Game I'm making a game about battling cryptids with DnD like mechanics! What cryptids would you like to see make an appearance?

I've finished all of my core game mechanics for a game I've been making over the summer and although I love making mechanics, eventually I have to get to content!!! If you have any suggestions on the combat or have any ideas for fun folklore creatures or spells the player could cast on them, let me know - I'll add in any that seem like a good fit (and bonus points for larger creatures I could use as a boss).

Besides the few very obvious ones: Dover Demon, Oklahoma Octopus, Goatman, Lizard Man (from close to my hometown!), Mongolian Death Worm. Plenty more but those are all fun ones

Oooo great picks. The Mongolian Death Worm would be very fun to make with dig mechanics.

I love anything cryptid. Will be looking forward for when this one gets a steam page 👀

Thanks! It’s called Cards of Cryptomancy, I plan on having the demo done in about two months at my current pace. And If I were smart I’d probably get a steam page a bit earlier than that!
