Undead already have a revisited book of their own (time for revisited 2?), and were featured in other revisited books (like Classic Horrors).


Yeah we know that but undead unleashed is an unleashed book not a revisited book.

I would be disappointed to not see a revisited this year.

I agree I would love a Distant Worlds Bestiary though I would settle for a Inner Sea Bestiary 2.

Undead Unleashed is a "unleashed" book not a "revisited" book;) Though I would love to see a Kaiju Unleashed or Revisited book.

Those kaiju books would make me a happy camper.

If that Kaiju Unleashed book stats ALL of the remaining Kaijus, that'll be an instant buy... and they could also have that Kaiju Template they wanted to add in B3, but couldn't because the template was like 6 pages long or something.


Yeah the Kaiju Unleashed book would be better since we could have stats for like 10+ new Kaiju plus info on there lairs, possible origins, ecology, etc..


oh god kaiju template...could mean kaiju campaign for my gonzo dming style.


Erchitu

Looks like an interesting white Minotaur-variant and i'm sure they can be cool in many stories.

Searching for brave souls that can end their punishment, or just feeding on cowards. All while being constantly tortured and humilated by little impish demons! (Sounds familiar? Check the 1986 classic movie Labyrinth)

Overal THIS site is home to many interesting creatures and cool pictures, you should check it out!

James Jacob has said that the Kaiju template is completely scrapped. Any future Kaiju will be built from the ground up.

Yeah I remember seeing him say that as well.

I would love to see some tiny to medium size plant creatures that can fly, maybe with modified leaves that act like insect/humming bird wings, maybe one that fills itself with helium, or some that can with supernatural ability.

Great rideable winged cats!

A winged template would be nice for that one.


1 person marked this as a favorite.

A Lizard merged with a plant, a dragon that's always on fire, and a turtle that stores water and shoots it out at high pressures.

Done Pathfinder Style, of course.

Statues that don't move, but hop around and try to crush you. Maybe with a ranged attack.

A gestalt monster that is actually three or four creatures symbiotically attached to each other (like a Portuguese Man O' War, but not necessarily in that same form).

Symbiotes and Parasites in general.

illithids
and no i dont care about copyright by WoTC
i just want illithids


It dwells in the dark
It kills for a lark
Its bite is much much
worse than its bark
It's Goblin Shark!


I would like some more goblin themed monsters since we have the Goblin snake and goblin dog(rat).

I also like the troll hound so another troll themed pet would be cool as well.

While were at it how about more racial "pets" based on other races as well such as drow, deurgar, orcs, elves, dwarves, etc. Some would be animals, some magical beast, and a few aberrations.

A monster that can create a electro-magnatic field or some similar ability to destroy creatures with the robot subtype or all construct creatures.

A monster with a constant anti-magic field.

A monster with a constant anti-tech field.

A crystalline creature that deflects/reflects rays, magic missiles and is immune to prismatic spells/effects.

Too many absolutes for my taste.

Specifically, ones designed to force people to fight them a certain way (in this case, using Fighters/Barbarians.

Because ones that require Spellcasters are inexistent?


Are they?

I mean, maybe it's just because it's all a list of really basic requests rather than a full monster statblock, but I didn't notice anything overtly caster-only in the Bestiaries.

Not at higher levels/CR if the party is well equipped, but there are some that require assistance from spellcasters in some ways.


Well swarms require magic/alchemical items to harm them and there is only one magic item I can think of that lets a physical fighter harm them. There are also some oozes that are hard to harm without magic.

Incorporal creatures?


Yeah, incorporeal creatures are impossible to hurt without magic or magic weapons.

Ashinaga & tenaga are two awesome and strange yokai from Japanese Mythology.

The Ashinaga have very long legs (20 feet or so) and the Tenaga have even longer arms. Ashinaga have very short arms tho and the Tenaga have small legs so they need eachother to fight at maximum.

The long arms and legs of these creatures are often full of sharp knives and other weapons/decorations to aid them in battle.

They love to eat magical fish monsters above all, especially when the fish are good natured and intelligent.

I want more fairytale monsters! All evil of course. >:-D


I just hit the MOTHERLOAD of Asian monsters. Massive number of them. Unfortunatley I'm going to be out of town for the next couple days, but when I get back...


There is only ONE CREATURE I want to see in the Bestiary 5......

A damn LARGE BEAR for an animal companion!!!


I remember one of the APs had stats for Polar Bears but I don't remember if they gave them animal companion stats.

That's not a Bestiary problem...

That's kinda boring if that's all you want is a real world Animal-Planet critter that can fight for you? :-p

It will need a cool name but yes.


:-( The Queen is very sad...

Delgeth is in Pathfinder now, but its a freaking ELK, its not a ANTILOPE/PRONGHORN like its suppose to be...

There are like 2 Elk like monsters in mythology, the water elk Paiyuk from native american mythology and the even cooler Sianach from Irish mythology ...

