The (not really) Official Endgame Summon Thread!

Responses to jim's suggestions:

Balrog - E/F - demon, flying, fear, heat aura

I guess demons are pretty well covered already by blood though. Not sure we should be adding more demons unless there's a specific reason to.

Ettin - E - Ambi, extra head slot
Cockatrice - E/F - Petrify, flying

These are cool, but already covered by cross breeding. Maybe we could make different versions of them.

Treant - N - mobile treelord, summon ally: vine ogre

I'm quite keen on this one. Graphics will be tricky, but doable.

Sasquatch - A/N - trample, cold aura

Is that just a yeti?

Olm - W/E - mind blast, enslave mind

Nice.

Gorgon - E/N - (really, just like the pretender)

Maybe best kept as a pretender? Just thinking it is quite unique and powerful.

Shishi - A - flying, standard, lightning

What's one of these then? I can only find references to stone lions.

Much of sector24's mythology is beyond me (although this is exactly the kind of thing which will make for a good mod).

Cerberus sounds interesting. Would he be unique? Hard to imagine a dog big enough to be useful, even if he does have three heads.

I like the sound of a Ziz, even though I'm not clear what they are. False-Zizing the Ziz and Zizzing a new Ziz sounds ideal.

Like sector24 I personally am not so keen on adding non-mythological creatures like the beholder or sandworm, being as this is an addition to the (mythological) base game rather than a mod nation. As part of a mod nation those things are obviously pretty cool. Of course this is just a matter of personal taste.
