ENEMY SUBMARINE SPOTTED

The winners have been announced and showcased in today's WTF, D&D!?



While working on the latest installment of WTF, D&D!? with my good buddy Steve we happened upon a series of random tables in the back of the Rifts Japan book. The supposed purpose of these tables was to randomly generate some sort of Japanese demon called an "Oni." Steve loves random tables and he immediately saw the potential for a fun activity for the forums.

The contest is simple. Using a random number generator go through the tables and create a demon, then create a visual rendering of this demon and write a brief history or background (a couple sentences to a couple paragraphs). Serious efforts and the genuinely funny will receive the greatest consideration.

Steve and I will then review these entries in an upcoming installment of WTF, D&D!? At that time we will also award prizes and decide on winners.




FABULOUS PRIZES


I will be giving away three autographed copies of my new book, Your Next-Door Neighbor is a Dragon, Steve has sent me his first edition copy of the D&D Monster Manual to give away, and in the bigger-is-better spirit of Rifts, the grand prize includes signed copies of both of my books, a copy of the greatest novel ever written, a $50 Amazon Gift Card, and this:




That's right, a brand new and totally awesome Rifts t-shirt straight from Palladium. And not just some lame large t-shirt. Not some pussy rear end XL t-shirt. Not some jabroni XXL t-shirt. Not a loser XXXL shirt. This is a XXXXL t-shirt! FOUR Xs of t-shirt to show your support for Rifts. If you wish we will even allow you to substitute for this: The Rifts Minion XXXXXL t-shirt. Palladium's Riftiest t-shirt! FIVE unstoppable Xs of t-shirt to blow minds.



ENTRY RULES


Your entry should consist of your drawing (or sculpture, painting, 3D rendering, etc) of your Oni, the numbers you rolled to generate it, and a brief background or history of your monster. NAME YOUR MONSTER. Un-named monsters will be named by Steve.

All entries must be posted in this thread on or before the 21st of August. Winners will be determined on August 27th. Themes that include summer fun, babes and/or boobs, and barbarians will probably receive bonus attention from Steve. I will remain impartial, but may award a bonus if you imitate old school RPG artists like Erol Otus or Kevin Siembieda.

International entries are accepted as long as you live somewhere that is not currently being invaded by the United States or our proxies. We cannot allow this shirt to fall into the hands of our enemy.

You may enter as many times as you like, but each entry must be posted by itself and not all in one post.

This is going to be great on no less than three levels:

1) Hilariously stupid table results.
2) Hilariously bizarre art.
3) Hilariously crazy legal threats when that hack catches wind of this.

Quick question- what the gently caress does "Animal-like; hover or like bear" mean? Hovering bears?

Yup. Roll 1d100, compare it to the chart, rinse and repeat another eight times down the list.

Isn't old-school gaming fun?!

From what I know of the guys over at Palladium, they probably would have been ok with all of this if it hadn't been referred to it as a Dungeons & Dragons contest. It's something of a sore point with them.

Oh man. I'm so doing this. Anyone want to share what they got already? Here's mine:

23 = broad, muscular human
5 = boar's head
88 = ratlike nose
19 = red/whatever almond shaped eyes
69 = canine like mouth/teeth
57 = monkey-like, three finger+thumb hands
51 = skeletal, two toed clawed feet
71 = boils and scabs

I'm thinking of making this one a woman, it will be wonderfully grotesque. Especially cause of the boils/scabs.

Kusai-Doubutsu



Kusai-Doubutsu is considered a lesser Oni only because he is shunned by all Greater Oni due to his horrible stench. Emitting a scent somewhere between Indian food and burning truck tires perpetually, Kusai-Doubutsu is nearly impossible to approach. His actual bite is more likely to cause bacterial infection than draw blood, however his powerful claws are capable of rending flesh at blinding speeds. Having no contact from other Oni has driven Kusai-Doubutsu insane from loneliness, and his madness has driven him to bloodthirsty attacks against any human nearing him. Since his aroma repels all things spiritual and living, no human ever actually nears him, driving his madness further. He is at any time capable of gating in 10-100 foul gaseous lesser Oni and can direct them to pursue any target, causing intense nausea. Kusai-Doubutsu is a strict vegetarian, despite his desire to destroy living beings. He subsists solely on raw cabbage which he diligently farms himself.

All hail Thor...the THUNDER GOD!

All right, here we go. First, here's what I rolled up:

General Body Shape
85-Bird; barrel chested, broad upper body, narrow lower abdomen, short thick neck.

Oni Head Shape
29-Human; no horror factor bonus.

Oni Nose
55-Bird nose; can be shaped like a hawk or sparrow.

Oni Mouth
64-Canine-like mouth and short muzzle filled with canine teeth and fangs. 3D6 M.D.

