Those are great ideas!

I was worried that they were too specific to source material that I wasn't using*, but little tweaks like that make them just right.

Apart from the classic shaggy ones, what other monsters would you associate with a horrific take on the Great God Pan? Or could result from a surge of life that comes from a place where no life should be?

Do you have ideas for similar twists for more of these monsters? Or using the stats of something from Monster Hunters: Enemies, with a new origin and skin?

*And I've already got quite a bit in the blender, so thematic consistency will have to receive some nods.
