[net.games.frp] weird monsters

   I even third the motion about weird monsters. And in response to the
article posted by Jeff Bowles I say: Hot Dog!!! I have been waiting to
unleash upon the gaming world my rather obnoxious super-monster known
as a Grimlyl.
   I created Grimlyls about a year or two ago in response to some of my
players developing huge egos. (You see, due to Monty Hall dungeons before
my becoming DM, they had all developed super-characters.) My response to
this was to invent a super-monster based on a bipedal-dragon prototype I
had seen in a movie. Thus, the Grimlyl was born.
   For a taste of him, the Grimlyl has a total of four attacks: 2 normal
and 2 special. This may not seem like much, but he's a tough guy. His main
attribute (or I should say, one main attribute) is that he has numerous
hit points. Anywhere from 120 - 200 to be exact. And Grimlyls have quite
a bit of magic use. Not to mention an interesting habit of devouring 
human flesh as a delicacy.
   Anyone who wants more specifics on the Grimlyl (and other weird
monsters I am creating) should send mail to me. I don't want to post
my children on the Net. That's too public.
   Until then, auf wiedershien!

To all those wonderful people who sent me mail:

     Somehow, my previous posting did not make it to the Net. So here I
go again.
     Anybody who wrote to me and wanted a copy of my weird monster stats,
do not despair. Shortly after sending out few copies, my 'mbox' was
accidentally deleted, resulting in the loss of approximately 15 user's
addresses. So...if you still want a copy of the stats, send me mail and I
will send you the stats. There may be some delay (a week maybe) before I
can get the stats out. One of the people who got them pointed out a
discrepancy in my original draft. I am currently correcting that mistake.
     Best wishes for a happy holiday...
