Now if it follows the usual domestic feline habit of rubbing itself up against your legs in affection, you've got problems...

that cats really a poke uh

Just to let everyone know, I'm presently in the process of creating the Hodag. I admit that it's going to be a somewhat hard one to create for me.

have fun with it...folklore and mythology, especially of the modern kind, is pretty loose on specifics, so you can play around a lot with it...

a hodag?

Have you considered ever doing anything from the Burgess Shale biota?

Answer to Duck-Foot-Sama: Look here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hodag .
Answer to taalismn: Burgess Shale biota??? I'd have to look it up before considering it.

here's a scale diagram with the names of some of the wilder-looking critters...

They're generally small critters, but scaled up they'd look like something out of a Godzilla flick...

As promised, here's the Hodag:

Hodag (Ridiculous)
Original Animal Characteristics:
Description: The Hodag is a creature that was said to have been found in 1893 by Mr. Eugene Shepard
from the Rhinelander, Wisconsin region of North America. But when it was admitted that the Hodag was a fake, the town eventually decided to use the creature as its mascot. When the technology of Genetic engineering was made available to the public, the town decided that they’d bring their mascot to life. They used the genetic material of a frog, an elephant, lion and some DNA from various lizards (for the spines, skin and tail) to create the Hodag.

And another one, this one for you Feline lovers:
Wampus Cat (Ridiculous)
Original Animal Characteristics:
Description: The Wampus cat is a legendary creature. This is a monster of the Fearsome Critters variety, coined by the lumberjack community of the United States. According to the tale, a Native American woman disguised herself in the skin of a Mountain Lion to spy on the men of the tribe as they sat around the campfire and told sacred stories on a hunting trip. When the woman was discovered, the tribe's Medicine Man punished her by transforming her into a half-woman, half-cat, who supposedly still haunts the forests of East Tennessee.
Another legend of the Wampus Cat comes from the Eastern part of Alabama. Supposedly, a secret program was carried out by the government in the 1940's to create an agile, fierce message carrier to be utilized on the European front during World War II, much like passenger pigeons were used in WWI. This program was based near Cheaha Mountain in the Talladega Forest, an area that was and remains very sparsely settled. The creature was part Mountain Lion and part Grey Wolf. However, several male and female specimens of the newly created species escaped and were never captured. Sightings of these hybrid creatures have been reported in the area ever since, with (supposed) sightings occurring as far south as the Everglades and as far north as the Great Smoky Mountains. They have also been blamed for breaking into chicken coops, mauling livestock, and even stalking humans. Several instances have been recorded of actual attacks, but most are believed to have been mountain lion attacks.
As it turns out, both versions actually existed (the first version though is a natural occurring mutation) before the Crash happened. But once the Crash took place, The 2 versions started to spread into other regions that were effectively lost to it when civilization abounded.

i tried doing some Vendian lifeforms, however i cannot get enough information for them. you do know taalismn that i did some Cambrian lifeforms

Yep, and I was duly impressed by them...

Oh well, I may have to do some digging for you, and pass on what I find(or try my hand at critter creation myself)...

Go right ahead, my friend, no one's stopping you. In fact, I insist that everyone should/could give it a try. I'm going to TRY to add more mythic creatures myself. The only thing that I ask is that everyone should have all the information in the stat blocks (including the info for the Looks).

all right taalismn sounds good. see if you can find anything

Maybe we should find out more info for doing up more various Mythos mutants.

Here's my take on the European Dragon:

European Dragon (Chimera)
Original Animal Characteristics:
Description: The European Dragon from legend was a large, majestic creature that was said to roam throughout Europe & Russia. It was also said to be quite intelligent, but primitive at the same time. But the Dragon from the After the Bomb was created based to have a more animal mindset. That was before the Crash happened. After the Crash, as the various normal animals were gaining sentience and more humanoid forms, the Dragon gained intelligence that was quite high, but at the same time more selfish than a creature normally would/should be. It was created by combining various mammals with some reptile species, in effect making it a warm-blooded creature. It was created using Crocodilian, Bat, Giraffe and Snake DNA.
Size Level: 25.
Length/Height: 65-80 ft long, 15 ft tall at hips (24.38m, 4.75m).
Weight: Up to 75,000 lbs (33,750 kg).
Build: Medium.

