Part of me wonders what the game designers would think of this thread. There's a part of me that thinks it would probably be dismissed as "nerd rage," as the vernacular would have it.

I'm pretty sure they're laughing as hard as we are.

I'm pretty sure they're laughing as hard as we are.

I tend to agree with that assessment. It was part of the setup to deliver the "nerdrage namehater" joke. But it's okay, either no one else got it or thought it was funny.

 

[Dannyalcatraz]

Oh no, we got it! And I thought its humor was self-evident, so I didn't comment on it.

Frost Worm = Giant Chlllwiggler

Giant Owl = Huge Hooter

Efreeti = Flaming Bottlepoof Wishbringer

Anthropomorphic Dog = Man-Dingo

That linked website gave me some sure strange results. After clicking through a lot of generated results, the following had the most potential for new (humorous) monsters:


* feyfox strangler
* pigscale cursesentinel
* horsetentacle poisonghost
* spikebadger sentinel (actually rather cool!)
* treecow swooper
