Agreed.

I wouldn't mind an additional plant-type PC (Ghorans are pretty great, to be sure, but a lower-powered one for those who feel they're a bit strong).

Oh, I'd like a rabbit people with high movement, something that can be made into a character that really zips around the battlefield.

Another alien/distant worlds species would be good.

I think that the Hell's Vengeance AP has several new Proteans... but don't quote me on this one ^^;


Davia D, I would also like races like those as well. Gold Sovereign I would also love a medium size fairy race.

It does (and I assume those will be in 6), I mean, more beyond that ^^


This is just my personal preferences and obsession with numerical equality going but... in the books (Campaign setting, Adventure Paths, and Hardcovers) there are a little under 200 Aberrations, whereas the Outsiders have 613 representative creatures (within about 3 or 4 above or below). While I do love getting new members of underrepresented fiend categories, I must stress this, other types deserve a chance to grow to the numerical magnificence of Outsiders. Just think of all the New and interesting Aberrations, Constructs, Fey, Magical beasts, Oozes, Plants, Undead, Vermin, etc. we could have if we got into numerical equality.

On a separate note, While I dislike "True Dragons", I have no problems with other types of Dragons. After hearing a long and drawn out discussion about Linnorms, I am Fairly Certain that We need Loch Linnorms, as Lochs are not Fjords, Gares, or Tarns.

alright, with that said, I am staying off of this particular discussion until I have my copy of B6.
I may or may not post on other things, sporadically between that time, but no more wishes/rants about numerical equality until then (after that book is Out I will write a big huge list that may or may not be annoying, so spoilers. I will be looking at my personal list, and cross-referencing it with existing pathfinder monsters, point out if I missed one and put an already made Pathfinder beastie in, though)
(Edit: I will be including the name of the author the creature belongs to in the event that it belongs to an author, or in the case that an author mentions it briefly, and if it was written by an author whose copyright status is contested, will be looking up the copyright status to better improve the Weird Fiction Section)

Of the types you listed, I think Aberrations (Since they're by nature diverse) Magical Beasts (Since that's a catch-all group for animal-like monsters with any kind of power), Constructs (Since I imagine in-universe inventing new construct types shouldn't be that difficult for an experienced wizard, so they are probably exceptionally diverse. Plus we've barely scratched the surface of potential diversity amongst robots.), and Fey (There are thousands of different types all over world mythology, and that's not even counting original concepts) would have the potential to be as diverse as Outsiders. I honestly think we have enough human-based undead, but undead based on things other than humans would add a lot more potential for diversity. In terms of plants, I would primarily be interested in more "Plantimals," or plants that have the shape of either an animal or humanoid. Vermin have plenty of diversity in the real world, and if we throw in original types that would add to them greatly. I'm actually okay with oozes being either the least or second least (I forget) numerous type. Honestly, there's only so much interesting stuff that can be done with a shapeless blob of goo. I definitely understand why Outsiders are the most diverse, however. The Great Beyond is a pretty expansive place.


1 person marked this as a favorite.

But Demon Lord, what about plants that lure people into pits by sounding like wounded animals or Lost children?
If we run out of shapeless blobs to make, there are always protoplasmic entities, Slime Molds, Mucus-like creatures, and an infinite array of Giant bacteria and Viruses to Consider.)
I have issues with the one thing that has less than oozes, Vermin. There are an estimated 7 billion life-forms on the planet earth, a large percent of that is typically excepted as being spineless.
Sorry, I lied, Wannabe Demon Lord Coaxed me Out of Hiding *twiddles fingers in shame*


Well, if we have enough good, original, ideas for Plants and Oozes, then, by all means, we should include them. A lot of oozes that have been requested and appeared lately have just fallen under the category of "ball of muck that wields an energy type," and have thus been getting a tad repetitive. But what you mentioned all sound like they have good potential for diversity. Particular giant microbes. I'll bet some interesting stuff could be utilised in that regard.
And I totally agree about the vermin. Even if we're limiting them to just giant versions of real-world creatures, there's an enormous number of options. We haven't even covered all of the basic arthropod types, and there are so many kinds of freaky mollusks, cnidarians, echinoderms, worms, etc. that would make great monsters. Hmm. Giant nudibranchs might be interesting. On top of that, there's tons of prehistoric invertebrates that would be quite interesting, including but not limited to the Cambrian biota. And then there's the fact that a number of different variants of existing types were listed in the bestiaries but never statted up.

Oh, and I'm looking forward to your list. It sounds like you have a number of interesting ideas I may not have considered. So no, it won't be annoying. Enjoy your hiding.


I like most of those ideas Wannabe Demon Lord, but I am still waiting for giant pitcher plants and giant sundews. I like plant creatures but I am sick of molds and fungus.

