What Creatures Would You Like In SKYRIM

Post » Sat Feb 19, 2011 9:08 am

Hi this topic is just to talk about what Creatures you would like to see in SKYRIM.

Personal I would like to see Gryphons at the top of a mountain and at the very top of the mountain there is a King/Queen Gryphon that you can ride.
Also i would like to see a Frost Giant that breaths frost that freezes you for like 5 second this would be a boss so there would only be one of them.
Also it would be cool to see Karstaag and Grahl from Morrowind Bloodmoon in Skyrim.

Ogrim
Winged Twilights
Fire Atronachs of increasing flame intensity up to blue and different Gender forms of each
Better StormAtronachs not some whirling rocks
Golems, Golem elementals
Ice Antronachs of differeing Genders
Antronach specific Weapons
Mobiles ghosts, not the slow spell tossers in Oblivion but ones that phase in and out, smack you upside the head writhing the screen in a spectral effect noting the spiritual damage just incurred :D.
Flying enemies BEYOND Dragons with just as effective battle movements and differing from creature to Creature.

I want to see creatures that take advantage of the flight the devs have worked on for the dragons. No more of this hovering stuff :)
Creatures like the Winged Twilights and Daedra Seducers! Even Imps and Harpys.

We have Khajiit, Dweamer artifacts, and dogs.
I'd like a straw golem to go with this.. and a bunch of flying scamps.

I'd like something new, or at least not often shown or forgotten.

MOAR IMPS. That is all that I want from old games besides anything in now. My favorite creature by far.

Personally, I like to see more variation of fantasy monsters, like these:

  • semi-flying creatures that climb to high places and glide toward their target, but they have to land in order to fight.
  • monsters that jump toward the target from afar, and try to impale them with their single long horns.
  • monsters that dwell under the earth and jump out in the front of the target to attack, they would mark the earth as they move under it, but are untouchable until they jump out.
  • monsters that as a group surround their target but try to keep their distance and throw acid spits at the target and would scatter away if attacked.
  • monsters that attach themselves to the the ceilings of caves or dungeons and drop down on their target to attack.
  • monsters that run on the water surface, but if they stop, they would sink.
  • monsters that dwell in the water or slime areas, but jump out of them to the shore to attack and then slither back into the water or slime.
  • giant serpents that svck the air in a way that pulls their target toward them.
  • giant birds that pick up nearby cattle and drop them over the head of the target.
  • monsters that when whacked enough, they would explode like poisonous or sticky bombs.
  • monsters that when they want to retreat, they would bloat like a ball and get thrown away with the first hit.

I also like to see different variation of the same monsters, like:

  • in Morrowind, we had netches, so let's have netches that float above their targets and drop a finite amount of parasite creatures that would attack their targets, then they would flee or attack themselves.
  • why not have cliff-races that dive toward their target for a charging hit, then try to fly away and retry that dive, but attack with their beaks and talons of there was no time for that.
  • let's have ogres or trolls that pick up items from the ground and throw them toward their targets, if they have a height advantage to their targets.
  • or we can have gargantuan ogres that would try to stomp on their targets, or grab them and tear them apart or throw them away, and so on...
  • how about kwama foragers that leave a slippery or poisonous trail of goo.
  • a Morrowind mod made ghosts that charged screeching toward their targets and vanished through them.
  • we can have ghosts that appear through cracks on the ground or walls as a mist that gradually takes the shape of a ghost, those can be very dangerous and high level, but give the players time to think about retreat or a good attack tactic, as they take shape.
  • this variation can show itself better in the behavior of humanoid attackers, like different group attack tactics, and the like.

I'd like to see more unusual fantasy type creatures in addition to the more normal creatures like wolves and bears and such. Morrowind had many more unusual fantasy creatures, and virtually no realistic creatures whereas Oblivion had mostly normal creatures and sort of stereotypical fantasy creatures (imps, trolls, minotaurs).

So, more interesting new creatures in addition to the normal everyday variety.

