Turnipid

Turnipids are sentient vegetable creatures. They live in large communal gardens, usually located on plateaus, mountains, or other isolated areas. The creature's roots have structure in such a way as to allow locomotion. Like all plants they create their own food via photosynthesis, however they also possess a rudimentary digestive system and thus routinely supplement their diet with animal protein, mostly taken from various types of insects which are reared much like livestock.

Cave Dragon

Cave Dragons are gigantic, subterranean lizards. As young they are born blind, and use a highly developed sense of smell to hunt bats, rodents, and small animals. As the beast grows to gargantuan size it develops keen night-vision that allows it to hunt on the surface at night.

Bone Spirit

Bone Spirits are ghosts which have existed on Earth for countless ages, so long they have forgotten the last vestiges of their former earthly lives. For one reason or another they stayed behind on the Earthly plane, perhaps seeking closure for an Earthly injustice of some kind. But time wears on, and those who live upon the Earth have short memories.

They roam the landscape, slowly counting the ever lasting years, watching nations raise and fall and taunting them with the countless transient lives of human beings which seem to flash before them in the blink of an eye. Who can say what insanity goes through the mind of a being trapped on this Earthly plane who's life ended before the advent of language? How can such a being find closure when all it knew in life lived, died, and turned to rot so long ago as to be counted on a geologic scale?

Truly it is not those who pass on to parts unknown which are cursed, but those who are left behind, as few of us possess the fortitude to withstand infinity.

Magma Dragons

Magma dragons are large bipedal dragons that live in molten magma. The creature's hide develops a thick, protective rock-like layer that allows it to survive in the harsh environment. Magma dragons tend to nest in the open calderas of volcanoes or in magma pools in deep caves.

Siphonatrix

The Siphonatrix are a species of space borne parasites. The creature emits spores which drift through the void until they come in contact with a rocky body (such as a moon or asteroid) or even a space craft. They creatures then feed upon the solar wind as a type of microscopic "space plankton." They are generally harmless in this state, however if exposed to a rich nitrogen-oxygen atmosphere they mature into overlarge monstrous versions of themselves. Once in this state the creatures will swarm and attempt to consume any electromagnetic power sources, as well as organic materials (such as people.) A general standing rule throughout the galaxy is to eliminate any Siphonatrix colonies on sight.

Laetus Demon

Laetus Demons are primitive, bulky entities that roam Hell's lower levels. Unlike their other demonic companions, the Laetus tribe is strangely contented with life in Hell amongst the burning flames. They happily go about their business torturing and punishing the souls of the damned. Their cheery disposition tends to get on the nerves of other demons, who delight in bullying them.

Pukwudgie

In Wampanog folklore, a Pukwudgie is a short, trollish like nature spirit, with large ears, nose, and hands, and smooth skin. They are said to have several different magic powers, such as the ability to disappear, transform into animals, or instantly create fire. If one crosses a Pukwudgie it's best to leave them alone, else they might follow you home and play cruel tricks.

Dobkeratops

Dobkeratops (also called the Gommander, in certain gaming magazines) is the first boss from the arcade game R-Type. It appears as some sort of strange bio-mechanical alien, and when first encountered appears to be in the process of being assembled (as it's missing arms and legs.) While the head is upper part is clearly organic, the lower part is covered with body armor and mechanics/circuitry can be seen inside. The Dobkeratops returns in one form or another in all games in the series.

Medusa

In Greek mythology, Medusa is one of the three Gorgons. In traditional mythology she his depicted with a head full of snakes, winged, and with a gaze that can turn those who look upon it into stone. She is beheaded by the hero Perseus, and her head is used as a weapon until it is finally given to the goddess Athena and placed on her shield. This image became a protective talisman known as the Gorgoneion.

Kittahpillar

A new genetically engineered pet from the Cristix corporation. Kittahpillars combine the DNA of common ordinary house cats and exotic South American butterflies. The resulting creature is a very, very long cat with multiple segments and off-colored spots. Kittahpillars were initially very successful, but complaints began to roll in once the creatures began to pupate.
