Silly Monsters

[Inconsequenti-AL]

I used an Elder Tojanida in a lagoon on a carribean style island... was pretty scary and led to one of the stranger things I've ever had to rule. The party ended up in the water, most of them stuggling to swim. The Psion used the Polymorph Aura (think that was the name - old 3.0 ability) to change into a 'plump juicy salmon'. It ate him as the rest of the party laughed... Then he changed into a Rhino.

My silly votes go for:

Phantom Fungus - An Invisible killer plant - meh!

The Ethereal Filcher has a really silly name. And picture.

And the Vargouille - flying shrieking kissy heads. Not my thing.

The Phantom Fungus remembers me somehow of a plant mech...Never used that monster, it looks just stupid.

I'm positive you can't polymorph into an ooze. And why would you want to... just to do an ooze?

*shrug* Who says oozes reproduce sexually, anyway.

That's going to take a lot of alcohol and/or other mind-affecting substances. I mean really, the only humans I know of who would do something like that involved an overdose of steroids or cocaine and inanimate objects.

Do a search on the subject of strange things that male humans have, ahem, interfaced with. Oozes start to look positively sane. Besides, after a few thousand years, some dragons might start to get a bit jaded, and do stranger and stranger things in search of a new thrill.

To make this complete, you need stunjelly walls.

Did you know that one of our forum members invented the stunjelly? True!

A couple quick words in defense of the flumph: it's a lawful good pancake that flies by farting, but has skunk musk, and... and...

err.

I've got nothing.

I nominate the Berbalang.

Idiotic creature. Active only on the 3 days of the full moon, otherwise it's found totally asleep, astrally projecting itself thousands of miles away on the astral plane, and takes 1d100 rounds to try to come back before it gets easily killed... and it only has 3 HD and bad AC.

What's the point?

 

[Random Goblin]

There's an astoundingly similar thread on rpg.net that can be found here.

Unsurprisingly, many of the same conclusions were reached.

Half-dragons! Dragons are insatiable, and will mate with anything from gelatinous cubes to dolphins, So you are saying at one time Captain James T Kirk visited D&D land.

The balloon people from under the storm giant's castle. Old judges guild module.
The tween
The carbunle
The bee people from the new mm2

Are there any oozes there? I want to do them!

The Auld Grump, ahhh - the Dead Alewives...

And don't forget the susurous... The horrible result of breeding a gorilla with a loufa plant...

Let us not forget the Executioner's Hood.

Hope you're carrying a lot of booze.

Edit: I just remembered the Mek. Meks were 25 foot tall robots, supposedly created by an ancient race of sorcerers; essentially a “Mech”.
I couldn't find it in the AD&D books so I'm assuming it's from D&D rather than AD&D.
