In Wells of Darkness I noticed Echidna "The Mother of Monsters" Is Imprisoned In one of the wells. And It states that Harpies shrieks can be heard eminating from her well heralding a new birth. As you know Echidna with her mate Typhon spawned most of the greek monsters, Neamyian Lion,Hydra and so on. A DM could have lotsa fun wih this since Ahazu let's some of her progeny loose, I was going to make up a few creatures she spawned to play with the PC's. Question James Is Echidna getting congingal visits from Typhon, or just creating these herself?

My image was that she was already impregnated with countless children by the unnamed father (presumably Typhon) or fathers. It's just a question of when each individual child is released.
As for the progeny, I would encourage the DM to create unique creatures drawing on any aspect of Greek mythology.

Echidna is on a godly power level so I'd say she could spawn them herself or once impregnated by Typhon could produce new monsters from his godly seed.
You could certainly have fun with this and introduce new monsters into your campaign this way, especially if you allowed a new monster spawned here to get away and produce new young in the PCs world.
Yeah actually I was already guessing she was like a Godly Queen Ant, Inseminated once then giving birth whenever? But I just wanted to make that joke about congigal visits lol. This leaves room for my Imagination to go crazy with Ideas on new creatures and being from the Greek Pantheon makes It more sweet. When "Clash of the Titans" first came out I was always integrating the myths Gods and Goddesses Into my campaigns. I know It's off subject but did anyone hear news about a remake of "Clash of the Titans"?

umm...severe threadjack, sorry.
Yes. comingsoon.net reported (ala Variety) that a new screenwriter was hired in May. Otherwise, nothing new.
