[QUOTE="Alzrius, post: 3089985, member: 8461"] I'm glad BOZ sent out those invitations, because I might have missed this thread completely otherwise. Most of my older D&D books are in the attic, so I can't reference them directly. That said, here's some nominations that I'm pulling completely out of memory. [b]Wyrd[/b] - I think this was the creature's name. It was that elf-like creature, that might have been undead, from the D&D [i]Creature Catalog[/i], that hurled energy spheres. There was also a Greater Wyrd as well. [b]Decapus[/b] - Also from the CC, this funny little guy was an arboreal octopus that had ten tentacles, and dropped onto you from above. I love this guy, and think he'd be great fun to have back. [b]Gray Philosopher[/b] - Another CC critter, this undead sat and did nothing while the malevolent thoughts he conjured up attacked adventurers as small ghost-like creatures. [b]Birch Spirit[/b] - From [i]White Dwarf #28[/i], these are the souls of murdered dryads, which now live in birch trees and spectrally reach into a humanoid's heart to kill it. [b]Black Unicorn[/b] - Also from WD #28, these are good unicorns superior to the normal breed, and live in mountainous forested regions. The last two were added mostly because I needed five, but I think the first three are things I'd really love to see in [i]Dragon[/i]. :) [/QUOTE]
