I made a thread here http://www.enworld.org/forum/d-d-legacy-discussion/309077-making-creature-2.html about making a creature from one of my favorite video game bosses, and I was thinking it would be awesome to have a thread for people who have made monsters and/or builds of there favorite video game characters/monsters. Basically, if anyone wants to post something to that effect, I'd love to see it, and so that other people here can see them, and if anyone wanted to see a favorite video game character/monster converted into a D&D version of itself, maybe someone could help them on this thread.

Oh! Final Fantasy has this neat creature! It's called...
FF4PSP_Mindflayer.png

A Mind Flayer! They're a caster type, with tentacle faces and do a Mind Blast attack. Could be cool in D&D.

Ok, more serious. I'd love to see Final Fantasy's Espers incorporated into D&D. Unique, Rank 0 demigod creatures of an elemental bent as summonable or able to be interacted with. That would be cool.

While I'm at it, Materia fashioned like Augment Crystals in MIC could be cool.
 


AWESOME idea.. I would like to see deathevn (I think that is how you spell it) the final boss from Breath of Fire 2 ...

A classic would be Lavos from Chrono Trigger (Magus from Chrono Trigger would made an AWESOME creature too)...

Breath of Fire 4's Ryu and Fou-Lou split powers dynamic would be cool in creatures maybe a race of twins or something (along with their dragon shifting abilites)...

The game Planescape Torment has a creature called the Transcendent One (the final boss) I would like to see the stats for that thing; although it was probaly the easiest boss I have ever played its concept was cool (those stats may already be out there somewhere considering it is a D&D game; actually the boss for Icewind Dale and Icewind Dale Heart of Winter were super easy too, maybe they should have amped the power level of the bosses it those games)
 

1. Patrick Galloway from Clive Barker's Undying. Basically pistol wielding magic user with psy-crystal like stone thingy that hightens (and otherwise enhances) his spellcasting. Dispell, Ectoplasm (force projectile), limited flight, scrye (sort of true-seeing combined with foresight), haste, shield and my FAVORITE - skull storm lol And not to forget he wields a MAGICAL SCYTHE with vorpal against baddies XD
2. Space marine/Chaos marine like uber-soldier (could be combined with Warforged for grand results, since Juggernaut is not all that shiny [pun intended]). I am aware that this actually a table-top game, but there are a couple of video games featuring these.
3. Transformer-like warforged PrC would be amazing to see.
4. Jedi/sith like class using a force power system. Actually, I did play one in a homebrew game where we imported stuff from SW setting lol

I've posted this build before, but Xigbar, of my username sake, from Kingdom Hearts 2. Wizard 1/Fighter 2/Rogue1/Swordsage 16. Immediate Magic Conj. from PHB 2, and he dual wields Aptitude Weapon Keen Everloaded Splitting Handcrossbows of Speed. With Aptitude Weapon, used for Shadow Blade Feat, Crossbow Sniper, and Swordsage levels, I applied 1.5 times Dex Mod, plus Wis Mod, plus any left over enhancement bonus I could afford, on a total of 20 shots, more if under haste. Belt of Battle if you really want to send them home crying, although that can be said of a lot of builds.
 

How about some classics? Mario, Link, and Kirby.

Mario I would label a Human Monk. Maybe Monk/Fighter? I assume his fireballs and other such abilities would be treated as varieties of ki.

Link would be an Elf or Half-Elf Ranger/Fighter. Seemed a bit obvious, but I think it works with him as a weapon & shield focused ranger.

And Kirby (because I found it a silly but fun idea)... Hm for the race I honestly have no idea, probably some type of monster with class levels. Maybe Sorcerer/Bloatmage with the dreamspun bloodline for the class?

How about a doppelganger, for the ability copying thing, who just likes to assume the form of a pink...thing?
 

Sonic the Hedgehog: gnome or halfling Barbarian/PsyWar with Spiked armor. I add in bladed gauntlets to add in a bit of Wolverine into the mix.
