Flumphs?

[Voadam]

Rumour has it that the rare and hard-to-find Son of a Portable Hole has a six-page section about flumphs...

The flumphonomicon it was called. A rare and esoteric treatise on flumphs and their kin, as well as some prestige classes, a clerical domain and other fell flumphic items.

In fact, I may have a moldy copy of the flumphonomicon somewhere around here...

aha, mind the mold.

(oh, and pardon the low-res version - to make it fit as an attachment I had to save it at 100 dpi instead of my usual 150-300 dpi)

Lo, I have seen the son of a portable hole, and lived to tell of it. Yea, it is full of flumphy goodness, but beware the fallen flumph for his spikes are most dangerous (Unless you flip him over of course).

We will not speak of the astral diva or the fiendish blind and deaf kobolds though. On such forbidden magical summonings it is best not to dwell too long.

It's a Lawful Good useless creature with a silly name who flies by farting, and it spits acid. Basically, the kind of thing that two gamers come up with by being thoroughly drunk and discussing games at 2 in the morning.

The whole "don't like him" thing seems pretty cut and dried to me.

i showed the Dungeon article to a younger gamer in our crowd, who declared that the flumph was so cool that he loved them and wanted to play one.

I'm surprised nobody with a flumph avatar has posted to this thread yet. A thread like this needs a picture of a flumph. Universally hated? Humph!

Agreed, Flumphs are just really stupid.

But (BiggusGeekus, I'm keeping my eye on you!) Bullywugs rock!

Flumphs may seem not serious, but all they need is the extraplanar subtype and they're OK.

IMC, flumphs are strange natives from a weird alien world, a realm of fungi, verminoids, and other weird creatures. (Take Dendri from Beyond Countless Doorways, turn it into a giant Dagobah-like bog, replace all vegetal life with their fungal equivalent, and have it as the native world of creatures like myconids and vegepygmies, and, yes, flumphs, in addition to the "verminoid" formians and ettercaps. Remove all true humanoids. You have a good approximation of that place.)

Awww, I was aiming at the "hook 'em horns/devil horns"

Yeah, but kids these days think Yu-gi-oh and Star Wars Episode I are cool, so we already know they have no taste.
