Frayed Knights - Monster Names
 

If you want to know how Jay Barnson came up with "Juvenile Ceiling Lurkers" in Frayed Knights, head over for his latest update.
More information.

It's easy when you are a juvenile-minded, over-zealous and under-talented hack like me! :)

The "variants" thing is … Well, I found the (A)D&D varuants quite lame :

normal: Ghul
harder : Grul (reminds me of ("cruel")

(Note: This is the English "Ghoul" translated by someone into German-language editions of (A)D&D. Names taken from my memory, could thus be distorted.)

I thought : Didn't they have more creativety at hand ?

More variations on the Ghoul theme : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghoul_(…ns_%26_Dragons)

Besides, an imho still very good marketing thing is to let the fans decide the name of a monster … ;)
