[QUOTE="Richards, post: 8290922, member: 508"] I've made plenty of custom monsters over the years. One of my less serious was the Dire Rhea...but while its creation was pretty much a joke (mainly just to see how many diarrhea puns I could fit into the write-up), I did actually finally use a couple of these critters in an island adventure I wrote for my last campaign. Among my more serious creations are the impaler (an animated construct with a spike at the headless neck, upon which is impaled the severed head of a humanoid, which retains the memories and abilities it had while alive - it gave me the chance to "reuse" slain enemies I wasn't quite through with, in a different means than just having them [I]raised[/I] or [I]resurrected[/I]); necrospheres (flying metal spheres - kind of like those found in the [I]Phantasm[/I] movies - that constantly shoot black lightning bolts between them, allowing me to attack any and all creatures they could "surround" as they flew past each round); and the grave medusa (an undead skeleton with writhing worms fused into its skull in place of the medusa's snakes-for-hair scheme). I haven't used that last one yet, but I've written the adventure in which it will appear; now it's just a matter of time.... Johnathan [/QUOTE]
