what is your favorite monster /tg/?I love minotaurs
>>96961658How did you use them in your game and in what game? I like to have random spiders in my encounter tables for adnd. Always gets thr players jumpy.
>>96961768>How did you use them in your game and in what game?I don't GM but we investigated a baphomet cult and that went rather poorly. basically the town fell to the cult, kinda our fault.
>>96961658I like dragons, but not the retarded D&D interpretation of dragons where they spend 95% of their time pretendingto be humans and getting into wacky adventures.I like the interpretation of dragons where they are apex predators and magical engines of destruction, whose territories may contain vast untapped resources or treasures of a past age for those willing to risk their wrath.
>>96961850so 1st edition dnd dragons
>>96961867Shh don't tell the nogames that.
>>96961879Imagine coming into a thread you have no intention of contributing to just to project your own insecurities.On an unrelated note, my players seem to love killing trolls and pathetic goblins.
I want to get more minotaur minis, I really like this one but I want something bigger and more ferocious
You just know
>>96961658Love me some minotaurs, I am a fan of pretty much any big guy with a big weapon. When playing a system where PCs are fragile, a big strong dude is a pretty convincing threat. Minotaurs, ogres, trolls, ogrillions if you're feeling spicy. With that said I have never run a fantasy game that lasted more than 1 session, and my crew prefers science fiction. But if they one day feel like some sword and sorcery you know some big bullman with an axe is going to show up.My favourite of favourites would probably be an ogre though, they're big, dumb, and fart. Peak enemy as far as I'm concerned.
>>96962176you can always do some doom inspired robo minotaur in space
>>96962204Very nice mini. Maybe I will. We're currently in Cyberpunk and I am planning to do some BioTechnica shenanigans at some point, a cybertaur with a minigun strapped to it would be a fine end of session challenge.
>>96961658
Griffon
>>96961658The most evil of them all
>>96961658Ogres and half-ogres.Big bastards, but somehow a bit too human. The evil relative.
>>96962679This nigga fucks.My favorites are Dragons because I'm that much of a basic bitch, but Gryphons (and Hippogryphs) are a very, very close second.An the Behir.I like the Behir too.
>>96962754Dragons may be cliche, but only because they're so easy to be fascinated by.>1. big, big things are cool>2. flying, flying things are cool>3. big flying thing, lizard brain instinctual fear of being swooped away>4. breathes fire, fire is cool>5. is basically a dinosaur, dinosaurs are cool>6. commits crime like kidnapping and theft of money, crime is coolIt has everything going for it, it's a victim of its own success.
Werewolf
Oozes, Cubes, Molds, Puddings, Jellies, and Slimes.Not a sex thing you weeb fucks.
>>96962878>Not a sex thingRiiiiight...
I love skeletons, and have ever since I first saw Jason and the Argonauts. They fit in any setting, are as customizable and scalable as any human enemy, and they look spooky/rad as fuck.
>>96965182skellies truly work with anything, not my personal favorite but definitely a classic
Werewolves.
Women. Sexy, sexy women...
>>96962878>Oozes, Cubes, Molds, Puddings, Jellies, and Slimes.What about wax monsters or tar/pitch sap/resin creatures?
>>96967585wemon aren't monst....wait a minute.. never mind
>>96961850Even though they've made a million and one different kinds of dragons you hardly see any of them get any screen time unlike the original metallic/chromatics.
>>96962878Same. If only because they've been done so many different ways.
>>96961658all sort of chimeras, like >>96962679
Snake women.
Minotaurs. Because of peak beef.
>>96971115the hard life of a minotaur pastoralist. People either trying to kill or steal his unicorns or confusing him as the cattle!
Jaguar
>>96971115I'm not gay, but...
>>96961658I love using harpies. They are a versatile monster that can be an ally as easily as an enemy, flight creates problem solving fights, and their singing can make the terrain really matter.
>>96971451Sometimes I forget that normal animals are also considered monsters.
>>96962862>>96967140>"Werewolves. Lycanthropes. Children of the Moon. They go by many epithets. What you should be aware of is that they are one of the most savagely powerful and brutal creatures that roam this Earth. It varies upon how one becomes a wolf, but it is either when you are bitten by another wolf, placed under a curse, or make a pact with the Devil. When the moon is in full bloom, praying will not do you any good. For when the beast emerges, it will hunt and kill with the instinct to survive. Do not underestimate the savagery of these monsters."
Mimics, by far.Living mimics that simply are monsters with mimicry of dungeon fixtures, construct mimics that are animated objects hidden as autonomous traps, shapeshifting mimics... Mimics as slimes, as arthropods, as spirits, as fungi. Mimics as threats, as wildlife, as NPCs...
