2E Bestiary 3, Classic Monsters Wish List

[Brinebeast]

There is potentially going to be some effort to have 2E Bestiary 3 fill in some of the classic monsters that didn’t make it into 2E Bestiary 1 and Bestiary 2. So with that in mind what classic monsters are you wishing for in 2E Bestiary 3.

Some places to look for inspiration include the 3.0/3.5 SRD and Tome of Horrors, 3.5 Pathfinder Adventure Paths and Modules, and Pathfinder 1E Bestiaries, Adventures, Modules and Setting Books. At the end of 1st Edition there was approximately 3000 monsters in Pathfinder. My wish list is below in alphabetical order.

Some of the monsters on my wish list are from very earlier Pathfinder. I would love to see the lore for these early monsters updated along with the rules so that they fit appropriately in the setting.

[Lanathar]

I can spot several Serpent Skull and Reign of Winter requests in there!

I would like the Aranea unless they have been renamed and I have missed them. But they look quite easy to reskin using one of the higher level Anadi plus a web ability

Blight spawn and some kind of mongrel race to round out Feasts of Ravenmoor

[Nobunyaga]

I'm too new to Pathfinder (got interested just a few months before 2E was released) to really say much on this topic, but as I've just today received Land of the Linnorm Kings there is one monster I really wish came back sooner than later, the Huldra. I was just browsing through the book and the Huldra really caught my eye, cause I love fey and she reminds me of kind of similar monsters in Japanese mythology. Since I know a lot of these stories I instantly had parts of a plot in my mind. But of course one creature isn't enough for an adventure, so I'd basicly wish for anything else that inhabits the Land of the Linnorm Kings and isn't already published yet in 2E on top of Huldras. <:

[Prince Setehrael]

Behemoths
Leviathan
Nightshades
Vilderavn
Vokodlak

[KingTreyIII]

Was looking to start a thread but I found this, so….

Cast Raise Thread!

Tooth fairy monarchs (they came in so late in 1e and their flavor was so cool!)
Agathions (still really peeved that they’re the one “outsider race” that didn’t make it into Bestiary 1)
Nightshades (awesome flavor and the nightwing has been used by Paizo SO MUCH)
Nosferatu/Jiang-shi/Vetala (I WANT MY VAMPIRES! Also, I wanna see what they do with vrykolakas dhampirs, but that might be in the APG).
Lusca (I WANT MY THREE-HEADED SHARK THING!!!)
Galvo (Eel-people. ‘Nuff said)
Heresy devils (I wanna see those bloated fat guys again!)

[Goodham]

We need disenchanters!
Adventurers rest too well at night knowing that blue-furred deer with elephant trunks won't eat their magic items while they're asleep.

[Mechagamera]

I would like Agathions too, but I think it might be a good time to give them a little more distinctive gimmick to go with their distinctive look. Maybe they could be the opposite of daemons (embodiments of types of murder) by being embodiments of ways to save a life.

Something like:

Draconals representing healing magic
Cetaceals representing saving someone from drowning
Leonals representing heroically standing between a victim and danger
etc.
