Monster:Main Page

The Monster section is intended to be a list of baddies for players to fight. Whether actual monsters, animals, bugs, or real people, this is just a good collection of them.

• Blackbeak - Large birds which resemble an ostrich/dodo with a large beak. Incapable of flight, but possess powerful legs and small wings which allow them to jump great distances and touch down lightly.

• Bullhound - Ill tempered dogs with large horns and a vicious bite.

• Buzzkunk - Large buzzing insects, about as big as a small dog, which emit a noxious gas when agitated and attack with a wicked stinger.

• Devil-monkey - Pesky little simian with eight legs, a tail, eight creepy eyes and poisonous mandibles.

• Devourer -

• Dolon - The spirit of a dead being, which has taken on a physical force, if not a physical substance. Dolons "possess" things which give them a vaguely humanoid appearance: skeletons, their rotting former bodies, suits of armor,

• Doormen - These beings resemble a hooded humanoid with a ruin of a face which is spotted with many eyes staring from within the folds of its robes. Their hands are made of chitinous pincher-like digits. They stand on two legs and have a mouth, but no nose.

• Drake - Large flying reptile with four taloned legs and a powerful maw set at the end of a long, flexible neck. Useful as mounts.

• Esper - A parasitic creature which feeds off of the bio-electric life energy of living beings. After subduing a victim, it drains that person's memories and energy, sometimes feeding until the host dies, at which point it too rises as an Esper, hungry for life. Espers resemble their host bodies in most ways, save that their eyes seem to glow and their voice sounds far-away and garbled, like static electricity. A victim of an Esper attack will show shallow burns from where the Esper fed.

• Gallows-bird - These huge carrion beasts were once small, harmless scavengers who fed on the hanged criminals swinging from the gibbets, but soon enough outgrew their food supply and began attacking live victims.

• Goarer - Mainly found in Bosemya, these are extremely intelligent, shaggy, yet dangerous beasts which make good mounts or beasts of burden, provided they don't get too angry...

• Green Man - A Green Man is a murderous embodiment of the planet Gaeis which seeks to infiltrate civilized areas and assassinate important or powerful beings. They dress in clothing which easily conceals the fact that they are a writhing mass of vines, thorns and vegetation. Often they will kill a being and wear its skin in disguise.

• Griff - Carnivorous, foul-tempered with a leonine body which is covered in scales, a tail and an eagle or falcon head which is adorned with a mane and mohawk-like crest in the males of the species.

• Helmyr - Hideous aberrations of life, Helmyr were once proud knights. Now, their mouths and eye sockets are full of jagged teeth and their three eyes are found in their hands and neck. Helmyr hate all forms of life, stalking and murdering anyone they can isolate or overwhelm. They still wear the ancient armor and swords of their former lives.

• Ice Worm -

• Kite -

• Kraken - An underwater terror resembling an octopus or squid with ten venomous tentacles.

• Lindorm - Long, serpentine, wingless Drakes which instead have eight legs to help propel it quickly over the land.

• Merfolk - Serpentine creatures with vaguely humanoid bodies which swim about under the seas and desire the riches of surface beings.

• Mournhound - Large black dogs whose mournful cry is rumored to chill or still the heart of any being who hears it.

• Reptis - Huge constricting snake with a catlike face and frills near the ears. Repti secrete a mucus which burns the skin and poisons the blood.

• Rorsinal - Large bearlike creatures with a long, barbed tongue, capable of ensnaring a human-sized meal.

• Scrat - Rodents of an unusual size covered in razor-sharp spines.

• Sere-tree - Sere-trees are the sentient embodiment of the extreme defensive aspect of the planet Gaeis. Actually a malevolent, free-roaming spirit, a Sere can take possession of any tree and cause it to lash about with their stout branches and trip and grapple their opponents with flailing roots. The only way to destroy a Sere is to kill the tree it is possessing.

Sere-trees are sometimes found in whole groves.

• Shellbacked Ogon - Resembling apes with chitinous plates protecting their back. Capable of rolling up like a bug to protect themselves from harm.

• Sleipnir - Extremely intelligent, six-legged horses capable of slight levitation, enabling them to traverse even the toughest terrain and hazards without danger. The gaze of a Sleipnir is said to cause such fear that their enemies stand rooted to the spot.

• Sticker - Small frogs with extremely potent secreted adhesive which jump onto their victims and drain blood through a serrated sucker-mouth.

• Stone Prince - Animated statues, originally created by the Trowls, powerful in their eternal beauty and destructive power, who roam the mountains and monitor the comings and goings of other beings.

• Titan - A race of giant, thirty-foot humans from an island far, far to the west.

• Vampyre - A winged demonic beast with a face, set of horns, and clawed hands made of bone-like plates which make it particularly resilient to attack. The vampyre feeds on the meat, blood and gore of other beings.

• Wardrone - Mechanical soldiers, ranging in size from very small to colossal. They are primarily humanoid in appearance, although depending on function, they can be vastly different and outfitted with any number of tools, weapons, and implements.

• Watchbirds - Small, bat-winged animals resembled a flying eye-ball with a fleshy body, many tiny, clawed feet, and a whip-like tail. Watchbirds are the pilferers of the strange animal world of Gaeis, stealing junk and jewels alike. If they spy an item they are fond of, they will follow the owner for leagues in a bid to seize it. If agitated, or prevented from obtaining a prize item, they will attack, using their claws and tail. They sometimes attack in packs, but often squabble over the spoils. Watchbirds feed on bugs and are often domesticated.

• Weren - Weren are powerful, violent animals who can assume a human shape in order to cause havoc and disorder in the human world. Their human form takes on features which are still vaguely reminiscent of an animal: pig-nose, beak-like nose, long nails, large canines, pointed ears, buck-teeth, etc.