Mutant Changes and Cost:
Total BIO-E: 0.
Attribute Bonuses: Beastly Strength, +12 P.S., + 5 I.Q.

Human Features:
Hands: Automatically Full.
Biped: Automatically None.
Speech: Automatically Full.
Looks: None: Looks like your basic European Dragon. A large reptile with a long neck, large jaws filled with razor-sharp teeth and forward facing eyes on a large, long head, bat-like wings, large scaly body ending in a long tail. Its large, powerful legs end in large, clawed feet.

Natural Weapons:
5 Bio-E for 3D6 damage Teeth.
10 Bio-E for 4D6+3 damage Serrated Teeth.
5 Bio-E for 2D6 damage Running Claws (on hind feet).
10 Bio-E for 4D6 damage Scythe Claws (on front feet/hands).
10 BIO-E for 4D6 damage Whipsaw Tail: Counts as one extra attack per melee round, the top of the tail is covered with razor-sharp serrations, like the blade of a steak knife, and inflicts 4D6 damage per strike, plus P.S. Bonus.
20 BIO-E for Paralytic Poison Venom: A hollow track in the two front canines/fangs can inject a special poison into an opponent. This poison causes damage and possible paralysis. Victims must make a save vs. non-lethal poison to avoid being paralyzed for 3D6 melee rounds. Any successful attack where the poison is injected also does 1D6 damage directly to the victim's hit points with no saving throw. Injecting the poison requires a successful bite attack. The damage from the poison venom is in addition to the damage inflicted by the bite. Note: Injecting an opponent more than once increases the length of the paralysis by another 1D6 melee rounds, and does another 1D4 damage direct to hit points.
35 BIO-E for Deadly Poison Venom Mist: This poison causes damage and possibly a fatal coma. Victims must save vs. lethal poison to avoid falling into a coma. The roll to save must be made every melee round, until the lungs are flushed, anti-venom administered or until ten full minutes have elapsed. A failed roll, at any point means the victim has fallen into a coma. After falling into a coma, the character must then make a save vs. lethal point every fifteen minutes to avoid fatal convulsions from this poison. Victims in a coma will be in danger of dying for six hours, or until an anti-venom solution is administered. Injecting the poison requires a successful bite attack. The damage from the bit is in addition to the poison damage. Note: Injecting an opponent more than once in a single combat does an additional 1D6 damage direct to hit points plus the damage from the bite itself, but does not increase the risk from coma or death.

Mutant Animal Powers:
Automatically gets Advanced Hearing & Advanced Vision.
Automatically gets Extra Limbs: Wings & Glide.
5 Bio-E for Basic Flight.
5 Bio-E for Extra Intelligence Quotient.
10 Bio-E for Soaring Flight.

-10 BIO-E for Nocturnal.
-10 BIO-E for Vestigial Wings.

Have to hunt up Eels and Snakes then for pointers....

ive got a big list. im not big on myth animals though

I'm working on it (or at least TRYING to abyway), it'll take me a bit though.

Have you looked in the Palladium Book of Monsters & Animals™? It's full of normal animals and mythical beasties. I'm pretty sure they have something you would call a sea serpent.

Another book you may want to refer to is Beyond the Supernatural™ (First Edition if you have it).

Well, Rali. I do have the BTS1, but I'm going to do up my own stats, thanx.

For sooth, the legendary Sea Serpent is now done. And it is grand:

