Here is the list of currently known Ancient Monsters to the Alliance:
Abyssal Orca – Massive orca that lives in the Abyss with control over water. It is known as one of the two strongest creatures in existence through sheer brute strength alone. However, it is considered stronger than the other one due to it having magic on top of that brute strength.
Kraken – A massive cephalopod living in the Abyss with control over water. It is known as the most unkillable creature in existence thanks to its near infinite regeneration.
Phoenix – A massive bird made partially of flesh and partially of flames. The second most unkillable creature all because its body is made largely of flames, and it can survive and recover slowly over time so long as even a single ember of its flames remain.
Glacial Fenrir – A massive wolf partially made of flesh and partially of ice. The creature is believed to be larger than mountains and has frozen entire planets solid in the ancient past. Planets that are still frozen to this day.
Hydra – A massive serpentine creature with hundreds of heads with control over magma. The creature is the second most territorial creature in existence, losing only to the Scyllaria as it claims any volcano it sees as its home. And it shares a difficulty to die as all of its heads must be destroyed within a short period of time for the creature to die.
Thunderbird – A massive bird whose very body generates lightning. It is known as the fastest creature in existence, using the lightning generated by its body to move faster than the speed of light.
Ouroboros – A massive serpent the size of a planet that was known to eat planets in the past and has intense poison. It is known as the world eater, yet it hasn’t ever been seen by human eyes.
Titan – A massive humanoid creature with three heads and six arms that does not use magic. Known only through ancient texts and statues, the Titan is the strongest creature in existence in terms of physical strength alongside the Abyssal Orca.
Revenant Dragon – A massive undead dragon that controls miasma. It is known to destroy numerous worlds by flooding them with miasma with nothing but its mere presence. Turning everything on the planet into undead.
Ashwraith – A wraith made of ash and spirits. Not much is known about the Ashwraith beyond its control over ash and spiritual power.
Sphinx – A massive creature that has the head of a human and the body of a lion. The Sphinx is widely known as a lover of all knowledge, and one of the few Ancient Monsters that could almost be considered a pacifist. However, just like all the other Ancient Monsters, it has not been seen for millions of years.
Nryog-el Variol – A massive abomination of scales, warping flesh, and large mouths roaming the universe in space using the void element. But no one knows what it is searching for.
Kirin – A large yet elegant horse with draconic scales and a single horn that controls lightning. It is known as the most majestic creature in the universe, with a very temperamental nature.
Lesh – A massive quadrupedal creature with the body of a panther made from vines and roots and a skeletal head of a deer. Not much is known about this creature beyond its curious nature.
Bloodbone Tree – A massive tree made of blood and bone that leaks large amounts of blood to fill its surroundings, creating an ocean of blood. It is the only Ancient Monster whose whereabouts are known to this day. All because it cannot move. However, it has flooded the entire planet it lives on with blood generated by its own body. Turning the planet into naught but a planet of blood. One uninhabitable to all except its seeds.
Ripper – A large creature made of an outer grayish purple carapace with the head of a carnivorous plant separated into four segments that is known to tear the minds of those it attacks to shreds. No one has ever survived with their mind intact to spread rumors of this creature, even in the ancient past.
Camazotz – A massive bat known to control blood. It is known to drain any creature it meets dry of blood in an instant and without any hesitation.
Soul Reaper – A creature whose physical form has never been fully confirmed underneath its damaged looking cloak of death energy. But many consider the mere sight of it as an omen of death.
Devil – A massive demonic creature with red skin and slit crimson eyes that can’t use magic but can’t be harmed by magic. Not many know why, but texts remain from the past hinting that this creature used to make deals with humans. Showing itself as one of the few Ancient Monsters capable of reasoning with humans. But every deal it has made has led to at least one death, so beware.
Voidwalker – A tiny pitch black fairy that travels through the void using the void element. No one knows anything about it beyond its curious nature and some of the pranks it leaves behind.
Heavenly Spirit – A beautiful angelic creature the size of a human that is immune to all physical damage but can’t physically touch others. Just like the Devil, it has made deals with humans of the past. However, unlike the Devil, it is shown to be magnanimous towards humans as long as the humans entertain it. Granting them their aide. Until one day when it vanished forever, never to be seen again. Just like the other Ancient Monsters.
Wendigo – A large creature made of flesh and ice in the form of a bipedal deer. It is a creature who is always followed by endless blizzards wherever it goes. And any who enter the blizzards will not make it out alive, whether they end up frozen solid or eaten.
Gorgarok – A massive quadrupedal creature that is a mix of a large ape and a snake. It is known as a berserk monster that attacks anything it sees in a rage, never ending its assault.
Scyllaria – A massive spider spanning the size of half a planet that makes its nest in space. It is known to spread its eggs all over the universe. Eggs that still exist to this day and occasionally hatch and must be dealt with by the Alliance.

I wonder what would happen if Camazotz and Bloodbone Tree met?

2025-05-25 00:17:38 +0000 UTCIn the game show, they said only the revenant dragon and the Lesh were considered undead. Why is the ashwraith not? Or the soul reaper?

2025-05-24 22:21:16 +0000 UTCThey cannot shapeshift. Most of them can't even speak the human language.

2025-05-24 21:49:50 +0000 UTCCan the ancient monsters shape shift like the bloodlines? Cuz I can think of two ways people ended up as bloodlines. First the ancient monsters shape shifted to a human form and had a kid with a human. Or somehow the blood of the ancient monsters was acquired and injected into people which was then passed down through the generations.

2025-05-24 21:49:02 +0000 UTCAlso I like the ancient monsters currently known part, because it’s been revealed that there are ones they don’t know about.

2025-05-24 21:42:14 +0000 UTCCool information, it’s curious how it seems most of the ancient monsters seem to have vanished. I’m curious how the abyssal orca, kraken, and abyssal kraken would treat Aqua since she has all of their bloodlines?