More monsters that display ornate and blatant use of magic at all times. Energy pulsing in their body, spell use, summoning combined with animations/emotes that show them doing this with their arms, claws, digits.... Fire in their eyes, fire on their swords, pre-magic casting animations if humanoid, if they want to breathe fire or something, animations of them casting their head back to really blast you when they come back down.....

I want monsters to use more tactics. Maybe they freeze you in place, then get behind you and laugh hideously as they pelt you where you can't see what's happening, or push you over and kick you down the hill. Or maybe threw a Bolus at your legs and cause you to get tied up and if you try to run, you fall over, and they laugh at you while they're kicking you in the head. More reaction from monsters about what they're doing to you, as if they enjoy hurting you, so it can make your feel angrier at them and want revenge. Big trolls should get a real laugh out of splitting open your skull, maybe even point at you and say "Mmm, dinner..." to taunt you. I'd like to see some monster having layed down traps in the soil that only they know about. They avoid the places where the traps are, but if you walk there, a spike shoots ouf the ground and nails you good. Or maybe they you are winning, so the troll runs away and you lose him. But like 3 days later, he returns with some troll buddies and says "Amember me? Now jyou me dinner hahahaha!"

I would love to see some TSR-like Hell-hounds, big dogs that can breathe fire like dragons. Or big wild cats that seem to have nine forepaws when fighting you, because they are scratching so fast you can't see their arms clearly, and they have huge snakes growing from their shoulders that can also bite you, and poison you.

I would love to see some Yaun-Ti style monsters, whose lower body and face is of a huge serpent but whose torso is humanoid, with big arms who tips end in further snakes, meaning when they grip a sword they're gripping it with their giant snake fangs, which would look very scary and dangerous.

Some zombies that pretend to walk slowly but who suddenly get very fast when you get within close range, scaring the heck out of you with two-three attacks per your one attack.

Some undead Liches with flaming eyes and who seem to levitate at all times on pillers of lightning and around whom clouds of magic brew at all times.

I would love to be killing a wolf and suddenly as it dies, a spell forms over it and when the spell cloud dissipates it's a semi-naked human, and you realize only then it was a Werewolf. And now you are worried maybe it nicked you with a claw, which means you could become one.

How about some kind of giant porcupine creature with very long quills who can pelt you with them like a team of archers if you get too close. Some armies use tons of these creatures on their front lines as an expensdible defense perimeter, so sometimes when approaching enemy territories, you may encounter a hailstorm of "arrows" killing you swiftly.

More giant monsters who make the ground thunder when they walk, whose roar is so powerful they can "push" you back 10-20 feet each time, where they then pelt you with a psionic blast from their eyes like rings of white energy flying at you. They can only hit you with psionics from 10-20 feet away, meaning you have to try and either attack from a far distance from them, or get back in close range again. But they always try to get you in their 10-20 foot psy-blast radius.

Wow... scary, and fun....

I would like to see more sea and water creatures. I always felt that the water in elder scrolls was never taken advantage of. It would be awesome to fight terrible sea monsters. In Skyrim maybe there is even sea dragons. And maybe some sort of under water city.

YES! I actually REALLY hope there's an incredibly illusive bigfoot-like creature that roams the land. It would be kinda like the unicorn in Oblivion, but it would walk almost everywhere in Skyrim at random, so you would have to be incredibly lucky to see him. Also, he's neutral and flees when you get too close, but you can speak to him if you perform a certain action :)

Udig?

Also, I can't wait to see the mammoths and sabretoothes.

How about a dragon hatchling you raise in your house (when you purchase one), where you have a hired servant keeping it fed and warm and every time you return home it's just a little bit bigger than when you left. Meaning it grows a little each month so that by the time you're 30th level, the thing is big enough to become your ally (even if you can't ride it), it could defend you and be a spotter for you (alerting you to enemies), and if you were hungry, it could find game for you. A Dragon Companion you literally see evolving before your eyes. You are Dovahkiin, after all, how far fetched would that be? Not very...

Well apart from dragons.... oh.. they are going to be in Skyrim.

From what I've read/heard Skyrim is really already going to have a vast variety of creatures in it already so can't think of any more to add.
