Pit Fiend => Pet Fiend (devilishly cute li’l suckers)

 

[Eltab]

Pit Fiend -> Wit Fiend. The horrible-ized version of a Sphinx, or something that will out-perform a Bard in a contest of smart one-liners.

Pit Fiend => Pit Field (devilish field of traps)

 

[Lanefan]

Pit Fiend => Pit Friend (one charm later...)
Kobold => Kobald (the hairless variety. Wait, what; they're hairless already? Well, hell...)
Hill Giant => Hell Giant (just another big ol' demon)
Hill Giant => Hall Giant (school recess rules enforcer)
Hill Giant => Hull Giant (we're gonna need a bigger boat)
Mummy => Dummy (the only 0 x.p. monster in the game)
Ogre Mage => Ogre Sage (a genius among its people)
Will o' Wisp => Will o' Lisp (thay what?)

 

[Dannyalcatraz]

Ogre Mage => Ogre Madge (the Ogre Mage chief tan’s eldest daughter)

Ogre Mage => Ogre Mate (Madge, after she gets married off)

Ogre Mage => Ogle Mage (a peeping Tim*)







*Yes, that was intentional.

Spite => these fairies are dicks
Toll = > You'll pay to cross this bridge
Amodeus => This demon will rock you

Mind Player => You're screwed.
Hind Slayer => Might need some Preparation H for that
Dork => mostly harmless. Will follow you and spout useless trivia about all the monsters you encounter

Ghust => An ill-wind blown from the nether regions of hell

"I've never seen a diamond in the flesh
I cut my teeth on wedding rings in the movies
And I'm not proud of my address
In a torn-up town, no postcode envy"

Sorry Janz, but...

Rackshasa: the female of the species with all the curves.

and you forgot...

Mork: Not harmless if riled, but can throw off some zinger one-liners. Acts like he comes from a different world.
