Favorite Female Monster

Post » Mon Jan 04, 2010 3:30 pm

I've always been a svcker for female monsters in mythology and RPGs. Like succubi, mermaids, sirens, gorgons, fairies, etc.

Anyways out of these 4 female monsters in Oblivion, which one is your favorite?

I choose the Spriggan, because I think plant girls are just teh coolest shizzle ever. I love how they're guardians of nature who are half plant and half human and that they can summon bears to fight for them, and I like to think of them as servants of the Goddess Kynareth. Plus they remind me of my favorite villainess Poison Ivy from Batman. :D

Spider Daedra.

I love the animation they use for casting spells on themselves.

Spriggan. Once I was passing by a small deserted village, it was raining and storming heavily and I barely saw anything. A flash lighted up the area and I moved towards a villager I was able to spot due to sparely short moment of sight. The girl turned around, another flash lighted up the field and I was staring into the creepiest Spriggan face ever.

Doesn't sound that cary if told like that, but it was really weird in that moment.

Goblin Shamans? Really? *shudder*
I'd have to say spider daedra both for reasons already mentioned and the fact they remind me of the Drider in D&D

Spriggans.

When grouped with other enemies, they're more annoying than a group of spider daedra.

For example, I'd much rather fight 2-3 spider daedra and 2 Xivilai (sp?) than have to fight 2-3 Spriggans and 2 Willow O' Wisp (sp?)

It's not my health I'm worried about, I've got enough potions and magicka to be able to deal with that. It's the stat damage or drainage that worries me.

Elegant, graceful and it looks like they could give a nice back scratch too (when not trying to kill me).

Flame Atronachs.

If you were asking which was my favorite to kill, I'd go with the Spider Daedra. She and her little minion kick my ass.

I'll have to say Spriggan. There's something about this "summoning a bear to fight for her" that I can totally relate to. :D

I wish you could summon a Spriggan to fight for your character, that would be so cool! :D

I'll have to say spriggan as well.

Dunno why. Perhaps it takes one to hunt one?

Illusion has Command Creature, and that works very well to essentially "summon" a Spriggan to fight for you... gotta find one first, though. :)

I love all the female Atronachs (Flame, Poison, Arcane). On the other hand, they did a very good job animating the Spider Daedra. Not sure if the speed up that happens in my game happens to other people, but in my game, it's realy impressive when the Spider Daedra are moving at high speed (until I stop them, of course... nasty li'l me...) :P

Spider Daedra for sure, they're pretty cool, with their human bodies on eight legs... I actually hate Spriggans, because they're so annoying! :P

"Why do Spriggans drop Taproot?"

"Because any man would Tap that Root" :hubbahubba:

Oh yes... I was going to reply to the person who mentioned fighting Spriggans + Will 'o' Wisps... I mean, really, just Will 'o' Wisps alone are annoying! :) They're probably the most wrong-leveled creature in the entire game.

How do you mean 'wrong-leveled?' Do you mean they appear too early?

I wonder why it is all the Goblin Shamans are female, and that there's only one in each tribe? I know Shamans are suppose to be like the leaders of each tribe, maybe they're like a Queen Ant and help populate the entire tribe? Kind of makes you wonder huh? ^_^

*groan*

I don't know that I have a favourite as such, but flame atronachs are by far the least annoying of the lot, so I'll go with them.