There is only 1 Pronghorn-like monster in ALL mythology and that's the Delgeth, now pathfinder turned it into a Elk monster.

Which not only eliminates both the Paiyuk and Sianach in future bestiaries, it also eliminates the pronghorn version of the Delgeth.

So my Bestiary 5 wish = forget about the Stag/Elk version of the Delgeth and turn that thing into Paiyuk or Sianach with green fire instead of red, while creating a new Pronghorn-Delgeth as well.

Also the Delgeth as Neutral creature doesn't make sense, its one of the most evil creatures from Native American mythology...

While i like and appriciate mixing stuff with real mythology creatures, I don't like it when the changes kill other possibilities, like turning rare-animals (pronghorn) into creatures there are other mythological versions off (Elk)


And while the Blemmyes and Acephali are fun, I hope the Xing Tian makes it into the Bestiary 5.

Reason 1: It begins with the letter X and not much creatures begin with the letter X, many creatures begin with B and even more with A.

Reason 2: Xing Tian are said to wear armor, which makes them cooler than the other two, maybe create the Blemmyes as an armorless version of the Xing Tian.

Reason 3: They are from Chinese mythology, and not all too much creatures come from Chinese Mythology, mostly from Japanese.

I also really love the name Xing Tian.

Hope to see them in Bestiary 5, my Dullahans could use some cool headless minions that hold skull shields and skull weapons.

the race may simply be known with different names in different regions, with Xing Tian as the Dragon Empires name(considering the original myth, it may also be the name of their god/mythic ancestor) and blemmyes/anthropophagi elsewhere. for peculiar equipment they may wear armor in the form of 'breastplate-masks'.

if you like chinese monsters, then you should look for the Shan Hai Jing('Masterpiece of the Mountains and the Seas'), an ancient chinese text that describes mythological locations and the monsters/spirits inhabiting them, complete with peculiar characteristics(it's pretty much the ancient chinese version of the D&D Monster Manual). among other things it describes two weird races, one has freakishly long arms and the other freakishly long legs, that live in a symbiotic relationship. also, it features shark mermaids.

also, i want to see a Xing Tian Pennanggalan!


The Long legs and long Arms folk are also from Japanese mythology?

I posted them in this topic earlier.

I agree with your other points.


I would like a species of outsider based around night hags. they seem nitchy and i think there could be more to them than just a single creature.


The skinless Boo Hag would make a cool Night Hag variant!!


Personally I would have made the night hag a monstrous humanoid with the extraplanar subtype and all hags would get a hag subtype.


I would personally like to see a Malebranche make an appearance. They've already been described in several books as 'evolved' versions of horned devils with near God-like power, but I would love to see what one actually looks like and what it can actually do.


Ly Erg
- Irish Mythology
- Medium Fey
- Neutral Evil or Chaotic Evil

Ly Ergs are fey of war, they challenge every other creature into a spar battle, but even if you win the outcome will be bad as you are cursed, mortal wounded or you will die by an accident a couple days after you fought the Ly Erg, the only way to escape this curse is to decline the battle with the Ly Erg as winning isn't an option.

If you challenge them into battle first or just attack them the curse doesn't hold its effect, it only works when the Ly Erg challenges the victim first.

Ly Ergs look like elven males entirely dressed in war armor (much like the D&D Ragewalker)
But while their left arm is normal, their right arm is huge, bloody red and deformed into a mutant arm (much like the Yagnoloth from D&D) it is always dripping with unnatural blood.
Some say the blood dripping from the arm is from the victims that suffer from their curse. This is possible however as the victims are often found without blood.

Ly Ergs are often found in evil fey armies, leading the armies or being some type of overseer, overlord or warlord.

They also often lend their serves for hire for gold or something more sinister.


I ask for Xvarts, the evil smurfs. They were printed in Dragon when it was being written by Paizo so it is well within your power to bring it over. Good job overall. Pathfinder is becoming my fav system to date.

Everything introduced in Dragon is copyright WoTC (unless put in the SRD), so Paizo can't use them.


Smurf like creatures, evil or otherwise, would be cool.


lol, are we seriously talking about smurfs in pathfinder? Good luck tho, if they even find horrid creatures with acid tongue to funny to introduce, I give smurfs zero% chance.

(please give me vanity smurf avatar!)


Quote:
Oh god Kaiju template...could mean kaiju campaign for my gonzo dming style.

I really wish people would stop asking for a Kaiju template. The fine folks at Paizo have repeatedly said that each Kaiju is UNIQUE (aka deserving it's own stat block and back story). If you want an ordinary monster to be like a Kaiju then try using some other templates (half-dragon, giant, advanced, or even a mythic template or two).


I just want more Kaiju:)


Metagamingwise, I think we need more monsters that are immume to magic. Imagine a kaiju that does not care about fireball and lightning bolts and can't be kill by magic. It will take some real tactics to take one down.

DR xy/- instead of DR xy/Epic?


I wished people stopped asking for stuff they are getting anyway, like more Kaiju is obvious...
