Description Mormel: built for subterranean labor and excavation, these bull-sized mutant rodents have the unusual (and accidental) trait of being completely immune to psionics. With most of their muscle mass connecting to the jaws and teeth laced with raw metal, their bite is a true force to be reckoned with. They particularly enjoy crunching skulls between their incisors, and may store them in their cheek pouches.

Venomax: fusion of human with scorpion. Though it loathes the sun, it craves the heat and is entirely fire-resistant. After paralyzing prey with its lightning-fast sting, it impales it on its larger claw.

Despire: a small but exceedingly malicious creature, the Despire is able to "reverse" the emotions of humans and other monsters, sewing irrational hatred between friends or turning the fear of its prey into deadly curiosity. It has a strong dislike of human children.

Tumor-man: the true form of this noxious zombie is hidden by a thick shell of random, overgrown flesh that it can instantaneously spread to other creatures by a single touch. Victims cannot spread the infection themselves, but fall completely under the Tumor-man's will, creating a cancerous collective of enslaved bodies. This process is pleasurable for the tumor-man, which titters and burbles contentedly while pouring noxious blight into another living body. Thankfully, these beings are too carefree and simple-minded to become a serious threat, rarely leaving whatever dank alley or sewage drain they mark as territory.

Boltbucket: these deranged "entertainment" monsters are designed to unleash completely random kill-commands (or the ocassional "prize") on a specific verbal trigger that varies from monster to monster, though the most commonly programmed trigger appears to be "hello". A single unit may house over thirty ways of causing extreme discomfort and/or death to hapless victims, from live scorpions and itching powder to "rabies darts" and miniature atomic warheads. They are capable of speech, but act senile and scatterbrained. "Execute" appears to be their favorite word, often repeated for hours at a time.

Neurosia: these completely insane constructs can generate seemingly random metal objects from inside their mysterious cubes, and are rumored to control the gateway to another plane of existence. They sooner destroy themselves by implosion than allow their boxes to be studied, and can only be created at all with the aid of a temporal distortion engine.

Huh, Neurosia's original description is WAY different than the current one

I notice that most of these became Mortasheen. I like to see how your original designs evolved into Mortasheen.

I really like the concept behind Boltbucket (EG, a creature that resembles a robot but is actually organic underneath) You should totally redo it, maybe with a bit more organic parts showing.

It'd just be odd to have this ONE robot-based monster in all my hundreds of creatures, but I'm not good enough at drawing machinery to come up with many more and justify it just yet...

Well, given that you've made the Z-Class Biomecha type of Mortasheen since that reply was written would you ever consider bringing back Boltbucket? The concept of a robot used for gambling where if you lose it tries to kill you is brilliant! Maybe add some more roulette-wheel aspects to the design.

Yeah, I kinda wanna expand boltbucket into a whole class of mecha...but it'll take me a while to think of designs

I liked the old Nerosia and Tumor-man.

Besides the point. I'm making a comic about Necromon. Do you, or do you not want me to make this comic. If yes, note me about what you are going to change. (Please don't change Hangman. He's cool!)

You can make whatever you want, you should just put some info on where they originally come from in a readily-visible place like under the title or something.

Everything I'm changing should be changed within the next two weeks anyhow. To be on the safe side you could always just stick with monsters from the latest uploads

Sweet, man!

Mormel looks like a bald, mutated Raticate. I wish I had one.

Tumor-man's ability is disturbing but perfectly perfect for somethin' like Necromon. He's also got the funnest physical design of the Necromon present on this sheet. :3 Mormel's cute. XD
