they are flumphs, silly!

an iconic D&D monster from the fiend folio and  monster manual 2. they have the distinction of being the only Lawful Good monster in the former and this benevolence combined with their odd appearance and...ineffectual stat block have earned them a seat of prominence at the "worst D&D monsters of all time" table. they do have a loyal and vocal following of fans (me, for example) who view their bizarre and contradictory nature as the best of D&D .

 

despite their notoriety they are far from obscure and are an oft discussed aberration: they are a long running gag in the (awesome) web comic "order of the stick," are statted for S&W and pathfinder in the Tome of Horrors, and recently were featured in the pathfinder book "misfit monsters redeemed." in that book they seek to warn sentients of the dangers posed by the lovecraftian horrors from deep space.

 

give 'em a google, they are fun little guys.

I can imagine those little mouths squeaking "Do not be afraid! We are friends! Call on us in your time of need, noble sentient!".

 

And the player snorting in derision.

 

Should be pretty simple to make 'em regret that sentiment; you don't need a fantastic stat line to drop a rock from great height.

heh, they do look like the yip yips!

 

i had actually just been thinking about the modrons. i'll probably end up doing a few for my personal collection but i doubt there is enough demand for them on the market to warrant having them produced.

 

FYI, i made some revisions to the tentacles on the right flumph  and i'll probably share those in a bit with a pic of the "face." nothing will send you back to  editing like staring at "final" pics.....
