In a 3.5/Pathfinder hybrid campaign I ran there was an awakened weasel with 13 levels in ninja. Also a cat with 13 levels of warmage.


Snakes! Why did it have to be snakes!

Seriously though, nothing really. Are their things that makes me nauseated... sure, but nothing in this game scares me. Its just a game after all.

How fast a nobody can get to 15+ level (with Mythic ranks in some cases).

Otherwise, Black Magga

A GM asking for a perception check and/or a will save...
...and then not giving any further information about what just happenend.

Mythic Modify Memory (and enough tiers to use it at maximum effectiveness).

Frightening what kind of abuses you can do with it.

Just read it. It is terrifying

O___O That sounds like the I. Rex from Jurassic World. And therefore, a brick fell out of my pants...

I think the Runelords are among the scariest things on Golarion, but ESPECIALLY Sorshen. Just reading the story of her runesword, describing her nonchalantly plunging the sword through the chest of her least favorite concubine and then getting the others to kill each other over it solely for her favor? WITHOUT the powerful enchantment magic she had at her disposal? That's a scary, scary person. Mind control, whether magic or mundane, has ALWAYS freaked me out, and on Golarion, no one was better at it than Sorshen...*shudder*

Veiled Masters.

Because any course of action anyone undertakes could just be the lynchpin in their masterplan to put all other beings firmly under their heel

No love for the Drakainia, MYTHIC CR25 impregnating tentacle rape monster?


Thanks for reminding me of one of most disappointing creatures from B4.

Silver Crusade

They're a pretty horrific villain, not sure how they're disappointing.


It's still Tammy.

Silver Crusade

... I'm not a dwarf though...


Tammy is more then a one nemesis gal, she's complicated.

What are the Veiled Masters?


Inner Sea Bestiary, like Aboleth but more powerful, like double the CR I believe.

Just the idea of what it does to it's targets... Nightmare fuel.

The poison of a Chernobue Qlippoth.

Ah, thanks. If they're on d20pfsrd I'll check them out.


Yep. Scary.

A party of mythic, bored, sadistically mischievous murderhobos that have long since stopped paying attention to the plot and decided to have their own fun.

We are talking a group of PCs that makes certain ogre families take pause and retch in horror. We're talking a group of PCs with plans so dark that horrors from the dark tapestry will either take notes, or think twice about any invasion plans (that planet.....is not worth the trouble).

Because they're not really worthy of that CR 25/MR 10 status. They're great, but they need buffage to be truly on par with those ratings.

Granted, I've done so to MY drakainia, and I've made a creature that was somewhat similar in purpose for the fey called an Unseelie Progenitor.

On topic for myself, fey. The shadowy, terrifying fey that aren't limited by the scope of reality within the material (and most outer) plane(s). Even a demon is still limited to 'real' torture, but a fey can torture you in ways that are literally impossible. A fey can steal your laughter and replace it with tears. A fey can make you literally crap sunshine and rainbows in some horrific manner for the rest of your life. The first world is full of wonders, but it's also the most terrifying nightmare, because unlike the dimension of dreams, where the dreams are from mortals, the first world is a dimension of unreality where the laws of nature and physics say 'nooope, nothin' doin', you're on your own you poor, pitiful sap you'.

I've never ran endgame stuff so I don't know how it stacks up with other creatures but that doesn't diminish how terrifying the creature and its MO is.


It's not the creatures power level, it is the fact the creature should have been some human/dragon/plus other creature traits Echidna like monster that could give birth/spawn other monsters such as any monstrous humanoid or magical beast it wanted plus maybe a template and/or mythic ranks added to her children. It was supposed to be the mother of monsters not a rape monster.

Uh...it can do that. Large or smaller creatures up to CR 21. As many as it likes over long periods (since that's a per-day limitation).

The 'impregnation' thing, while messed up, is a side-line.
