New Monster: Puppymonkeybaby DCC

“A wizard did it.” Feris said shakily.

“Why do you always say that!?” Nimble snapped, throwing the half eaten biscuit at Feris. “Why is it always some damned wizard? What’s wrong with you? Is this world not frelling weird enough that you have to…” He looked at Feris, then down at his shaking hands. “It licked me… do you understand that? It crawled up into my lap, and it licked my face.”

Rathgar reached over and put his hand on Nimble’s shoulder. “Allianora said there didn’t seem to be any lasting effects…”

“I will never forget it. How’s that for lasting effects? And where is she anyway?”

"She went off to pray. She was in there with you. We all were."

"Until you ran, and left us alone with that thing..."



Puppymonkeybaby: Init +1; Atk flail +1 melee (1d4); AC 10; HD 1d6; MV 20'; Act 1d20; SP Trasnfix; SV Fort - 2, Ref -2, Will +5; AL C

These small abominations are chimeras created by mad wizards combining a puppy, a monkey, and a humanoid baby. Which parts end up where is variable, but the end result is something that will haunt the minds of all who encounter it till the end of their days. Because their creation disturbs even their creators, only one will ever be encountered at a time.

Upon viewing a Puppymonkeybaby all must make a Will save. Those failing the first become entranced, treating the chimera as a kindly companion, even as it leads them to danger and death. Those passing the first save must then make a Fort save, or flee in revulsion.

Puppymonkeybabies have a preternatural sense for magical and mechanical traps and will avoid triggering them all the while leading their victims into them. While they don't tend to collect treasure, the bodies of their victims are left undisturbed in whatever traps they died in.

  3. WHATS WRONG WITH A MOUNTAIN DEW COMMERCIAL THAT JUST MADE UP SOME CREATURE USING A LOT OF COMPUTER GRAPHICS JUST TO MAKE PEOPLE LAUGH AND TO GET PEOPLE TO BUY THEIR PRODUCTS. THE CORRECT ANSWER IS = THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT SO YOU ALL NEED TO JUST SHUT UP AND STOP SPREADING RUMORS THAT MAKE NO SENSE. YOU ALL ARE JUST SOME MESSED UP PEOPLE THAT WANT TO PREVENT PEOPLE FROM HAVING A GOOD LAUGH EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE !
