Monsters

This post includes suggestive art and discussions of seduction and perversion- be warned if you are sensitive to such things.

Inspired by Cults of Zahak , which I highly recommend. by AARONASAURUS Automata refer to autonomous, mobile Constructs that can seemingly act and make decisions on their own. However, any Artificer will tell you this not true. Automata are puppets, they have no life or will of their own. So upon encountering a Golem, most ordinary people would be convinced that they are Automata as well. That would be incorrect as well, however. Golems are not merely complex Constructs

by Chun Lo Often called Phantom Ogres, though they are not related to those gluttonous, childlike monsters. Evil is a metaphysical force, just as Goodness and Virtue have weight. This is a common teaching of the Priests- it is only the uncommon religion that teaches that evil is not real, or that it is simply the absence of goodness. Some even argue that the final judgement in the afterlife is not a judgement, but a simple assessment of the soul. It is the Weight of sin t

source unknown Pursuing immortality has long been a dream of Alchemists.  The elixir of eternal life has proven to be a most tempting prize, leading to many squandering years of life and enormous sums in vain attempts to produce such an elixir.  The Alchemists of Yi Fa, were notorious for this, poisoning themselves with countless failed attempts at eternal life. And while many Alchemists pursue immortality through the Philosopher's Stone, others find the pursuit of such a lof

source unknown Kobolds are small, lizard-like creatures who yap and squeal. They are pathetic and loathsome, the servants of Dragons. They are crafty, but can be fooled by riddles and clever maids and frightened by children. And while dangerous in packs, individually, they are no threat. Or so they say. But like most stories, most of what is said about Kobolds isn't true. The Kobold Creation Myth: Kobolds are hateful creatures. They despise most other species for being t

Ideas borrowed from Runequest and Arnold K . Savage brutes and vicious creatures, Beastman are raiders, pillagers and butchers that haunt the wilderness and the frontier where civilization has not successfully caught on. They are near-mindless in their hatred for civilization, regarding all who seek more than the meagre comforts of Mother Earth as ungrateful ingrates, worthy of only being hunted for sport or used as livestock. by SEVASTIANS Beastman Warrior Number Appearing

by Majorie Davis Giggling, capering, foolish creatures; deprived of fear and drunk on black mirth and base cruelty, the Goblin is foremost among the terrors afflicting the small people of this world. For unlike the lumbering Trolls, tyrannical Giants, ravenous Ogres or any number of other savage beasts, Goblins are as common as poison ivy. They are a dark plague that afflicts the body politic of many civilized lands, growing numerous and potent when the institutions crumble

by WesTalbott 1. Outsiders come from outside our reality Outsiders are immortal creatures that come from outside our reality. They descend from Deep Heaven, or rise from the Astral Sea, depending on your perspective, to meddle with events on our little dirtball. 2. Angels, Demons and Spirits are all names for the same thing Mortals label Outsiders as Angels, Demons or Spirits, but they are all the same type of creature. Anti-Demon weaponry can often kill Angels as well, u

by caiomonteiroart Orcs are savage barbarians who dwell beyond the lands of civilized men. They build nothing, create nothing, naturally living in squalor and poverty. They care for nothing but the simple joys of life: eating, fighting and fornicating. When they need something, they take it from another Orc or force him to make it for them. When another Orc cannot, they enslave someone else to do it for them. Orcs live for violence and glory and to praise their foul Gods
