    After all of my time on this forum, including the time before I made an account, I have never seen one monster creation thread. I've seen tons of item creation threads and myriads of card creation ones (mostly in feedback & suggestions, which is why I'm posting this here), but never a monster creation thread.
    Today, that will change.
    Presenting...
    TGHY71's Terrible Transfigurations!
    Monster making thread extraordinaire.

    If you look in the game files (on Steam version), you would see that the "queen" already has the name of "Guardian of Maelstroms" :)

    Doppelganger
    15 HP
    Deck Size 12
    3 Victory Points
    Default Move: Run
    2x Run
    2x Sorcerous Blast
    5x Shapeshift
    2x Invisibility
    1x Slippery
    • Shapeshift: (Emerald quality, Rare, Magic Arcane, Range 8)
    "Shapeshift into target character. Attach a 'Shapeshifted' Trait card to yourself, Duration 3."
    (Shapeshift: Replace your character model with that of the target character. Replace your deck, hand, max HP, current HP, default move and current attached cards with those of the target.)

    • Shapeshifted: (Emerald quality, Rare, Trait)
    "This card may not be replaced by other attached cards. When this card expires or you die when shapeshifted, you are no longer shapeshifted; return to your original form with your previous attributes."



    Doppelgangers would be present both on their own and with other more powerful monsters, in groups of up to three. When not-shapeshifted, their main tactic would be to mostly avoid combat while attempting to move into line of sight of either a powerful ally or enemy in order to shapeshift into them. When a Doppelganger shapeshifts into a monster, it adopts that monster's AI as well. As they are rather difficult to dispatch - transforming back into their natural forms if killed when shapeshifted instead of dying outright - they would appear in later levels of the campaign.

    Here at Aloyso Industries (or AI, as we like to call it), we love making things better. Weapons, robots, mystical crystals that nearly destroyed a whole bunch of stuff, you name it. Recently, we turned our eyes to Sprites. You know them, those little guys made of pure fire, ice, energy, you name it. But here at AI, we figured that if could put weapons and armor on one of them, we could make an incredible warrior! "Super fast, Unstoppable, and Pointy!" was how we sold the plan to the investors. Of course, due to them not having a corporeal body, we just decided to throw a bunch of knives and sharp metal into a Wind Sprite and call it a day. Speaking of which, could you clean up one of our labs for us? It's somehow acquired a large amount of bloodstains and cuts in the walls, and the research team isn't returning our calls to tell them to tidy their mess.

    Congratulations on making me remember

    It is said that these battle-priests gain their power of unrivalled swiftness and mobility directly from the gods. They are are a fearsome sight to behold in battle - whirling around the battlefield quicker than the human eye, distributing devastating hacks to their foes then vanishing as quickly as they appeared. They move as gracefully and as quickly as Elves, but are blessed with the raw power and confidence of Dwarves; one should take extreme caution when engaging these priests in close combat.

    Vlamona Thaumaturge

    Seven levels that each has a powerful demon character based on one of the seven deadly sins. I’m not going to write all the cards these characters have just the interesting ones.

    Sultan of Sloth:

    Demonic laziness
    Magic Unholy.
    Attach to target. You cannot play any cards. Duration 2 or until you take damage.
    Range 8.

    On the same level as the Sultan of Sloth would be some demons that have strong range 1 attacks. The Sultan would cast demonic laziness on the players and then the other demons would run in and hit them.

    Empress of Envy:

    Demonic Envy
    Magic Unholy
    Reveal all cards in targets hand. Select one of those cards and put it your hand.
    Range 8

    Lady of Lust:

    Love spell
    Magic Unholy
    Attach to target. The player who played this card controls this character as if it was their own. Duration 2. Range 8.

    Prince of Pride:

    Demonic taunt:

    Magic Unholy
    Attach to all alleys of target. You cannot play a card. You cannot be targeted. Duration 2. Range 6.
    “Are you strong enough to fight me on your own?”

    Viscount of Wrath

    Demonic Rage
    Magic Unholy
    Attach to all enemies. Frenzy 2. At the beginning of the round take 6 damage for every attack card in your hand. Duration 3.

    Illusion Burst
    Magic Arcane
    Your square becomes illusionary terrain. Burst 1.

    The Viscount of Wrath would have lots of teleport spell. He would cast demonic rage and then try to stay away from the players so that they suffered the consequences of the rage. He would also have some long range damage spells.

    Grand Duchess of Greed

    Illusionary Treasure
    Magic Unholy
    Target Square becomes Treasure Terrain. (If an enemy moves and it possible to end that move on a Treasure Terrain, that enemy must end the move on a Treasure Terrain.) Duration 3.

    This level would have some demons with strong range 1 attacks. They would come running and beat the players who are stuck on the treasure terrain.

    General of Gluttony

    Eat Creature
    Melee Piercing
    Kill target. Heal yourself 15. Create a Demonic Burp Card and put it in your hand. Range 1.

    Demonic Burp
    Projectile Sonic
    Cone. Damage 7. Range 5.

    This level would have lots of small demons that the General of Gluttony would eat.

    Everyone thought he was dead... but now he's back. Part-man, part-machine, massively skilled and geared with deadly technology, Alonzo the Mecha-Sniper will stop at nothing to wreak revenge on the adventuring party that nearly killed him.


    Alonzo Mk.2


    25 HP
    Deck Size 17
    3 Victory Points
    Draw: 3
    Default Move: Rocket Dash

    2x Escaping Run
    1x Quick Step
    1x Uncanny Dodge
    2x Bronzantium Plates
    1x Summon Spotter
    3x Laser Bolt
    2x Analyse Target
    8x Scope In

    AI: Alonzo Mk.2 would try to keep as
    far as possible from enemies, much the
    same as the original Alonzo the Sniper.
    Alonzo Mk. 2 try to stay in sight of enemies
    unless a Spotter Drone is in play, in which
    case he would just focus on getting in cover.
    ---------------


    Spotter Drone

    10 HP
    Deck Size 7
    0 Victory Points
    Draw: 1
    Default Move: Fly
    -

    2x Hover
    1x Slippery
    3x Fly
    1x Bronzantium Plates

    AI: Spotter Drone would try to keep out
    of melee range of enemies but still remain
    in their line of sight.
    ---------------
    Summon Spotter (Assist)
    Play Effect: 'Spawn a Spotter Drone in a random unoccupied adjacent square (max 2 Spotter Drones at a time).'
    Flavour Text: 'On his command, a small hovering machine flew down from the skies above to help locate his targets.'

    Analyse Target (Attack, Magic Laser)

    Play Effect: 'Unblockable. Reveal target's hand. Target discards all block and armor cards. Cantrip.'
    Flavour Text: 'I could see his robotic eye scanning my defences thoroughly, and suddenly I felt extremely vulnerable.'
    Scope In (Assist)
    Play Effect: 'You may not play this card if you have already moved this turn. Create a 'Scoped' card and attach it to target. Create a 'Laser Sniper Bolt' card and put it in your hand.'

    Scoped (Handicap)
    Flavour Text: 'Better get to cover, quick!'

    Laser Sniper Bolt (Attack, Magic Laser)
    Damage 20, Range 12
    Play Effect 1: 'Mandatory Action. Minor Erratic Damage. Hard to Block 2. This attack may target enemies in the line of sight of any allied Robotic Spotters, as well as your own line of sight. This attack may only target enemies with a 'Scoped' card attached to them. If there are no targets, discard this card, Cantrip.'
    Play Effect 2: 'When this card is played or discarded, discard all copies of 'Scoped' attached to enemies.'​
