Scariest Monsters?

[the Jester]

Just thought I'd give this a bump to see if it would get any more traffic...

Yeah, I have to add pennangelan and neh-thalgu to my list as well. Love both of those monsters.

The idea of ability drain from a creature you can't even hurt is scary for me.

Most stuff from the Epic Level Handbook. Atropals in particular, huge, evil, stillborn babies... yeech. Worm that walks, that creature that looks like a thousand wings. And no one mentioned neogi, they freak me out, especially what happens when they get older.

 

[Nightfall]

Bah. Slacerian Dragon baby. That one STILL scares the crap out of people.

what would REALLY scare the bloody heck outta me:
an elvish child.... with access to caffiene and sugar. and the family spellbook.

the scariest? has to be the succubus from 1E... any gorgeous naked batwinged woman who acted as if she was interested in kissing me would surely scare me...

The flumph! The terror of the flumph!

Seriously, though Mind Flayers, Shadow Demons, Beholders - they are all excellent picks. But I would have to go with the lich - or the demi-lich. Or perhaps more specifically, from the Monsternomicon the Iron Lich.