I am sick of many outsider groups but I still want more stuff for oni, azura, rakshasa, and all the non-evil outsider groups

Actually I have listed a lot of ideas for oozes on both the B6's and this wish list.


Outsiders do have an advantage in being from *many* planes, I wouldn't expect most types to compete- Fey are just from the First World after all.

Or in out of universe terms, outsiders come from myths, prior editions, and just made up. That's a lot of sources.


I would like to see a lot more creature types from the different planes then just outsiders.

Oh yea, I just realized there was ambiguity in my phrasing:

We have Proteans, it's the Protean Lords we don't have any of.

Some protean lords would be nice.

This lovely fellow. We need one, a kindly NG Wolfman creature that helps the poor and is always mistaken for a werewolf.


Wulvers would be quite cool. It would be particularly interesting to have them be some kind of NG wolf-fey.

Ohh what about as a Playable fey race that is usually NG?


Why not LG, it is the only alignment that hasn't been used for a fey creature.

Multiple protean lords have been named and described, but finally having some of them given full write ups and stats would indeed be awesome. Obviously I'm biased on this matter. :)


I would love to see stats for the protean lords as well.

True, we know a little in the article in 'End of Eternity'.

And I remember they killed one of the prior Daemon Horsemen (which, granted, did *not* turn out well for them). But, I need a lot more before I'm satisfied!

Or not even 'satisfied' since I'd still want more but it'd up my happy level ^^

Did the Chorus of Malignant Symmetry kill Yrsinius the Horseman of Pestilence? Good question. The daemons might not know themselves what actually went down, but they certainly took action. But it's sort of like stabbing the ocean in the end. You might feel better, if exhausted, but the ocean is still there and by comparison it's infinite (and the Maelstrom compared to a very much discrete Abaddon is literally infinite).

Little bits of protean lore show up whenever I can feasibly add some in and it makes sense, even in things that aren't about the proteans.


Linnorms!!!

Oh and proteans I guess.


What books have the most info about the proteans and the maelstrom in general?


2 people marked this as a favorite.

I'm getting Arshea and other, lesser demigods in B6, so I'm pretty satisfied. I'm a terrible Buddhist, however, so I'm always wanting more. Lesse...

• Youkai, specifically the ones that've made an appearance in Touhou. I wanna stat up Satori and Kyouko, damnit. (And then there's the enenra...)

• Robots. You hippies* may not like'em, but you'll still pay to see Legolas destroy an annihilator.

*(I apologize to anyone I've offended. Please don't delete this, Chris.)

• Creatures from non-western myth, because representation matters.

• Sexy male anything!

• Good-aligned monsters.

The Great Beyond for the Maelstron, plus an article in the adventure path book 'End of Eternity' in the legacy of fire path.


Eldest, protean lords, sexy male anything, unique dragons

Dems my wish list :P


Pathfinder Adventure Path, Lost Omens, Starfinder Adventure Path, Starfinder Roleplaying Game Subscriber

More creatures from the legends of non-European and non-East Asian cultures. We already have a decent assortment, but... I wantz moar.

More creatures from oddball ecosystems like the Darklands or the Mana Wastes.

More Great Old Ones.

More robots- and more different stylistic "takes" on robots.

More templates- my old saw about a template for converting a Changeling with class levels into the right sort of Hag, for example.

I'd like the Charau-Ka to make the jump into a formal Bestiary entry. It's kind of weird that they haven't yet.

More urban-environment Fey.


In Bestiary 5 we have the Caligni, that is the 0HD version of the Dark Folks.

I would love seeing 0HD versions for Thriaes, Formians, Satyrs and maybe even Dryads.


True dragons for the outer planes not covered in B6 (with a second one for the Abyss).


Because the inclusion of the Ojancanu and Anjana in the recent AP got me thinking about Spain's monsters, and because MMCJawa said he hadn't heard of them before (so he at least might find this useful), I'm posting a large list of Spanish beasties here for you guys to enjoy. This is not my list, (credit goes to usua on DeviantArt) by I have researched a few of these beings and they seem to be legit. It is fairly disorganized, however, but I think sense can be made of most of it.

