Make Yourself a Monster

There's a meme going around about making yourself into a monster in your preferred system. My posting name, Gregor LeBlaque, doesn't really lend itself to monsterness. However, Gregor was my first D&D 3e PC, so I could easily make him a usable 4e NPC "monster". I think Gregor made it to around level 8 or 9 in 3e, so I'll do an 8th level NPC.

Gregor LeBlaque

Gregor is a rogue who thinks himself far more charming than he really is. He speaks with an outrageous French accent and possesses a strange (for a human) attraction to dwarven women.

Gregor's Tactics

Gregor prefers to keep moving on the battlefield, trying to gain combat advantage before striking.

Now as for my wife and illustrator, ChaoticBlackSheep, monsterness is a lot easier. In fact, in 3e we discussed combining three elements from Necromancer Games' Tome of Horrors: The stats for sheep, the dire template, and the beast of chaos template. I'm pretty sure the idea provided the seed for her username. The really funny part is the frightful presence granted by the beast of chaos template: "When the beast of chaos makes sound common to its animal type, creatures must succeed at a Will save or become shaken." Fear the dire sheep of chaos and its bleat of DOOM!

Chaotic Black Sheep

This dire sheep warped by the elemental chaos is a terrifying creature feared by all who hear its terrifying bleat of doom.

Chaotic Black Sheep's Tactics

The dire sheep of chaos wades mindlessly into battle, biting viciously. Once more then three enemies are in range or it becomes bloodied, it unleashes its bleat of doom.

It is left as an exercise for the reader to determine what other creatures would hang around either of these two.
