This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

What other hybrid animals would work as nicely as Owl+Bear?

Someday I'll sleep again... :eek:
Hmmm, maybe I should update my RPG website with more of the stuff I've been working on, since Sacro has denied me sleep...
Quote from: dragoner;776244Mechanical character builds remind me of something like picking the shoe in monopoly, it isn\'t what I play rpg\'s for.

Silverlion

Quote from: Kanye Westeros;613702Avatar is great for these. My favourites including...

Boar-Q-Pine: Boar/Porcupine, a charging, stocky ball of spikey death.
Bull Antelope: Could you image being headbutted by such a thing?
Gorilla Goat: A huge, lumbering gorilla with horns who eats everything in sight.
Platypus Bear: Probably the same magic which endears the Owlbear.



Well said. Vulture-Wasps, Sabertooth-Moose, Skunk-bear. and more

The so-called scifi channel had two good ones.

Sharktopus and Mansquito.

D&D is not an "everyone gets a ribbon" game.  If you\'re stupid, your PC will die.  If you\'re an asshole, your PC will die (probably from the other PCs).  If you\'re unlucky, your PC may die.  Point?  PC\'s die.  Get over it and roll up a new one.

Quote from: Bill;614097Love the sharkpidgeon!

Shull? Gark?


Normal seagulls can be scary. That one is truly terrifying.

That bear-antula up there is horrible and beautiful at the same time.  My contributions would have to be:
1.  bat + scorpian= Night Stingers?
2.  anything + manta ray (because rays are awesome)
3.  Electric Eel + boa constrictor
Anything combining mammal and insect would probably creep me out.  
It's like Sci Fi Saturday in here!

Bill

I nominate Bearantula as the name with the best sound.

Blackhand

Blackhand 2.0 - New and improved version!

My wife and I love watching the horrible SyFy movies, and inspired by these two, we once spent most of an afternoon e-mailing silly hybrid creature ideas to one another rather than working at our respective jobs.

The lady came up with the best hybrid:

Lamprarie Dog
For fuck\'s sake, these are games, people.

And no one gives a fuck about your ignore list.


Gompan
band - other music

Hmmm...Lamprairie Dog and Crawk! are serious contenders for best name.

Blackhand

Quote from: Bill;614206Hmmm...Lamprairie Dog and Crawk! are serious contenders for best name.

I'm totally putting Crawks in the Temple adventure...maybe a random encounter where we break for the Ghost Tower of Inverness.
Blackhand 2.0 - New and improved version!

Some of these are neat, some of them are just dumb... but god help me, there's not one of them that parallels the majesty of the Owlbear!