Spanish Creatures:

TRASGU 1
Height: (M) 1'6 Feet , (F) 1'5 Feet
Weight: (M) 7 Pounds , (F) 6.3 Pounds
The trasgu or trasno is the Asturian equivalent of the leprechaun, a mischievous domestic creature who causes minor annoyance and disorder but who ultimately is relatively harmless. In Asturian tradition he is described as wearing a red cap, and curiously, as having a hole through his left hand. The trasgu disrupts the rhythms of household and work life by stealing small objects such as keys, moving furniture during the night, and generally making a nuisance of himself. In some places it is told that the trasgu can be domesticated, after which he will perform chores around the house until he is released from servitude. This aspect of the Celtic tradition has survived in J.K. Rowling’s house elves, who are bound to serve the households of wizards until they are presented with an item of clothing to wear. Anyone who remembers Dobby the house elf from the Harry Potter books or movies will be familiar with this variant tradition. The trasgu, like the Gremlin from Anglo tradition, is a metaphor for the normal disorder that invades our lives, a reminder that despite our best efforts, some things will never be completely organized or regularized. They are margin of error incarnate. Appropriately, when young children create mischief their elders scold them calling them pequeñus tragsus. This comparison makes a lot of sense when we take into account the trasgu‘s behavior. He is annoying to the point of enraging, but ultimately benevolent, and even lovable. In one tradition, a local family is so fed up with the shenanigans of their house’s trasgu that they pack up and leave. Once their cart is packed up and ready to pull away, the trasgu pops his head from under the bundles and says: ya que vais tous, de casa mudada, tamién múdome you, cula mióu gorra culurada, or in English since you’re all moving away from this house, I’m moving too, with my little red hat!

He is a cave-dwelling spirit who adopts the form of a young red bull, but being a shapeshifter, sometimes takes the shape of a man. At night, more so in stormy weather, he arises from the hollow which is his lair. He attacks criminals and other malevolent people. He also protects people by making them stay home when danger is near.
He is theorized to be a representative of the goddess Mari, or may be an enforcer of her will, punishing people who cheat her. Another name for him is Aatxegorri which means "young red bull". It is believed Aatxe inhabited caves and hollows; in many (Isturits, Sare, Errenteria, among others) engravings and paintings depicting aurochs, bulls, and oxen have been found; which implies that this Basque myth has its origins in the Paleolithic.

He immediately put them to work: repair the fence, prepare the land, milk the cows, redo the ceiling... in few minutes the galtzagorriak had done all the jobs and asked again "what do we do now, what do we do now?". The peasant ordered them to do many other things and again the job was done in minutes. But the galtzagorriak kept asking what to do. The more than pleased peasant had to say: "nothing".

It was closed for many years due to darkness and humidity they went out a few flakes around the body and gradually underwent a metamorphosis that turned into a crocodile.

In one myth Sugaar seduces a Scottish princess in the village of Mundaka to father the mythical first Lord of Biscay, Jaun Zuria. This legend is believed to be a fabrication made to legitimize the Lordship of Biscay as a separate state from Navarre, because there is no historical account of such a lord. Only the fact that the delegates of Mundaka were attributed with the formal privilege of being the first to vote in the Biltzar (Parliament) of the province may look as unlikely indication of the partial veracity of this legend.

MULADONA 31
In Catalan mythology a Muladona or Donamula (mule-woman or woman-mule in Catalan) is a female mule with a human woman's head. Legend has it that a young woman was cursed by the townspeople for being irreverent and irreligious and the curse turned her into a mule. She is said to wander the mountains, especially at night, joining mule trains. It is thought that the mules are frightened by her presence and stampede and they may even fall into ravines and die.
The Muladona looks like a mule but it is a mixture of human and animal, its mane is like a woman’s hair and its face, while still appearing to be like that of an animal, is obviously human.

According to the legend, the creature was created by God as a punishment for the sins committed by the residents of Ahigal and is usually described as a beast with the hindquarters of a horse, the forequarters of a bull and a wild boar's head with a long and sharp horn in the front.
Lots of humans and animals became victims of the Escornau, but the beast had a special interest for the women. The legend says that when a man or an animal were attacked and killed by the escornau the creature left their bodies in the ground but, when the victim was a woman, the beast used its horn to skewer her body and then proceeded to walk around with it like a trophy.
The people of Ahigal tried to kill the beast in multiple occasions but they hadn't achieved anything, the skin of the beast was so hard that neither bullets nor the arrows were able to pass through it. Finally they realised that only God was able to stop the Escornau and they began to pray for mercy and organised processions to show their remorse.
At one of those processions was when, at the moment when the beast was going to attack some women present at the ceremony, God paralyzed the Escornau and inflated it until the animal exploded, the only remains of the creature that the explosion left was its horn which was kept as a relic on the hermitage of Ahigal, but now it's been lost for years and nobody knows where can it be.

True dragons for the outer planes not covered in B6 (with a second one for the Abyss).

Unfortunately, Mr. Jacobs already said that the True dragons will always come in groups of five. Given that the true dragons in B6 are called "Planar Dragons", I'm sure we are going to see dragons that will cover all the main planes in the outer sphere.

That said, what concept would you like to see for the True Dragons of B7?

I want to see constructed dragons. Dragons created using alchemy, biotechnology or something close to that. Just like the Inevitable, they would simple have some construct traits?

Or maybe humanoid like true dragons. I don't know... I'm out of good ideas for true dragons today...

Next True Dragon ideas...

Gems(diamond, emerald, ruby, sapphire, and pearl)

Materials(bone, metal, stone, shell, and wood)

Universal concepts(light, sound, energy, mass, and gravity)

Natural concepts(life, death, nature, spirit, and body/mind)

Tech based concepts(alchemical, bio-mechanical, digital, robotic/cybernetic, and primitive/rust)


1 person marked this as a favorite.

How about Kinetic, Mesmer, Spirit, Psychic and Medium? Y'know, dragons with special abilities based on the Kineticist, Mesmerist, Spiritualist, Psychic and Medium classes, respectively?

Making fun of proliferation of dragon types in D&D is so 1978.


1 person marked this as a favorite.

It would also be nice to have dragon species unique to each of the planets in the Golarion solar system. Basically one from Akiton, one from Castrovel, one from Verces, etc. Obviously these wouldn't be true dragons since there is a lot more then 5 planets.


1 person marked this as a favorite.

I was thinking a planet type thing.

Or maybe dragons based on celestial bodies (might be the wrong term) so like meteor dragon and planet dragons. Although Solar and Luna dragons kinda undermine this.

Also aren't force and prismatic dragons a thing pathfinder is yet to address.


1 person marked this as a favorite.

I doubt we will ever see force and prismatic dragons but you never know.

Speaking of celestial bodies, I would love a group of creatures based on the zodiac.


1 person marked this as a favorite.

Any particular reason for those doubts?
I imagine the group of 5 thing is a problem.


1 person marked this as a favorite.

I, of course, would like to see a group of dragons based on North American Horned Serpents, but I'm not sure if it would be better to make them a group of true dragons like the Imperial Dragons were, or something more akin to Linnorms and Azis.

Aren't both the Force and Prismatic Dragons properties of WotC?

Also... they were epic dragons... a.k.a. unusable in 99% of games :P

How about something truly vile, evil, and despicable, that we all can hate and won't mind killing. Something that doesn't cause an alignment check when a priest of Sarenrae ambushes it without warning in the middle of morning prayers. Something from the negative material plane that even they want dead. I'm talking lawyers, Republicans, and Democrats - Oh My.


We have plenty of vile, evil, etc., we need more CN and LN.

Lawyers and politicians are underrated.

Heck, I can even think of an AP where heroic lawyering (with the aid of some politicians) plays a huge role!

Agreed. We all want more creatures, expansion/details of creatures in the other continents, new details on planar creatures, etc... However, it might also be interesting to have more organizations, not just monsters, that follow the LN or CN alignments. Neutral style organizations that manipulate good aligned groups/creatures and hire/manipulate evil aligned groups/creatures to accomplish their agendas could also be interesting. Bestiary 7 might not be the best place for this BUT a Bestiary type product with an alignment theme could be interesting. It would be sort of like a large Campaign Setting module but focused on LN/CN organizations and new supporting NPCs and monsters.


"Organizations", do you mean creature groups(proteans, oni, lamia, etc.) or actual organizations like the the Hell Knights?

We could always get lawyer demons and politician demons;)

I liked all the ideas for dragons posted by Dragon78, specially the Gems and Tech dragons, for I have them in my homebrew.

The concepts by JiCi and Durgon are also cool, specially the ones based on the occult classes and the "Meteor Dragon" (I have a meteor dragon in my setting, but he isn't a true dragon; more like a powerful dragon akin to the Shen).

Wannabe Demon Lord brought up an idea that I have been hoping to see for a long time now. NEW DRAGON CATEGORIES. Like Linnorms and Azis, they wouldn't be limited to five, so we could probably insert concepts like Arcane dragons for all the arcane schools and the dragons from each planet as well. I have been designing the Celestial Wyrms based on the illustrations I will be mentioning in the post bellow this one.

But, the concept I liked the must was the one by Davia D, the powerful and elegant Hat Dragons (totally a joke). Apsu's Herald wears spectacles, than why not wearing a hat?

OBS: Contract Devils are already a perfect lawyer creature representation. I mean, look at Hell Rebels and Mephistopheles himself.

Than, Dragon78, I know something WE would LOVE to see in a bestiary. Our zodiac cousins (Art by the same artist that illustrated the esoteric dragons).

You can see this group and the others in this link here. I'm in love with this dragons, as they are so alive and beautifully illustrated. My favorite are the ones from 2014 and 2016. I have been trying to stat them up for my homebrew... For a long time now... I call them Celestial Wyrms, as in celestial bodies and great wyrm dragons. They wouldn't fit as true dragons, but in a new dragon category of their own. All of them are CR 21-25.
