Quote from: Old One Eye;942468Heck yeah! More of that you game publisher people!

Frank Baum was pioneering fantasy when Howard and Tolkein were nothing but a glimmer in their respective parents' loins. More Baum influence!

Last time I ran a CoC game that went into the Dreamlands I threw in a lot of stuff from Oz that people don't know from the movie. It worked pretty well.

Man Eating Monkeys from Low Fantasy Gaming RPG. Had them in a jungle ruined city, crept up on adventurers while they slept... as battle unfolded, huge footsteps could be heard (using Roll20 sound effects)... monkeys fled... then the Trex burst in (with roll20 roar effect, lifted from Jurssic Park! It was COOL

Man eating monkeys are 3 ft agile primates with elongated teeth, extended jaws and feral tempers. They are clever pack hunters and will seek to stalk and ambush their opponents, usually dropping from the trees while their prey sleeps. Man eating monkeys go into a feeding frenzy when a target becomes staggered, at which time all monkeys within 30 ft will seek to attack the wounded target, ignoring other targets and risking free attacks to reposition. On a critical hit, a man eating monkey climbs up onto the back of the target and sinks its fangs into the prey's neck, forcing the target to make a Str check or fall prone.

In "The Setting", my game world for my first-ever RPG product ("Forward... to Adventure!"), I had an area known as the Gorilla Kingdoms. Basically, a planet-of-the-apes/DC-comics type civilization of highly advanced sentient gorillas.

In my DCC campaign I ported that over to the setting of the "world of the last sun", where they game. The PCs have run into a few Ape-men, two notable ones: Dr. Theobald, the ape-man scientist, who ran with the party for quite a while (one of the few NPCs to survive them!); and Harembe, the bodyguard of Princess Zoey of the kingdom of Coolland.
