Feb 15, 2009 21:26:22 So far we have 2 Dragon books and 1 kicking undead book. What other monsters would you like touched upon? I for one would love a book of goblin lore or maybe a Wild Magical Beast expansion. More about Illithids would rock.

Here is the sum up of what we have to far:

Book of Monsterous Races. Include both NPC and PC options for orcs, goblins, and kolbolds.

Fey Masters and Monsters The dangerous Winter Fey, the strange creatures of the Feydark, The Promethians.

Aberrations!!! - Beholders and Illithids need more love.

Masters of Deception - The big book of mimics, cloakers, dopplegangers, and monsters who don't look like what they really are.

Primordials - Infor about the enemies of the gods and their servants.

Drow and the Underdark - We need to see the domain of the Spider Queen and her children.

The Civilized Races - City 'encounters' and mosnters.

Monsters of the Sea - Koa-toa, mermen, monsters of the depths, all the watar based dangers.

Book of Angels, Devils, Elementals, and Demons - Each could be it's own book or mixed in pairs.

Giants - Different flavors from Oni, to Xendrik types, to the classics eh?

Slime, Molds, Oozes, and Jellies - Everything is more fun with JellO! j/k

Feb 15, 2009 21:53:20 Denziens of the sewers. Seriously, the creatures that lurk beneath your homes (in a city enviroment) could be the real terrors. Otyugh, slimes, oozes, carrion crawlers, and any other sewer type critter and variants of such would be really cool. Although possibly not enough for an entire book, it would make one heck of a Dragon article. Hint, hint. Or maybe part of a larger book on urban monsters. All of the monsters that would dwell specifically a city versus caves, woods, or underground.

Perhaps a book on Giantkind. Perhaps including giants (duh), titans, trolls, ogres, ettins and such.

Feb 15, 2009 21:54:52 *sigh* Typo.

But the Fey monster book would be awesome. How about a Primordials one?

Feb 15, 2009 21:58:22 Give us a book (or a dragon article) on the savage races of the world-goblins, orcs, gnolls, bugbears, hobgoblins, ogres etc. I'd especially enjoy it if such a book included some PC material for savage humanoid races along the lines of the rituals and magic items used in Open Grave.

Feb 15, 2009 22:50:32 I'd like to see a far realm/abberations book. Mainly because I like Lovecraftian horror, and Ithilliad are my favorite enemies.

Also, I would like to see what I can only think of as a "Green Bloods" suppliment, though I know that's a refference to another system.
More accurately I'd like to see a PHB with it's races section dedicated to Goblinoids, Orcs, and Kobolds.

Feb 16, 2009 1:02:34 Another Lord of Madness. The Big Book of Giants. Book of swarms? Definitely a savage races book, with lots of variants and pets they use. Also a book of monsters featuring all civilized races. I'd love to see that and I've wanted to since I started DMing back in 3rd ed.

That's a good one! Civilised opponents for all levels (thougho nly a handful for Epic)! Maybe throw in some 'famous' NPCs with better write ups.

Belorin
Feb 16, 2009 3:36:41 Well, how about Primal? A book of spirits and creatures to be summoned or transformed into?
Fey, the creatures of the different Courts?
Creatures of the Elemental Chaos including giants and titans.
Angels and other dwellers of the Astral Sea.
An updated Lords of Madness
A Demonnomicon, Codex of Betrayal and Lords of Chaos.

Feb 16, 2009 10:16:05 I've been wanting a book on giants for so long. And with the MM being short on what I was expecting, I want it even more. Fluff, new (and old) races, whatever I can get. How I long for my frost giants...but at least I know I'm getting them in the MM2.

Feb 16, 2009 17:07:47 The Monstrous Compendium of Crap Monsters.

And I mean that in the British colloquial, not a big book of excrement monsters.

I want to see a big book of the silliest, oddest, and most ludicrous monsters from previous editions.

Giant space hamsters.
Pink Dragons.
Anything that has ever been included in an adventure supplement, Dragon Magazine, or issue of Polyhedron for a laugh.
Rules for space orcs with laser rifles.

I absolutely want a book focusing an Aberrations, the Far Realm, and the Plane of Dreams.

I love the lovecraftian feel of the Far Realm and the creatures who originate from it. Also, I see the Plane of Dreams as having a very "H.P. Lovecraft's Dreamlands" feel to it (which explains it being full of Aberrations).

I'd also like to see some "Old One" descriptions. I don't neccesarily want to see them statted, but I do want descriptions of some of the Old Ones and their cults. I know that we already got the "Wish Upon a Star" article in Dragon #366 (which was nice to see), but I'd really like to see more of them.

All of this. I would subscribe to Dragon (and promptly cancel after DL'ing the pdf) just for this stuff.

I'm fairly sure you can change it yourself; just edit the first post and change the title.
