By the way, it has been suggested (by me) that Elemental, Magical Beast or Monstrous Humanoid might be really great choices for Type this time around... :smallwink:

Monstrous Humanoid!!!

I must have it!

Wow. You just don't let up.

And, my apologies, but I'm going to continue voting Outsider.

Elemental, those are always fun. Remember, we're not strictly restricted to the classical elements as far as elementals are concerned!

Animal Monstrous Humanoid.

Well, afro, since you're determined to bend the vote to your will this time around I'll go with Monstrous Humanoid. Let's see us a minotaur or something.

Hopefully I'll get my Nightwalker for VUAV X.

Monstrous Humanoid

Magical Beast.

Elemental, for that is the only path to awesome.

Monstrous Humanoid.

Animal.

I kid. Elemental.

Monstrous Humanoid, it, like magical beast, constains so many excellent potential candidates for a villain.

Let's have a Magical beast.

Monstrous Humanoid

Elemental!!! We needs moar of them!! I want to see a Time Elemental in 3.5 that doesn't fail really badly!

Elemental! I think it's time we get something that matches up with Zeta's Polymental.

Monstrous Humanoid. We haven't had class levels in awhile.

Monstrous Humanoid sounds like a good idea.

Monstrous Humanoid, easily. Mainly because I still want a Bio-mage or a Harrowed villain.

Monstrous Humanoid the option that can have (a) class

Monstrous Humanoid

Elemental Please.

Well, it seems people are generally supportive of that idea that was had by someone who was probably me. :smalltongue:

You know, I think I'll listen to that little voice in my ear and vote for Monstrous Humanoid.

I'm in your ear? :smalleek:

well it looks like my vote doesnt matter now but here is it anyway, Monstrous Humanoid looks like we are denying Juhn his nightwalker once again

The number of hoops he'd have to jump through to get a nightwalker is pretty high at any rate.

Alas, the bandwagon has run over the magical beast. Though I am cool with monstrous humanoids.
...

I wonder if someone (who may or may not be Afro) has an idea about the fluff as well. And if there is such a thing, maybe a not voted up critter be posted to leave vote up threads unskewed...(Disclaimer: This is an attempt to extract even more stuff out of Afro, any pretense of concern over democracy is merely a farce designed to garner sympathy.)
