I’ve decided (retroactively) to start the Hellenistic creatures off with the relatively normal ones. Which brings us to the Nemean lion, a normal lion with invulnerable skin. Only its own claws can so much as scratch it. Because of that, I gave it a smug face.

This is the goat of Amalthea, the nymph who raised the infant Zeus on Crete. She would also go on to supply her horn for the cornucopia and her hide for his aegis. Pseudo-Eratosthenes said she was the daughter of Helios.

I didn’t want to re-invent the wheel with its design. It has horns via this quote from Johanan bar Nappaha: “saw a fish which put his head out of the water. He had horns upon which was written: 'I am one of the meanest creatures that inhabit the sea.’”.

'They are basically friendly to humans and their ilk (dwarves, elves, halflings), but because they are shy, they are seldom seen and favor quiet, pastoral areas in which to dwell. If encountered on good terms, brownies can often be convinced to help lawful good characters.'

From the smallest creature I've drawn for the monster manual to one of the largest of summoner saga's! The behemoth has traits from various megafauna, including rhinos, hippos, bulls, and sauropods.

These are angels which fell from heaven, crashing and burning before falling into the icy lakes of hell where their charred remains are never allowed to thaw and heal. Their hatred is strong enough to seep through the eternal ice to curse others.
