Icronus the Terrible



Icronus is a member of a peaceful space faring race. Unfortunately his ship malfunctioned and crash landed deep in the Amazon jungle. During the impact Icronus suffered a massive cerebral hemorrhage and awoke with severe brain damage. Furthermore the impurities in Earth's atmosphere coupled with exposure to the esoteric radiation of his own starship drive further mutated his DNA, making him grow to a height twice the normal size for one of his race. A small side effect of this is now he is completely insane.

He is left now with only an extremely rudimentary intelligence, and is subject to act on base bodily desires such as hunger and fear without impulse. Somewhere in the back of his mind lie memories of a peaceful, idyllic world many many light years away, of creatures not unlike himself living in harmonious communal family warrens and exploring the deeper reaches of space, and sometimes in between clashes with the Earth's military forces and other giant monsters, the twisted thing may even feel a tinge of an emotion he can no longer understand.

For on some level the monstrosity known as Icronus knows he will never see such things again. Perhaps if he could get his head clear, but first the hunger calls....

Yrrah and Nesuah


A gigantic ogre with two heads, Yrrah and Nesuah are freaks even among their own kind. Yrrah (left) got all the brains while Nesuah (right) concerns himself with more brutish pursuits. Yrrah consides himself the boss, becasue he's "taller." Although they usually work together, they are prone to argue amongst themselves (usually when it comes to dinner.)

Fphlango the Damaged


Fphlango comes from a proud warrior race, one that holds physical prowess in high regard. Many of his people become athletes, professional fighters, soldiers, or law enforcement officers. Fphlango himself joined a rouge outfit of interstellar mercenaries known as the Paradroid Confederation. However life as a mercenary is not without risk.

Fphlango found himself critically wounded after a particularly heated fire fight. Not only had his powerful body been burned nearly to a crisp, but also a large piece of shrapnel buried itself in his head, severely impairing his mental functions. The Paradroid Confederation however leaves no resource untapped. Fplango's life was saved, at a very high cost.

Fplango is now little more than a head, permanently attached into a robotic frame. Thankfully the shrapnel injury left him with the intelligence of a small child, because had Fplango retained his full mental capacity his shame at living in such a state would be unbearable. Now a freak among his own kind, he spends his days doing menial chores - repair, construction, waste disposal, laundry, etc. He has a vague desire to die in battle one day, but will probably never get the chance.

He also plays lots of video games.

Turtle Gnoll

Large, lumbering, dragon-like turtles. The Turtle Gnoll grows to be 10 feet long, and is covered with rows of sharp spines. The creatures prey mostly on small animals, but habitat destruction have forced them into populated areas. Turtle Gnolls have been known to bury themselves under dirt and piles of leaves at a good ambush spot. When provoked they have been shown to charge, like an angry rhinoceros.

Chuthseal

Titanic seal-like animals that inhabit the frozen wastes. The Chuthseal has a series of strange tentacles hanging from it's facial area, which help the creature root through the muck along the bottom of the ocean for prey. They have also been known to hunt in packs like lions, and bring down far larger animals.

Behältergesicht

Behältergesicht is a heavy weapons expert for a group of interstellar mercenaries called the Paradroid Confederation. He joined the group already an old soldier, a mercenary veteran of several wars. A severe shuttle accident left him missing the lower half of his body, and thus he (along with several of his comerades) had his body surgically implanted with cybernetic parts. Behältergesicht tends to favor brute force for any situation, and usually gets in over his head.

Gorehog

A massive, lumbering giant, like a cross between a warthog and a Komodo Dragon, the Gorehog is as dangerous as it sounds. Standing 9 feet at the shoulder, these gargantuan animals are voracious, omnivorous eating machines that are decimating ecosystems world wide. Gorehogs were first sighted in the lush wilderness surrounding the Chernobyl disaster, but soon spread outwards like a plauge.

As thier meat is highly prized for it's tenderness there exists a thriving economy of Gorehog hunters. Attempts to domesicate the massive creatures have thusfar failed.

Hecatonchires


The Hecatonchires were the offspring of Gaia in Greek myth. They were towering giants with 100 hands and immense strength. Because they were imprisoned by the Titan Chronus, they sided with the Olympians during the War of the Titans.
