[QUOTE="Winterthorn, post: 359909, member: 1702"] Hi folks, In light of the MM II arriving virtually on our doorsteps, it got me to wondering... I was looking at my old 2E "Complete book of Humanoids" in conjunction with the title to this thread. So, I must ask, whatever happened to the 3E versions of: Beastman Fremlin Gremlin Voadkyn Flind Mongrelman Half-Ogre Saurial Steel Dragon Swanmay And particularly galling (IMO), because there's no logic to its omission: :glaring with hands on hips tapping foot impatiently: the [b]Brownie[/b]! This critter was a staple LG fey of D&D for decades--why the heck is it missing from 3E? (Not even in the upcoming MM2!) Maybe I should have titled this thread "Where's the Brownie"? :D Anyways, I invite ppl to add to this list other D&D monsters (all editions) you believe are forgotten, neglected etc. And... IF you know where to find "well rendered"/"official" versions of those listed above or by others in later postings, please let us know. (Let's just keep to citing their names and where to find them. Please be specific per monster too as there may be many "sources" worth looking at in some cases.) All help, leads and shared info would be most welcome. Perhaps we could make the EN World list of monsters MIA :) BTW, in a more serious note: I would like dedicate this thread to all those who are sincerely missed since last year... :( :cool: -W.
