans movie from the 80s. I think it's my favorite piece we've seen from the new MM.

Need way more colorful creatures like the axe beak!

Behir

Difficult to tell from this alone (since this seems like not the full art), but I do hope the Behir keeps its "tube with stubby legs" look. The 2014 version looked slimy and amphibious, and reminded me a lot of an eastern lesser siren with too many legs.

This is what one of those looks like (albeit very blue; AFAIK they're usually grey or brown, this image might have slightly blown out saturation):

The gills even work as an analogue to the horns. And yes, sirens only have two limbs. They're weird little goobers.

This may be the first time I actually want to use a Peryton. That thing looks like a menace.

Like an even bigger menace than Dennis or Spider-Man.
