Okay I'll have to give it to that one, I do apparently have a smug personality to go along with it, what can I say, it comes from being inherently superior to all of you.

Yeah but when do we get the god who's animal is the platypus, that's the important question.

Hail the deity, Attipus
Whose symbol is the wise platypus
Much more sublime
Than the Lord of Felines,
With his mangy, flea-ridden fatty puss.

Oh believe me I know, I actually had Gogmurt become the first goblin snake in my campaign. The players watched after killing him as his head and spine ripped free from his body and slithered off into the woods. (In my game they left gogmurt as the only living member of his tribe, that included slaughtering the concubines and children, so gogmurt sold his being to devils to release malfeshnekor they party then had to fight Malfi and Gogmurt together, but they saw that Gogmurt had been mutilating himself with magical runes and so when they killed him his head escaped and now they have a theory that he is the reason for the new dead animals killed by a frightening new form of venom that Pillbug can't identify.

Ha! Awesome.

But 27 isn't out yet! What type of naga is it? A shadow naga?

Oh. Oops. Well. Consider that a big old tease then :P

And no, its not a shadow naga.

Prepare to be terrified.

Will do the same (my group is just outside his throne room right now).

That might be the basis of my disrespect for the bill. I do indeed find ducks to be silly and goofy.

Wait you approved the goblin snake, but duck billed creatures you find too silly?

I liked the goblin snake, what's wrong with it?

absolutely nothing, lets go ahead and add the orc snake, the elf snake, the gnome snake, the kobold snake, the kenku snake, and the thri-kreen snake. But not the duck snake, that'd be silly

Now, you're silly. Only goblins get snakes. Orcs get wolverines, elves get cats, gnomes get badgers, kobolds get rats (no, wait, that's not right: kobolds ARE rats), kenku get cockatiels, and thri-kreens get hamsters.

Have you even played D&D before 3.5, or ever read any myth???

Can we please get this thread back to what it's supposed to be about?

That is ten tons of awesome...with a duck bill.

Mairkurion {tm} (Pathfinder Adventure Path Subscriber), Wed, Nov 4, 2009, 12:57 PM

I thought T-Rexs were thought to weigh 6-8 tons. Would a bill add that much weight?

And that silliness and goofiness can actually be, in itself, a tragedy.

Case in point

Gogmurt was the druid, Ripnugget was the chieftan, but nonetheless I'm glad you liked my idea, maybe I should consider actually trying to write a pathfinder scenario one of these days :)

lastknightleft, Thu, Nov 5, 2009, 08:36 AM

Just thought I'd share more reasons why silly should never be a reason a monster doesn't exist :)

I'd like to add that only one of these creatures is stated up in pathfinder (well two if you count dingo as a dog or wolf), and two of them are duck billed. (well a swan doesn't technically have a duck bill, but pretty damn close)

AAAAAAAAAHHH!! The RATS! The duck billed rats in the walls!

Epic Meepo (RPG Superstar 2009 Top 16), Thu, Nov 5, 2009, 11:16 AM

Does a swanmay count as a duck-billed monster?

They're relatively non-goofy, even if they do shapechange into swans.

Ah yes, Shame on me ! And I even reread the whole module less than one week ago ...

But Hey, I like it the idea that it comes from the goblin KING (and the goblin druid is already dead anyways ... they all made their saves vs Entangle, then the druid in the party thrashed Gogmurt ...)