I really like giants. They're so versatile. They can be a credible threat no matter the level, tailored for any sort of environment, they can be anywhere between wise and well spoken to unga bunga retards and the sheer spectacle of introducing one to the party is always a thrill at the table.

>>96977597
>>96961658I love all kinds of monsters, bestial dragons, Grifons, oozes/spore zombies, but I really like summons, the idea of having to sumon and controling your own monsters is awesome, so my prefered kind of monster is the familiar (ones from my country called Minairons exactly).
I'm fond of rats.
Orcs
I like otyughs
>>96962085Minotaur heifers belong to human BVLLS
>>96977822You ARE a rat, pucksqueak.
>>96971482no, you are gay
>>96961658>>96981519I wonder what would happen if a werewolf bit and infected a minotaur with it's werewolfitis?
>>96961658>what is your favorite monster /tg/?Chimera's have been my favourite to run. You can run each head as its own independent monster with a separate HP pool (but shared movement) and assign them different abilities and attacks. Makes for mechanical fun monster to run and play against, while still be an imposing single monster.Thematically though, its Dragons, in the style of Smaug or Glaurung.>>96965182>>96966807Skellies are up there too.>>96982385Well it would have a regular Bullman form, a Hybrid BullWolfMan form, and a Wolf form.
The DQ slime. He's cute.But I don't like that oozes/slimes get tarnished by fetishists who immediately think of slime anime girl porn. I really just like the small little round ball slimes because there's something cute about those small blobs. I also don't like the grimdark renditions of the slime monster.
>>96961850>not the retarded D&D interpretation of dragons where they spend 95% of their time pretendingto be humans and getting into wacky adventures.wasn't a problem until 5E
>>96977822Fat rats with fat guns
This thing.

>>96962878Same, but definitely a sex thing
>>96967863patrician. variant dragon, lizard, and shark women are also favs of mine. but snakes first an foremost.
>>96983294Lol, okay ahistorical anon.
>>96961658Anything shapeshifter. Works for intrigue stuff, and depending on the particular nature, can be a very interesting combat encounter due to changing its morphology throughout the fight.
>>96967863>Six arms>Only one set of breasts
>>96961658Hot take. All Bovidae are Minotaurs
undead
>>96981519Werewolves are really cool but there isn't a single modern IP really treating them right
>>96983294Gold dragons were shapeshifters back on 0e.Adventure modules started including shapeshifted dragons as early as 1e.They started showing up in setting guides in 3e.Please stop being wrong on the internet
>>96983242I prefer these from Phantasy Star II.https://www.pscave.com/ps2/enemies/amoeba.shtml
>>96989894Can you nut up and fight him in person already. I'm tired of both of you shitting up threads.
>>96997313They probably despise furries making fanart of them....like that is avoidable.
>>96961658I really like plants that look like creatures
>>96998097what about creatures that look like plants?
>>96998114Those are cool too
>>96997717Fuckee wouldn't give out his address. Trust me, there's more than just one anon who wants to get their hands on that prick (and bumpfag).
>>96961658I think Dullahans are really cool, a cursed, (sometimes) fey undead with unique features. I made one into the minion of the BBEG in my last campaign, though he only menaced the party a couple times before they found his head and used it to destroy him.I also think mimics are pretty cool.
>>96995177I accept that, but what are those cervidae doing in here?
>>96997859Furries make fanart of everything and they probably even hire furries considering how some of these designs go, but it's not like a werewolf needs to be high effort to look cool. It's just (what I assume) to be ginormous shit taste. They're kino horror monsters
I fuck with the classics.
>>97002365Oh cool. They are kind of attacking the gaps instead of the swords cutting through the armor like butter.
>>97002365source?
>>96986739
>>97002365sauce?
>>96971115
>>97010537Nah, you're wrong. Minotaur chads are straight, it's the wolf faggots who are the real homos. Werewolves are incredibly gay coded.
>>96962718Dire Humans! Are they always ravenous killers, similar to that of Texas Chainsaw Massacre/Wrong Turn kinds of rural psychos? Or do you do something else with them?
>>96983242How do you feel about The Blob? Original and the remake. Horrific ever hungry and ever growing mass of digestive acid.
>>97007427No. I would not...I would fuck a thicc rat ogre woman
>>97010571>codedSaying that shit is gayer than sucking cocks
Gnolls.
>>97011786>the wolf faggot yelps like a dog when exposed
>>97011817same!
>>97013111These look sick!
>Your party is attacked by the mandatory wolf pack of each game.
Lich
>>97010537Heh. What man can keep his heterosexuality when the bull man radiates bull handsomness and gentelness.
>>97013610>>97013111>>97011817Gnolls are based and I resent any attempt to make them neutral or player characters.
>>96961658Big SwingingUdders
>>97022636Yes... YES!!!
>>96961658I just really like giants
>>97010571It's only gay if you're the one getting mounted and knotted.
