It is certainly not allowed to mime type! Terrible thing too!

@jwm--- well some monsters could be from Version 2, which was used back in the 70's, such as that rat with the dental problem

@MA Well dont be ashamed if it was an ordinary Rakshasa, they arent easy to deal with at all unless youre a high level.

@Vkm I didnt know Mimes were regarded seperately on forums

Well the hint I gave tells you that Raksasha can be killed instantly with a blessed crossbow bolt, all you have to do is hit it and it dies.

Ah yes, those are readily available at Butch the Smithy's Shoppe

@Tybaltus - yep those are the creatures I know.

H-here, b-bunny, bunny, bunny...

 

Thanks to Popo I remembered that I can always just use IE.

That looks like a gitzerai, I believe.   Never seen one in a game, but I recognize it from my brother's monster manuel when it was here.

But theres already a monster up for question...that wyrm-like thing.  But I havent seen a reply from Undertow in the last 24 hours.

I see this race is *known* to you Tybaltus. It is of the people, it is Githzerai. I am fairly confident that I am correct in what "That wyrm-like thing" is.

Eh?  Well let me double check your worm answer, and if its a match, then I guess we'll proceed as usual.

As far as my answer, Im not gonna say Im familiar with the creature/race at all.  I dont even know its alignment, I just know of it, and know its general appearance.  It really helped you used an image that was also used in the monster manual book that my brother had too, thus making that connection in my brain.  I was looking for "Githyanki" and came across that friendly looking fellow

And it is correct to say a race as "a something or rather"  You can say "its human" or "its a human" and so on.

Wait, you really don't remember much about Githzerai? I *know* you loved Torment, you do *know* that Dak'kan is Githzerai, don't you? Dak'kan is like one of the coolest characters in that in my opinion, esp if you play a high int, high wis mage and do that whole unlocking the Unbroken Circle of Zirthamon with Dak'kan and learn about his past and help him come to *know* himself.

The Githzerai and the Githyanki where once the same people but do to a conflict among the race in which the ones who become the Githyanki insisted on genocide of their former masters the Illithids (Mindflayers). Zerthimon made the pronouncment that there cannot be two skies and thus the people split and have been bitter enemies ever since.

OK, Ive confirmed that our short bearded friend with goggles is right.   The Khython Slaymaster is that ugly worm demon.  Man, thats impressive.  There are hardly any images out there of this creature.

Yes, I'm not sure if I should be proud of my knowledge or embarased.

Torment?  I never played Torment.  You must be confusing me with someone else     All those names look like gibberish to me

---

Hrm...thats interesting.  But why did the Githzerai not want the genocide of the Illithids?

And why do they look so vastly different?  Githyanki are odd, grey and pointy like creatures, while the Githzerai are more flowing, haunting and dark.

EDIT-Wait....I can see the resemblance.  Its just there was a fixed image in my mind, and it wasnt fitting both races easily.

I could of sworn that you played and loved Planescape: Torment...

As for the Githzerai not wanting to kill all the Illithids, Zerthimon and the ones who chose to follow him where more interested in establishing themselves as a people and not hunting down Illithids, they had just rebelled from the Illithids after spending that last few centuries as slaves.

As for the difference in appearance, They live in Limbo and other places in the planes, such as Sigil (where Torment takes place). These are areas where belief and will power can shape reality, since Githzerai are Lawful Neutral for the most part and Githyanki are Lawful Evil for the most part, the Githyanki changed in appearance to reflect their nature.

Well you like these D&D computer games right, find yourself a copy of Planescape Torment. It is like a Billion times better than Baldur's Gate or Icewind Dale, and it has a truely awesome story with amazing NPCs, great voice acting, and a moveing sound track.

Sorry, dude.  Though I know how much youve recommended it.  (This time I remember! )

Heh, it seems the DnD world could have an indepth story on about any race.  I guess thats one reason why its so popular.
