Alright /tg/ I've hit a wall and need some help. I'm writing a bestiary for a setting I'm creating and I need some ideas. Looking for anything and everything, from fairytale to pseudo realistic, give me some of the weirdest, most dangerous, and craziest beasts you can come up with.

I once had a species of giant spiders that would transform into arachne if they ever ate a person.
Another time, I had a non-hostile slime creature that was completely indestructible. It gained energy (and pleasure) from force exerted upon it. They weren't dangerous things. They could easily be domesticated and used to make safe falls.

Absolutely perfect, thanks anon. How did transforming affect the spiders? Did they become a separate race or did they still mingle among the arachnids?

They were the same race. All of an arachne's children would be normal giant spiders. So there'd be one arachne looking over a family of regular spiders. By the time a spider is big and dangerous enough to eat a person and become an arachne itself, it will have left the nest, so there wouldn't really ever be two arachne in one place.
Giants. In old tales Giants were bitch ass wizards who can turn princess into stone.
Ghouls are mutated hominids controlled and warped by a strain of sentient bacteria that grows stronger and more intelligent with each thrall under their control.

Awesome man, thanks a ton that's really neat.

Curmudgeonly Giant wizards sounds bitching

And this is fantastic. How do you suppose an earlier 1800's pseudo scientist explain that? Something to do with bad humours I guess? Sounds appropriately creepy though, much appreciated

Acid crapping pigeons. They're not even hostile, they just fly around and occasionally drop their dangerous shit. Walk through areas infested with them at your own risk.

Is this due to their diet or just a biproduct of their extremely acidic digestive tract?

Just blame it on the plague of Red Rot

Fucking hivemind zombie monkey people, sounds like a plan.
Also does anyone have any ideas for legend-esque monsters? I've got a sort of Chimera that manifests itself as nature's fury. They're always a mash up of different creatures, dependent on region. Basically when the civilized races starts mass killing a species, destroying the shit out of a land, or anything similar Mother Nature creates Chimeras. Their sole objective is to rip and tear and fuck shit up. Anything like that, all I can come up with is Griffins and Dragons and possibly unicorns.
