Name that monster!

Name that Creature!.

I am making a blog showcasing new free pathfinder monsters each week. Every year i'm gonna put together a pdf which I will sell somewhere on the cheap (drivethrough RPG and the like) containing all the monsters from the blog and new ones.

Every now and than i'm going to have a little contest like this where i ask for a name. The person who's name idea i use will get a free copy of the yearly monster PDF.

Anyway here is the first entry.

And extra-planar shark with a swordlike snout and spikes down its back. As it moves through the water its spines vibrate causing sonic damage and confusing prey.


Some scientific-sounding ones using latin:

Magna Spicati Gladius - loud spiked sword(fish)

Pulsum Gladius - vibrating sword(fish)

Then there's the obvious: Planar Swordfish (Quaevis Gladius) or Sword Shark (Gladio Turpis)


1 person marked this as a favorite.

Ach! Hans, run! It's the Scimitark!


Scimitark sounds kinda cool. ;)

Scimitark is funny,but funny is not always the direction you want to take with your monster.

Voidshark or voidhunter might work depending on its extra-planar nature. Cut- or slicefish, too.
