Smashsquatch Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 Wow we've really gone overboard with this, but hell were technically on topic of supernatural and as long as it doesn't go too far let's keep going. Why make just Frankensteins out of them let's make any creature we imagine out of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
✪RION Posted September 30, 2011 Report Share Posted September 30, 2011 so, if you could have an army of monster..what would it be? Mine personally I'll say Shapeshifters. The Alpha Shapeshifters would be the secret weapon and all of them are given mutation to give them incredible ability like monstrous strength in an form that change into and also so they could regenerate any injuries that had will on some joy ride or lunch break.

Spirit of DMG Posted September 30, 2011 Report Share Posted September 30, 2011 Really? An army of monsters? Such an obvious choice. Cthulu and his spawn would make the best army. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I thought we were the leader(s). But yeah I don't think a pagan god would want to lead a bunch of monsters considering they can already have bunch of demi gods bastard as theirs. Also, I really like how in supernatural, the monsters all came from a mother who created an alpha who then spawn more monster by turning human into them...which contrast with humans and the angels who have a daddy(which is god).

Smashsquatch Posted October 4, 2011 Report Share Posted October 4, 2011 I say we should do something for the month of October, like a special contest or something! Too bad FTW isn't here to help us out with that! /: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
✪RION Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 yeah well...life must go on..and so is this club. Anyway, I think we should do like monster of the week till it's Halloween. Fictional and non fictional monsters. By fictional I mean the one from tv series or movies along with their lore and we discuss about that monster. Is that a great idea?

It's October already [/quote] Yeah, but since were in the middle of the week already it'd seem a little unfair especially if it's a monster someone here actually wants to talk about. After (If anyone does wanna vote for a monster for next week) I'll choose a different monster all of the way up to Halloween. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smashsquatch Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 Okay I'm pretty sure Grendel is gonna be our first monster of October. Since he's the first monster we'll start talking about him today. I was planning to post a picture of the monster on here, but for some reason it's not working. Wow, I'm shocked that no one's said anything yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As noted in lines 105–114 and lines 1260–1267 of [i]Beowulf,[/i] Grendel and [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grendel%27s_mother"]his mother[/url] are described as descendants of the [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bible"]Biblical[/url] [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cain"]Cain[/url]. Beowulf leaves [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G%C3%B6taland"]Geatland[/url] in order to find and destroy Grendel, who has been attacking the [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mead_hall"]mead hall[/url] [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heorot"]Heorot[/url], killing and [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ingestion"]eating[/url] anyone he finds there. Grendel attacks the hall after having been disturbed by the noise of the drunken revelers. One cryptic scene in which Grendel sits in the abandoned hall unable to approach the throne hints that his motives may be greed or revenge. After a long battle, Beowulf gets fatter and mortally wounds Grendel by ripping his arm off. Grendel dies in his cave under the swamp. Beowulf later engages in a fierce battle with[url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grendel%27s_mother"]Grendel's mother[/url], over whom he triumphs. Following her death, Beowulf finds Grendel's corpse and removes the head, which he keeps as a trophy. Beowulf then returns to the surface and to his men at the "ninth hour" (l. 1600, "nōn", about 3pm).He returns to Heorot, where he is given many gifts by an even more grateful [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hro%C3%B0gar"]Hroðgar[/url].

Smashsquatch Posted October 13, 2011 Report Share Posted October 13, 2011 I actually have a book that talks about monsters and villains from mythology, literature and movies and Grendel was one of the monsters in it and it said and I quote: "As an outcast, Grendel walks in desolate places on the fringes of society. Angered by the sounds of singing and celebration coming from the festing hall, Grendel wages war for 12 years against the Danes. A furious and hungry creature, he leaves behind scenes of carnage and bloody footprints. Killing more than 30 warriors in the feasting hall, he drags away their bodies to eat them in his swamp lair. Grendel cannot be stopped. He has placed a magical charm on all human weapons, which means that no knife, arrow, spear or sword can harm him. The king and his people abandon the feasting hall. Only the hero Beowulf is unafraid." That's what it says for the main description, but it does talk about Beowulf slaying Grendel and his mother, but it says that in the "Did you know?" section of each creature.

Mr.Robot Posted October 15, 2011 Report Share Posted October 15, 2011 from your description, it does really show's why Grendel is evil or s***...is grendel just want to see the world burn, power hungry or tormented soul? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smashsquatch Posted October 15, 2011 Report Share Posted October 15, 2011 No, I think he's a hermit who's been living underground with a skin irritation and just wants some lotion! jk I actually don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
✪RION Posted October 15, 2011 Report Share Posted October 15, 2011 well..his motif are unknown but probably a tormented soul considering his an outcast and you know...the outcast would eventually rise against the oppressor. The real question is, is grendel a monster or actually a victim of his world? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
