What monsters should be in a sequel to Tome of Horrors?

[Crothian]

I'd just like to see a little higher level of detail.

How so?

How so?

Expanded detail on what the creature is like, habits and habitat. Details to make the creatures able to be used as more 3 dimensional creatures instead of most of the description be about their combat special abilities. Of all the monster books I really like Monsternomicon the most because of the level of detail they have.

After reading this thread, I think I'll have to scrape up some pennies and go get the Tome of Horrors now. Here all this time I had ignored it, not fully aware that it was a monster book, and even if I had known that, I'm not sure it would have drawn my interest, as I don't even use nearly that many monsters from the 4 monster books I have. But what has decided me, or should I say, the most decisive factor, is:

Gotta have the freaky lil frog men.

The book is filled with old favorites.

i'd love to have more of the ecology/society stuff in there, a la 2E. WotC doesn't seem to care much about it though, and the other d20 books tend to follow suit. when i do my conversions, i try to keep as much of that stuff in there as i can without bogging it down with details. if it got edited out when it saw print, i couldn't help that.

Awwww, sucks. You're just sayn' that because there is a monster in there called the Demiurge.

All silliness aside, thanks for the compliment on the originals. I hope they give your players many hours of fear and loathing.

That was easily the coolest little surprise when I finally got my copy. Keep up the good work.
Perhaps more cryptids could get into print, like the death worm did.

Demiurge out.

That's why I think we need to see that stuff in there, to set the books apart. I say that stuff in Monsternomicon and I bought it then and there.

Funny story about that ... lol. I had no idea that the Death Worm in the Tome was actually a beefed up version of my "Mongolian Death Worm" that I did for my Call of Cthulhu site. Then I noticed my name in the credit section and was like, "Well lookee there!" lol