Oni Arms & Hands
25-A pair of large, oversized, muscular arms (3D6 M.D.) and a third, smaller arm with two clawed fingers and a thumb (2D6 M.D.; +1 attack per melee round).

Other Features

Skin Color
29-Light or Dark Red

Unfortunately, I couldn't draw a straight line with a ruler and a hundred pencils, but I couldn't pass up how awesome this thread is going to get, so here's my photoshopped submission:



After I colored him, I decided I had to name him Dr. Oniberg, as sad as that is. Obviously, he uses his huge, muscley arms for showing off to the ladies and his tiny, vestigal third arm to hold snacks or possibly claw-friendly sodas. I can't imagine he has a whole lot of mobility with his oddly-shaped legs, but he's probably more used to just posing anyway.

I was going to put him in a background, but because he's just kinda standing there, it looked really terrible for each of the five or so that I tried, haha. So there he is, my poor, unthreatening Japanese demon.

Rokishi Mobitsura, a samurai from the village of Ochiwa on the southern coast, held his katana Yaoi-yuri low. His other hand gently brushed along the wet, glowing fungi on the stone wall of the cave as he slowly - cautiously - forged deeper below the surface. He had shed his armor hours ago; in the sweltering heat, anything more than his blade and some water would be too much to bear. Wiping his brow, he noticed soot on his palm, and the air invoked a familiar odor: sulfur.

Peering around the corner into a wide cavern, Rokishi finally laid his eyes on the beast. Known as Surbiartoshi, this demon was just what he expected. A mishmash of humanoid and animal features, Surbiartoshi was a powerful oni of legend. Many had fallen to its sharp claws and many tiny teeth.

Looking up and down the monster, he sensed no apparent weakness. From the demon's broad, muscular body, up to its wild boar-shaped head, and its not so prominent flat ape nose, thin mouth, and jade-colored bird eyes, to its furry goat legs, nothing suggested Rokishi's task would be simple. Surbiartoshi's jade-tinted skin was as thick as the samurai armor left behind those many hours ago.

As the samurai crept forward, the beast's back to him, he raised Yaoi-yuri slowly, gripping it tightly with both hands. With one clean swipe, the blade whistled through the air, piercing deep into the oni's armored flesh. The demon's roar made the cavern tremble, and knocked the hero to his knees. Surbiartoshi turned to face him.

"What bids this mortal to become a sacrifice upon the altar of despair?" the demon bellowed.

"I have come to avenge my ravished sister, my devoured parents, and the remains of MY GIRLFRIEND!" Rokishi glared up into the eyes of the emotionless demon.

Surbiartoshi raised its arms above its head, claws glistening with the blood of an unseen, previous victim, flicking its tiny snakelike tongue into the face of the samurai, tasting his sweat. Then suddenly, before any normal being could detect the movement, Rokishi was held aloft in the air, suspended by two monstrous arms, and three claws each, piercing deep into his chest. Slowly, the beast began to devour the warrior alive, tearing off strips of skin with its tiny teeth.

His blood forming a glistening pool on the blackened ground below him, Rokishi cried in despair. He would never avenge his loved ones, and instead would join them in the realm of death as yet another victim of the oni, Surbiartoshi - Surodoi Hebi Saru Tori Inoshishi.

Hark! From the depths of the underworld comes the most handsome of all demons; the fearsome Robert. With the speed of several children, he scours the land for maidens to woo with his thorough knowledge of myth and legend.
Hiding in the dankest shadows of the dankest shops, Robert lies in wait for his unsuspecting prey. When a potential victim appears, he creeps from the shadows and recites the magical incantation "do you like Inuyasha?" binding his prey in place for 1d4 turns.
The only way to defeat Robert is to turn his abilities on himself. Question his knowledge and he will speak for hours, charming himself into delirium. Few manage to get this far however, as Robert is wily in his methods and seduction is all but assured.

Prodigiously unprofound



Dog'on!

Snail god of the depths. The hideous beast not quite olde enough to be a Great Old One. His followers are known to frequent tomato gardens and shun salt.

Bio: Dog'on is the younger brother of the ancient demon god Dagon. Like his brother, Dog'on has been known to grant favor to cults presenting him with live sacrifice. Unfortunately, Dog'on does not provide a rich harvest of fish, but snails. Thus, he has quickly fallen out of favor among the more selective dark cults in New England. Dog'on is not an Old One like his older brother, or a Young One like their younger brother Dig'in, but is instead part of the loosely grouped pantheon known as Middle Ones. Dog'on has therefore developed some esteem issues over the aeons, and is less likely to horrify and terrorize the mortal world than his siblings. On most Friday nights, he slithers around in his lonely, cavernous abode, working on his art.

