Cosmo's Monsters I

     This is going to be me writing out some monsters that may or may not show up in my games. Some of them are monsters that my players know well and absolutely despise (in a rivalry way) and others might be monsters that exist but that they've avoided somehow. I am rather free-form in my monster creation statistics; players rarely (if ever) see these statistics, so I almost never actually take the time to write them up with traits and all that, just with "this is how it works" statistics.

Ojibid

    Ojibids are monsters that use their telepathic powers to lure in humanoids to devour them. They also can attack twice in one turn and possess powers that allow them to Counter Spells on a 12-. They generally appear in groups of 1 to 3 (1d3) and dwell in caverns, abandoned ruins, or underneath bridges. They hibernate in the winter and generally are most active in the spring and fall.

 

Ojibid ST 16; DX 12; IQ 11; HT 12 HP 16; FP 12. Speed 6; Move 9. Notes: Blink-25 & Command-25. Telepathy, 30 yds. Claw. SL 16, 1d+2 cut. Parry 11. Reach C, 1. Devour. SL 16, spec. Reach C. Counter Spell. SL 12, spec. Range 20.* *: On a success, target's spell fails. Counts as a Blocking spell.

Troll

    Trolls are monsters that, unlike most would expect, are totally immune to magic and iron! They are fearsome foes that, unless prepared for, tend to become impossible to defeat foes. Some trolls are even known to reflect magic! They are notably known to be weak to sunlight, which kills them rapidly. Trolls are easily outran, however, and tend to be easy-to-kill foes.
