We All Have Done Things That We're Not Proud Of...Type IV Monsters

I'm just popping into home before dashing to the library (Thomas Ligotti, M John Harrison and a Physics Textbook!), and I figured this to be an opportunity to expose my shameful descent into Type IV Dungeons & Dragons (...the bright side is that our gaming group pretty much hit rock bottom, got ourselves clean, and started playing healthy, old-tyme D&D).

So here's some rat-bastard-DM Sword & Sorcery monsters I made for my deceased-and-never-returning 4th edition campaign; once I'm done running about and taking care or chores I'll catch up with your emails and comments.

BOG ALLOSAUR

This bipedal horse-sized dinosaur looks like a hybrid between an allosaur and an alligator. It has muscular forearms that end in fierce webbed talons and a thick, long armor-plated tail.

Bog allosaurs are smallish carnosaurs found in tropical swamplands. They are vicious and intelligent for dinosaurs, and play cat-and-mouse games with their prey.

GLOW MUTANT

Emanating a sickly green glow is a manlike figure with rotting flesh, in some places the yellowing bones are revealed. There is an unpleasant metallic taste in your mouth and a ringing in your ears.

In some places, powerful radiations warp creatures that dwell therein. Glow Mutants are the end result of generations of humanoids dwelling in such lands. They are usually starving, as their glow and slow shamble inhibits their ability to hunt, as well as the lack of forage in the wastelands they inhabit.

YIG-YIG

Looking much like short, sallow, wiry humans clad in loincloths and bone jewelry, with their black hair in a ‘bowl-cut,’ closer examination reveals the yellow eyes with the slit-pupils of a snake, serpentine fangs and scattered patches of skin with a scaly texture.

The descendants of a pre-human race of serpent-worshippers, the Yig-Yigs have bred with both their scaly gods and mankind over the eons, becoming a race of deformed primitives. They live a tribal existence in sweltering tropical jungles; those who are favored in the eyes of the dark powers they serve are gifted with unnatural longevity and supernatural powers. These Elders retire to the Fang Temples where they serve their deity for centuries. Under normal circumstances, yig-yigs will try to render their enemies unconscious, taking them captive and delivering them to their masters.
