RPG Monster-Mashup Invitational

Hairfoot

First Post
Pre-crash, an ENworlder wittier than I started a thread based on the Washington Post's Mensa Invitational, in which "readers take any word from the dictionary, alter it by adding, subtracting, or changing one letter, and supply a new definition."

This year's winners were:

1. Intaxication: Euphoria at getting a tax refund, which lasts until you realize it was your money to start with.
2. Reintarnation: Coming back to life as a hillbilly.
3. Bozone (n.): The substance surrounding stupid people that stops bright ideas from penetrating.

So, I present to you the 2006 RPG Monster-Mashup Invitational. To kick off:

Half-orca: proposed 4E race which receives bonuses to hit seals and penguins.
Monster Manuel: Pedro's big brother.
Gothyanki: misundertood creature from the plane of Limbo. Frequently mistaken for a vampire.
Paving throw: ammunition for giant-sized slings.