Sea Serpent (Purebred)
Original Animal Characteristics:
Description: The study of the Sea Serpents went back hundreds to thousands of years all the way to the present day. During this time period, dozens of other mythical sea creatures were proven real, and at many points in history it seemed as if official discovery of the sea serpent was just around the corner.
Sightings of sea serpents were quite numerous, occurring in all the world's oceans and come from every era of history, including a substantial number of modern sightings. Because of these facts, and because the ocean was by far the easiest place for a large animal to live undetected, many researchers still held out hope that someday the sea serpent may be discovered. Among mainstream scientists, however, there was no longer any serious belief in the sea serpent. It remained mythical for too long, and therefore it quickly brought ridicule to any scientist who investigated it as a possibly real flesh-and-blood creature.
That was until the advent of Gene-splicing. Within a few years, some people ended up working on creating some Sea Serpents (by combining Snake DNA with Whale DNA in order to create the creatures) for various aquatic Theme Parks.
Sea serpents come in a variety of colors, including black, brown, gray and green, and have adult lengths ranging from twenty feet to hundreds of feet. Most of them are reported to move in an undulating up-and-down motion, with a series of humps visible above the water at times. They generally have a split tail, like a whale, and may have one, two or more pairs of paddle-legs along their lengths. They may have armoured segments like a millipede, large plates or scales, or a smooth rubbery skin. Most often, they have smooth skin suggestive of a mammal.
Sometimes sea serpents have a mane of hair or hair-like fins running in a row along the back. The head is generally described as horse-shaped, with huge cat-like or eagle-like eyes. On sea serpents that don't follow that body plan, the head and neck instead resemble an elephant's trunk, with tiny eyes and a small mouth near the "tip" of the "trunk." Some sea serpents sport whiskers, but it is not always clear whether witnesses mean the same kind of whiskers that cats, dogs and seals have, or whether they mean fleshy "whiskers" of the sort that are found on catfish.
Size Level: 25.
Height: 80 ft long (24.38 m).
Weight: Up to 75, 000 lbs (33,750 kg).

Just giving you some grief

Did you intend the sea serpent to be a playable race? If not, I'd up the BIO-E available (plus a note that it has animal intelligence), add at least one more damage step to the teeth (ahh, I see you've already done that), and maybe a note on swimming and ramming damage (an aquatic version of flight powers).

Playable Race: Yes, at least for an ocean going campaign (or if its on the Great Lakes). Swimming & Ramming damage: Well, I'm guessing that you can convert the stuff from the Flight section to Swimming. Also, as of right now I'm going to TRY to do up stats for mutant based off of Japanese myth for anyone thats running a game in Asia. Starting with the Amikiri. Here's a pic of it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:SekienAmikiri.jpg

Signed,
Rathorc Lemenger.

Well, here it is:

Amikiri (Chimera)
Original Animal Characteristics:
Description: The Amikiri was a creature from Japanese legend. It was said that it was a small, snake-like creature with a bird-like head with lobster-like claws on a pair of fore limbs. It was only in legend until someone decided to make a creature based on it. Now, it inhabits forests (mainly in the trees) and at the very edge of fields where it hunts for food.

Climbing, provided that the character has the skill, can also be as quick as half the character's maximum Spd. (10 times Spd. equals yard/meters per minute).

Alkonost

Signed,

alkonost. huh??? is an alkonost

A creature from Slavic and Baltic Mythology. Like a harpy, an alkonost has the body of a bird with the face of a woman.

In Russian legends alkonost is 'the bird of paradise' and is looked upon favorably. Other references says that the alkonost is known to torments the damned with her terrible songs so they never get any peace.

The name Alkonost came from the name of Greek demi-goddess Alcyone--daughter of Aeolus--transformed by gods into a kingfisher when she through herself into the sea after the gods killed her husband, Ceyx.

Other similar creatures would be the Sirin, Harpy, and Gamayun. All variations of the mythological bird with a woman's face.

It's worth a shot in the dark to do, Rali.

Signed,
Rathorc Lemenger.

It shouldn't be hard. IMO, take one of the bird templates and set the Human features as Wings: Automatic, Hands: None, Biped: Full, Speech: Full, Looks: Partial & Weird (A birds body topped with the head of a human female). Probably start them out at a size level of 6 or 7 and enough BIO-E (15-20) to purchase: Size Levels, Extra Limbs: Set of Arms, Partial Hands on the wings, and/or some Animal Psionics.

I think Seagulls probably work for the Alkonost
Owl template should be used for Sirin
Raven for Gamayun
and Eagles, Falcons, & Hawks for the Harpy

I'd recommend using the Vulture for Sirens, but there isn't a template for them.

I'm working on the other list first & foremost.

Rathorc Lemenger.

oh so thats what an alkonost is

Here's the latest mutant, enjoy:

Catoblepas
Original Animal Characteristics:
Description: “The Catoblepas has the body of a buffalo and a head of a hog (swine). Its back was full of scales as a protection, and its head was always pointing downwards. Its stare or breath can either turn people into stone, or kill them.” That’s what a Greek scientist had read from a book of old Mythological creatures that he had found in a second-hand book store. It then started to give him ideas. But after the Crash, the Catoblepas now roams the plains of Europe.
