I am not an expert on German myths, but ... a casual search tells me that there was a fair amount of overlap between German myths and Scandinavian myths. Trolls, giants, goblins, etcetera....

White Women could be a fun (and powerful!) caster summon.

Generally, I'd say just Google "german mythical creatures" and look for inspiration. The hardest part would be avoiding the overlap with the stuff that's already part of Jotunheim, Vanheim, and Helheim....

Alternately, you could opt for supernatural (and super-sized) versions of natural creatures. For example: EA Ulm already has bears. Well, how about The Black Bear of Irminsul? Super-tough, regenerating, berserking, fear-inducing Killer Bear! Nearly any European wildlife could be super-sized. Killer Wolves! Killer Moose! (Okay, maybe not the moose....)

Another idea: How about a Huntmaster summon (like a Sleeper, only a bit scarier) who domsummons Uber-Hounds as part of his hunting pack?

If you'd like, I could even try to peck out a bit of the code for you. I don't have any shortage of ideas, and I'm willing to put some time into those ideas. I do lack the artistic SKEELZ for graphics.....

On the other hand, this is your mod, and I don't want to intrude.
