Media monsters thread.

[Agrippa]

I've noticed that the new Goblinoid Games site is sorely lacking a monster thread for Mutant Future. I have a problem with that. So to rectify this error I'm starting my own thread. Take any monster from fiction, whether a whole species or a unique individual, and try to stat it up it using MF rules and if you feel like mix in some Rules Cyclopedia or LL rules too. All you need are a decent picture, some stats, a basic description and where it comes from. If anyone needs help it's okay to ask. Now I'll start with a beastie of my own. By the way I'm using an expanded version of Malcadon's Strength bonus damage house rules. There's no need to feel like you have to yourselves.

P.S. Okay then two of them.

Diet, Habitat and behavior
At around 3'04" in length and weighing 106 lbs, absols are a race of large sapient felines that dwell in remote mountain passes and trail and feed off of smaller non-sapient mammals. Being semi-social they will at times congrate in groups of up to 20 adults in a mile radius. Having no real group hierarchy absols simply band together when necessary or more likely on sheer whim. With that said they almost always form these temporary groups out of the same individuals and mate for life. When hunting or defending fellow packmates absols use their innate cunning and resourcefullness to full advantage, occasionally taking out prey animals four times their size. Not only can these large wildcats think, they can reason. But what makes them truly special is their ability to predict with 100% accuracy all sorts of natural disasters. More than this is they do with this knowledge. Absols will actually walk into human settlement lands to warn the inhabitants of the oncoming catastrophy, hoping that they'll evacuate, saving themselves and their children. Sadly, too often these noble creatures' warnings are ignored and they're later persecuted as perpetraitors of the tragedy in question. Yet they still warn us and attempt to guide lost humans back to their own kind.

Absols come from the Pokemon franchise.

Diet, habitat and behaviour
Lightning rats are mutant rodents possessing human intelligence if not the ability to speak. Wild lightning rats often travel in packs of up to 24 adults, searching for berries and other plants for food. While they have traditionally made their homes in forests these large rodents have begun moving into human settlements and power plants obviously drawn by the electricity they generate. These lighting rats frequently enter human residences and farms in the search for food. While they often times came into conflict with humans, lightning rats have developed a symbiotic relationship with us. We give them food and shelter in return for their protection and suplementing our power plants.


New Mutation: Ranged Paralysis
Once every three rounds the mutant can paralyze one enemy per MSmod within a range of MSx5 feet if they fail a Save vs. Stun. The paralysis lasts for 2d4 rounds.
