Added 2021-11-01 19:40:34 +0000 UTCWererat gangs, drow kingdoms, and hobgoblin armies are a dime a dozen. Our heroes have just encountered a more obscure monstrous organization. It's not very intimidating though... Which monsters make the least threatening antagonists?

Fun fact about pathfinder lore: in Taldor, many of the banks are run by bronze dragons, and many of them serve the god Abadar, god of commerce and civilization. Making them literally tax dragons.

2021-11-03 22:15:30 +0000 UTCOriginally Plateau of Leng from a Lovecraft story. Pathfinder has it as a mysterious occult dimension with 'denizens' who can best be described as 'appear human'.

2021-11-02 13:48:36 +0000 UTCHOAs are definitely the most evil option of the bunch.

2021-11-02 13:38:03 +0000 UTCI don't even know what Leng is.

2021-11-02 13:36:27 +0000 UTCLeast threatening is probably the astronauts, but I wanna see this HOA way more :D

2021-11-02 01:36:59 +0000 UTCBut taking down a monster in an unconventional manner is also fun! See: that weird special episode of Sailor Moon where they defeat a vampire by going and eating korean bbq and then breathing on the poor unfortunate bloodsucker.

2021-11-01 23:35:55 +0000 UTCMerfolk fired into the air at high speeds could potentially fall and kill someone I suppose?

2021-11-01 23:34:53 +0000 UTCBut it's great for cleansing your pores!

2021-11-01 23:34:20 +0000 UTCtoday we learn a valuable lesson: combat ability is not the only thing which makes a monster a threat.

2021-11-01 22:44:38 +0000 UTCContractors, taxes, a homeowner association, and a hot yoga studio full of hags all sound reasonably threatening. If we're talking least threatening antagonists, Merfolk astronauts could at least be ineffective out of their element.

2021-11-01 22:27:09 +0000 UTCHonestly, the hag hot yoga studio sounds truly terrifying. Like, D100 sanity damage levels dangerous.

2021-11-01 20:56:17 +0000 UTCHard same. Imagine what sort of situation you'd have to be living in for the Spiders and Denizens to call a truce and team up to complain about your front yard...

2021-11-01 20:16:26 +0000 UTCI'm honestly by surprised by the front runner. Conventional HOAs are bad enough!
