[QUOTE="el-remmen, post: 2913243, member: 11"] I only own the 3.0 MM, MoF and the Creature Collection and have never used anything from the last one - and am a big critic of the versions of stuff in the second. Anyway, here is a list of every monster I used in my 5 year "Out of the Frying Pan" game (warning spoliers for my story hour): [sblock] Goblins Wolves Blink Dog Zombie Skeleton Lesser Mummy (homebrew) Bone Spider (homebrew) Humans Black Bear Badger Gnomes Half-fiend Gnomes Fiendish Wolverines Flail Snail (w/ fire element template from MoP) Gargoyles Elves Otyugh Giant Spider Quaggoth Half-ogre/Frost Giant (homebrew) Fiendish Manticore (w/levels of psion) Gnolls Hyenadon Protein Polymorph (adapted) Wight Shadows Ogre Zombies Cockatrices Stone Giants Baneguards Half-Dragon Lizardfolk Ranger Brown Mold Umber Hulk Cifal Blazing Bones Dwarven Ghouls Shriekers Violet Fungi Ghast (w/cleric levels) Skrag (w/barbarian levels) Kuo-toa Stone Golem (in dog form) Drow Orcs Psuedo-Undead (fantasy equivalent of goth kids with magic items that mimic undead abilities) Trolls Wyvern Firbolgs Fire Newts Giant Striders Fiendish Chimera Earth Elemental (in dire boar form) Thoqua Boggles Crypt Thing Needlemen Ju-Ju Zombies Blue Slaadi Shedu Air Elemental Huge Fiendish Wyvern Modrons (of various kinds) Para-elementals (Ooze, Smoke, Ice & Magma) Greater Succubus (homebrew - a mix of succubus and maralith) ~ some kind of planar worm from the MoP (I forget the name) Dretch Axoimatic Wolves Axiomatic Blink Wolf (homebrew)[/sblock] Some of the creatures on the list were faced more than once - for example, the fiendish gnomes were recurring villians and "humans" covers everything from evil monks to town guards to local thugs to barbarian raiders. I may have forgotten some. . . But basically, my opinion on the matter is that new monsters are not as important as presenting new ways or versions of existing ones. [/QUOTE]
