Creatures By Poll - what monster Types should we use?

[BOZ]

Too many types for one poll. if you vote for something which has more than one option, please give a specific answer below, to tell me what you want, what you really really want!
keep in mind, that if one of our monsters winds up being a Dragon, size and Hit Dice are essentially meaningless - although, they could give some good ideas for what it's averages might be.

Anything rotting and filled with maggots gets my vote

Well...

As much as I love undead, and I love constructs (and by the way, how cool is it that that's a formal type in 3E?!), I think that these and outsider are probably among the best-represented and most popular categories of creature. But maybe I'm just projecting.

I voted for aberration, but I think that there's some room for interesting shapechangers, too. Ooh, or maybe cool plants. I'm not convinced that the world needs many more kinds of oozes than we've already got in 3E (um, yeah, it's the deadly chartreuse custard!).

Well, I voted for shapechangers because it seems that the only type you run across is dopplegangers and lycanthropes and, while fun, I think they're both getting a bit stale. I'd like to have a few new form-switching baddies to throw up against unsuspecting parties.

i expected an early lead for outsiders and aberrations... but what does suprise me is that undead haven't gotten a vote yet!

Abberation: Such a Wide field, It can contain humanoid Brain drainers, to Mouthers! Also almost all abberations are cool.

 

[Ferret]

Yeah we DO need more plants and shapechangers

That is sort of weird. But I have to say that, as much as I like undead, the field is pretty crowded as it is. (It's a skeleton, only, um, it's ON FIRE!)

I agree that aberration is good because it covers such a wide range of possibilities.

(Slightly off-topic, but have you guys seen SSS' Hollowfaust: City of Necromancers? If you like undead and necromancy (er, in your game, that is!) as much as I do, you owe it to yourselves to check it out. Very cool.)

Looks like Aberrations are in a clear lead.

Hey call me weird but I think we need more mundane (but alien) animals

Yeah just straight animals without supernatural abilities

Things I can train for the Circus Maximus
Things a ranger can have as a companion

basic animals...
