[QUOTE="Morrus, post: 7861552, member: 1"] We will be producing a hardcover book next year called Mythological Figures & Maleficent Monsters. It's inspired by Mike Myler's awesome weekly column here at EN World, though it will be monster/NPC stat blocks rather than character builds. These can be mythological figures, such as Lancelot, or monsters, such as Cerberus. Gods, demi-gods etc. are welcome; but remember, if it has a stat block somebody can kill it. This is the full list as it stands at present. These are all [B](a) fictional, [/B] [B](b) individual[/B] (so no creature types, just specific named beings), and [B](c) public domain[/B]. I'd like to get this list up to 100 total, so another 42 are needed. So, if there's somebody you'd like to see, suggest them below. Also, include a link in case I don't know who it is. 1 Achilles 2 Aladdin 3 Anzu 4 Arachne 5 Arthur 6 Atalanta 7 Baba Yaga 8 Beowulf 9 Black Shuck 10 Brünnhilde 11 Cerberus 12 Chupacabra 13 Circe 14 Conan the Barbarian 15 Cthulhu 16 Cu-Sith 17 Daedelus 18 Dagon 19 Don Quixote 20 Dr Jekyll/Mr Hyde 21 Dracula 22 Drona 23 Elizabeth Bathory (post-mortem) 24 Fafnir 25 Fenrir 26 Frankenstein’s Monster 27 Ghatanothoa 28 Gilgamesh 29 Grendel 30 Hastur 31 Headless Horseman 32 Hippolyta 33 Hodag 34 Hua Mulan 35 Jackalope 36 Jersey Devil 37 Lancelot 38 Loki 39 Merlin Ambrosius 40 Morgan le Fay 41 Mothman 42 Nessie the Loch Ness Monster 43 Nyarlathotep 44 Odysseus 45 Penthesilia 46 Perseus 47 Robin Hood 48 Sage Douban 49 Saint George 50 Shub-Niggurath 51 Sinbad 52 Storm Hag 53 Sun Wukong 54 Talos 55 Tarzan 56 Thor 57 Yig, Father of Serpents 58 Yog-Sothoth [/QUOTE]