Rolls: General Body Shape: 38
Oni Head Shape: 72, +4 horror factor.
Oni Nose: 47
Oni Eyes: 83 (supplemental roll: 23)
Oni Mouth: 92, 1D4 M.D. from a bite.
Oni Arms & Hands: 66, 2D4 M.D.
Oni Legs: 92, 3D6 speed attribute.
Other Features: 16, 1D4 M.D. from head butts.

Poets have been mysteriously silent on the subject of cheese.

I am not an artist and I am really terrible at drawing.

However, I do enjoy a fine spreadsheet.

So, I put this one together on OpenOffice Calc that if you CTRL+SHIFT+F9 it, will automatically generate the d100 roll and tell you which thing it corresponds to.

It looks like this

Click here for the full 827x595 image.


You can get it from this MediaFire link if you like.

You can generate lots of combinations until you find one you think you can brig to life most effectively.

Edit: Link removed for taking the fun out of what is supposed to be a "random" process. Can I have my taquito back now? Please?
Just a little sour cream, too.

WAEE!

Fotz, The: Bastral Wanderer

60- skeletal/gaunt body
90- neanderthal head
49- large, flat nose
50- small eyes
61- canine mouth
79- 5 arms of equal size
57- skeletal legs, 2 toed clawed feet
56- hairy body
51- jade green



The Fotz is a creature from the Bastral plane. The Fotz prefers to live in caves, and subsists mostly on bird spittle nests-- these he collects with great efficacy, oweing to his many arms. One of his arms is forever tasked with holding onto his head, which would otherwise flop helplessly from his cruelly atrophied neck.

The Fotz lives a sedentary life, tending to stand in place and stare at walls until adventurers enter his draw distance.

Every other day or so, the Fotz will lay an enormous and glittering egg. Adventurers, upon opening such an egg, will discover a putrid turd (roll d10 for value).

Necrogobian Cheeseflayer

75 - Toadlike
60 - Fish head
89 - Rat nose
62 - Bird eyes
71 - Large flabby lips and crooked flat teeth
6 - Human arms
57 - Skeletal legs ending in two toes
9 - Tiny scales on skin
40 - Fiery red




The necrogobian cheeseflayer is a type of lower demon given to strange appetites and complete lapses of self-control. Easily summoned through simple incantation without need for ceremony or occult materials, it is known in some circles as "the accidental oni" because the two-syllable summoning spell is occasionally pronounced without intention during particularly powerful sneezes. The necrogobian cheeseflayer eats only necrogobian cheese, which it makes with a combination of its own gelatinous breastmilk and the souls of its victims.

70 broad ape nose
67 jaded bird eyes
89 toad mouth
79 5 arms
78 human feet, clawed toes
42 bushy eyebrows and beard
14 redish brown skin

Der Katzen von Nippon lives in the neo-FujiYama region where he climbs mountains to befriend the local insectoid population, who he will later feast on. Der Katzen von Nippon is really super strong, like you wouldn't believe. He works out all day, lifting boulders, and squashing insectoids. He especially enjoys working out his groinal arm. His girlfriend is Fraulein Boobenmeister, who has 5 boobs, one for each hand.
Der Katzen von Nippon attacks when ever someone makes mention of his extreme swoleness, or makes fun of his lack of reproductive organs. He is impervious to any sword but the katana, and he can see when ninjas are attacking, so don't even try to sneak up on him.

The Cadaverous Gastropod loves stealing girls from other beach dwellers, especially from barbarians.

Nethwelter

Nethwelter is never lonely. He has been with the mountains as long as they've existed and made his home within their many caverns. He lives with the moss and the fungi, unable to relate to any other life form. The few times where civilization has attempted to croak in on the mountain, little remains after he wakes from his slumber. His long and heavy body slithers to whatever lights his burning eyes see, or wherever the scent of blood drags him, bringing chaos and destruction in it's wake. His thin, grim arms possess the strength to rip a cow in half, and his claws cut through rock.

Once every ten year the Nethwelter heads out away from the mountain to find himself a mate. Sometimes it's a sheep, a tortoise or a lion and other times he goes to find human females, whatever his taste is that particular year. His spawn are always horrible, but thankfully rarely survive. It is said that whoever eats the flesh of one of his children will always be able to feel the Nethwelter. All who do lose their minds eventually.

I was tempted to fudge my rolls to get the most "human" option on every trait. Then write up a back ground about how my demon is all emo because he just looks like a normal dude, so nobody takes him seriously and the other demons laugh and call him names. Then I remembered that I have no artistic skill, and can't actually draw a human-looking human.

The Roish is a beach-dwelling creatre that spends it's life in the seas until it matures into an adult. This can take centuries. Near the waning years of it's life, it constantly secretes an oily substance that keeps it's body a glistening tan and smells vaguely of coconuts.

It's mating ritual consists of a variety of showy poses, the consumption of special juices, and high-fiving it's bros.
