Before anything else, huge thanks to Divine Jack for pulling this together. He had a lot more notes that I didn't expect him to pull together at all, so I definitely direct you to him if you have an questions.

Jack's just your monster encyclopedia over here. Save my soul.

Anyway, I'll limit users to two myth-specific or specified monsters (those with names or that had certain fates). I'll be dividing the monsters best I can, and you'll only have to worry about claiming on that specific post. Otherwise this is just here for you to look at for creating monsters when that thread goes up and all that jazz.

Dont get too attached to this top post, it'll probably be edited as I post more of the sections.

Euryale, one of the Gorgon Sisters, her screams were so great that they could kill.
