I heard someone on the masterwork forums saying they had a tool to basically allow them to make new fb's and titans.

I think that may be referring to the localization tool, which AFAIK only allows you to modify them.

Its body is a small sphere with brain inside with 16 large tentacles growing out of it. 8 of them are prehensile and end with a sharp deadly claws, while other 8 are used to walk.

This game needs more endrich stuff. I mean, we got cavers to populate.

Cool, but wouldn't this likely lead to tongues having a '[SPEACH]' tag, and thus via necromancy we would have nearly unkillable reanimated tongues following necromancers spamming 'it is sad but not unexpected'?

Anyone willing to make a sea based Megabeast??

Not sure if dying of old age is an honor or a shame for weaponmasters. On the one hand, it means they never got the opportunity to die in glorious battle. On the other hand, it means nothing could beat them in glorious battle.

I also wonder why don't we have wooden beasts? Perhaps not as imposing as stone titans or bronze colossi, giant walking psycho ents would make a nice addition to the game.

Ents would be nice, but they'd probably be rare dangerous animals in evil biomes, much like Ogres or Yetis.

Ents would be nice, but they'd probably be rare dangerous animals in evil good biomes, much like Ogres or Yetis unicorns or yet another damn unicorns.

Ents shouldn't be in evil biomes, ents should be in savage, untamed areas that are densely populated. They should be fairly peaceful, exept when fire is lit or trees cut. Then they should atack with a savage furry. Thats my take on ents.

Well, my Purgatory Wolf and Phoenix are done. A Purgatory Wolf, with it's fearless and painlessness, iron bones, teeth, and claws, and massive size, can match many dwarves of moderate skill at once. A natural legendary dodger skill sure helps. The Phoenix is a bit more glassy, but has steel claws that can even rip into dragons if they have the first shot. Half the size of the Roc, it can light anything on fire, and is immune to dragon fire. When butchered, you receive both star and regular rubies by butchering it, and I'm thinking of putting a super expensive gem in, Phoenix Heart, making killing a phoenix a major investment. Also, both a trapavoid. Have fun with that.

It'd be amazing if you put the RAWs in a spoiler with that post.

Oh yeah. I'll pop them in, along with the unique body shape, the new gem, and maybe the mountain dragon, since I consider him a part of those two, in here. Mountain Dragon>Phoenix. Phoenix>Purgatory Wold. Purgatory Wolf>Mountain Dragon.

Megabeasts:

Zilant
A huge serpent-like creature with dark-colored scales and huge wings. It would be like dragons, but even more dangerous. They can spit poison beams, which causes necrosis, temporary lost of the functions of the part and severe pain if it hits. They also have sharp teeth, and equally sharp claws on their feet. They would have the ability to reproduce (They could lay eggs) and could be tamed and trained for war training, which would be a pretty fun way to deal with elfs unwanted guests.

Basilisk
Another huge serpent-like creature, but with the ability to turn stuff into stone via poisoning. It would basically affect the affected bodypart first, then it would spread slowly through the body, eventually reaching the brain and causing death. Their offspring would be cockatrices, cute little birds who would slowly lose their feathers, replacing it with scales.

This doesn't look so dangerous, I mean, it basically has a dragonfire that has a different way of spreading.

Also, is it possible for something to have two mouths?
