[QUOTE="dvvega, post: 7748135, member: 524"] I was around 9 or 10 when my mother returned from the USA on a business trip with the start of my AD&D gaming life. Until this time I had played Basic and Expert. She turned up with the Player's Handbook, Dungeon Master's Guide, Monster Manual 1, Deities and Demigods and the Fiend Folio. Of all the books, the Fiend Folio was my favourite. It had a completely different feel to the others - of course, this was partially due to the "English" nature of the book. In addition, words were spelt correctly (I am Australian after all) :) Some of my favourite creatures (for various reasons) included the Dark Stalker and Dark Creeper, Kenku, Mite, Yellow Musk Creeper and Zombies, and the Grell. I am sure there are various others like the Xag-Ya and Xeg-Yi which were a purely fun creature combination when players had no idea what was going to happen when the two creatures occupied the same space :) Anyway, the Fiend Folio is one of my fondest AD&D books just for its difference and slight weirdness.
