Monsters of Suck

[Nightfall]

Shade,

Would be nice to see the ecology of the Aurumvorax too. *always did like those golden balls of fury.*

Btw there's nothing wrong with having Spawn of Kyuss in the ecology.

I remember articles about gorbels and osquips.

I remember writing those articles about gorbels and osquips. Sometimes it's the "sucky" monsters that are the most fun!

Oh, don't get me wrong. I enjoyed most of the Monster Hunters' Association ecology series (is that what they were called? It's been so long). I enjoyed the scene in the gorbel article where Lady... um... the old stuffy one went berserk after one exploded on her.

It still thought they were too silly for my games.

I'm betting on the Catoblepas, personally.

Wasn't the C.I.F.A.L. voted one of the worst monsters in Polyhedron.

Now, the Adherer, there's a monster of suck.

Blasphemy!

Oh I have used cifals before - great creature!

I vote gambado! And the phantom fungus mecha-droid thing.

From 3e, the one that takes the cake is, without question (IMHO) the tojanida.

From earlier editions, I'm giving the 'biggest chump' award to- the protein polymorph.

Although the throat leech is a close 2nd...

I cannot recall if our little buddy is in any current edition monster book, so here you go:

The Aurumvorax is a small creature? Time to bust out the ole 1E MMII. ..

Ironically, I think that one is reasonably faithful to the folkloric monster.
