And now that (I think) I'm done with that huge list of requests, I'm moving on to Xthropes and were-Xs. I already have a fair number of ideas, but requests are always welcome.

[Sanctaphrax]

And with that, I'm out of thrope ideas. Before I move on to werecreatures, I want to make one really powerful and impressive thrope.

Any ideas?

[devonapple]

And with that, I'm out of thrope ideas. Before I move on to werecreatures, I want to make one really powerful and impressive thrope.

Any ideas?

A boar, or perhaps a bear (I think I tried that one).
Orangutan or gorilla?
Maybe a crocodile lycanthrope who is adept at wrestling.

[Sanctaphrax]

All good ideas, but not really what I'm looking for. I'd like to make something that stands head-and-shoulders above ordinary thropes. Like a dracothrope or something like that.

I think I'll make the crocothrope wrestler, but I'm not sure what would be a good condition for him to use his powers in.

And I still need a super-thrope idea of some kind.

Elephant therianthrope.

Maybe a dinothrope?  You could have a bunch of rednecks slavering and foaming as they run around on their tiptoes with their arms held out in front of them like birds.

"I have a big head... and little arms."
"Or a chain gun."

[jadecourtflunky]

Try going for a (whatever ant is in latin) queen with the ability to infect others with worker-ant thingies. Oh, and her powers work 24/7. Epic by sheer numbers.

[Sanctaphrax]

Thanks, guys. Those are great ideas.

I figure that the Formithrope Queen would be a fairly ordinary thrope with Master Dominator and leadership skills/stunts. I think I might stick with just Inhuman Recovery for physical powers.

The Tyrranothrope and Pachythrope also sound good, although they'll be quite similar to each other. Strength, Toughness, and Recovery with a stunt or two ought to cover it. I'm not sure about changing conditions, whether to give them Inhuman or Supernatural powers, and what stunts they should have.

By the way, I think that I'll be making an outsider-thrope to round out the list with something that isn't a real animal.
