I thought a thread for monsters that people have made might be fun.
My first offerings are stolen from/Inspired by one of the DLC campaigns of Orcs Must Die 2 (one of my favourite computer games)
Volcanic Hulk
(Solitary, large, magical, construct) 24 hp, 4 armour
Red-hot fists of stone (d10+2, close, reach, forceful, messy, 1 piercing)
Some would call this an elemental, but it's form is not pure enough for that to truly be the case. Made by some wizard or otherworldly power, the Volcanic Hulk is a lumbering beast of rock, given life by trapped fire spirits.
Instinct: to crush and burn
Moves:
-lumber forward without pause
-pound an obstacle to pieces
-on death, to split into a swarm of flamelings
Flamelings
(horde, small, magical, amorphous) 10 hp, 1 armour
Flaming death throes (b[2d6]+2, close)
Spirits of fire, Flamelings seek only to consume - themselves, and everything around them.
Instinct: to burn
Moves:
-live fast
-die young
-leave the flaming corpses of their victims
