Blackdirge's Suped Up Monster Thread: Monster Column Updated 06/26/06!

[Fieari]

Hey, Blackdirge... just wondering, would you mind posting a list of the names of the creatures on your ToDo list? My campaign is starting, and while I won't need the creature I requested for another few weeks, it'd be nice to know how long I may or may not need to stall at that point...

Hey all, new moster in the article section.

Also, I just wanted to let you all know that I am not done with this thread. I do plan to update it. I will not be able to do so frequently, but I do have monsters that I would like to share here. I also would like to go back and clean up some of the earlier monsters, which are still 3.0, and then add a menu for ease of reference.

Another great monster, Dirge. Can't wait to see what you have next, and I'm glad to hear you're going to be doing the occasional thing on this thread as well.

hi... I am new around here and was wondering if you could do a PC/NPC for me? I had tried many times to come up with the statisitcs... but heck.. no luck/knowledge so far.. nor the time to dig deeper into it.
maybe you like the idea...

the name:
Horrod Druu`giir
race: Drow
died and reborn as a Vampire. Later infused with Werewolf Blood, married in some sort to a Erinyes and drank of divine blood from a greater god. he is about 1200 years old by now.
So he should have the best aspects of everything he inherits and he has two weapons: a sword and a scimitar... (what they are cappable of is your choice)
Weapons of Chaos.. in some sort.

I `d like to see with what you can come up with... if you have the time...

thank you,

PS: I know its just about classic monsters... but the vampire and the werewolf are classic...

PC/NPC for me?

uh... which? (and you'd better not say "PC", or I'm calling hong on you.)

[chaos66666]

yeah.. well.
in the beginning he was a player character but that goes back years..

Now I use him ocasionally as an NPC.
Please do what you prefer. If a PC is better than an NPC then do a PC.. it would be great anyway.

Hey all,

The column has been updated with a monster that might even give the God-Eater a run for its money.

I'd like to put in a request for a phylactery guard. A slightly old idea:

Falen, the lich in question, is a Defiler druid. Her phylactery is stored in a forbidance warded pocket demiplane (she had help!). The plane is inside a bottle, any visitors get shrunk to a minute size. It's in a cave at the opposite end of the plane from the entrance. To get there, you have to cross devastated plains and forest.

I want to place a guardian out there. My initial thought was a very small undead vermin - not shrunk to fit the plane. From inside the bottle the thing would be an absolute monster.

I looked at making it an extremely large zombie or skeleton - but it just came across as a little boring, and most likely very easy to defeat... so I'd be interested in something that looks like this, but poses more of a challenge... Hopefully being able to deal with flyers or PCs deciding to hang back and attack from range.

Any normal sized bug or small animal would do. For some reason, either a mouse or cockroach appealed.

Ideally it would weigh in at CR 13.

If you've got time for this one it'd be really cool!
