The Dozen Dungeon Challenge!
My creativity has been in the sewers of late and my tank of inspiration going on empty.
So, though I'm probably going to regret this, I'm going to take the next 12 monster suggestions folks give me and have them completely done by this time tomorrow if possible.
Maybe it'll give me a jumpstart... or a breakdown. Either way, won't have to worry about it any more.
Please keep the suggestions original and doable.
And.... GO!
-=-=-=-=-=-
I'll be posting my works in the Homebrew forums, and will post links below.

Re: The Dozen Dungeon Challenge!
Dungeon Fungus: a mold that digs out dungeons... and adds traps, locked doors, and so on.
Of course, by the time I finish this post, it will already be obsolete. C'est la vie.

Re: The Dozen Dungeon Challenge!
Errrr... thats bordering plausibility but we'll see what comes to mind.
Note: Just because Dungeon is in the title, none of the suggestions need be limited to literal dungeon-type terrain. Can by any kind of concept.

Re: The Dozen Dungeon Challenge!
Symbiotic Mind:
An ethereal ghost-like creature that bonds with a "host". It lives off his mental stats (penalty to Int, Wis, and/or Cha); in exchange, it provides limited psionic and incarnum powers.

Re: The Dozen Dungeon Challenge!
Clockwork Ooze.
Interpret it as you will, but some possibilities are thousands/millions of minuscule gears that end up with a near-ooze appearance with how they flow and roll. Likely has some sort of combustion engine to turn living matter into fuel. Great for a Mechanus encounter or mad genius's workshop.Ad maiorem Dei gloriam.
Thanks to Ceika for the great avatar.

Dungam: A collosal+ humanoid Construct with lots of magical goodies that can be ridden and controlled by a 'pilot' of sorts.
And btw folks, note the 'original' clause up there. Adding published templates to published creatures are 'not' original.Last edited by The Vorpal Tribble; 2007-07-28 at 02:46 PM.

Re: The Dozen Dungeon Challenge!
Higgins: An old man, who's top half looks like the guy from Ask.com/the monopoly man, and who's bottom half is a woman legs in fish net stockings (has been considered to look similar to the NPC Haskil from the Oblivion expansion, Shivering Isles). All he ever says is his name, he is unique and cannot die. EVER! When you reduce him to -10 HP he just goes unconcious and comes around in 1 round.
This isn't actually my idea, Wraith came up with it one very random night. Friggin' hilarious when he first came up with it.

Fog of Visions.
Fog of Visions is a creature that feeds of anything consumable that enters it's body. When you enter the Fog of Visions you start to have visions of being a participant of long gone battles and epic duels.
All yours. Including the name.Last edited by Murderous Hobo; 2007-07-28 at 03:49 PM.

Dust monster
A relative of the rust monster that attacks by removing all water from its organic target and eating the dusty remains (think horrid wilting or disintegration in lessened forms).
