[QUOTE="Ltheb Silverfrond, post: 3957586, member: 39867"] I went with choices that I would think would aid in epic adventure design: Abominations & Entities - They seem like cool boss monsters. :) Great fluff and easy to build an adventure around. Dragons - Same reason - Big and nasty. Elementars and elementals - I like elementals, and they seen like (to me) a good type of epic level 'mook' enemy. Golems - These are pretty cool and are usually surprising foes. (They make good switch-hit encounters) Pseudonaturals - Because Azath-I mean Algol needs minions. :) (and because they have strange attack forms to trip up the players) Umbrals - These sound interesting. Both kinds of undead - Undead don't have much going for them in epic, as the lack of a constitution and 1/2 BaB means they need silly amounts of HD to function. (Though WotC printed an ability in a MM3 called Unholy Toughness which remedies that) I would have voted for magical beasts but I didn't want to oversaturate the poll. :) The others seem like interesting options, but demons and angels can technically be created with Ascension. Inevitables and Intelligables sound really cool, but I held off on them because I would prefer to see other monster types first. [/QUOTE]
