From the farthest realm beyond the stars Something is fundamentally wrong in the universe, and the monsters of the mythos are invading the Pathfinder RPG again, from minor minions like the morlock and skum, debased cultists and the corrupted remnant of civilizations of yore, all the way up to the spectacular sinister creatures like the spawn of Yog-Sothoth and the star-spawn of Cthulhu, as well as the brand-new blackgate behemoth, a tentacular terror that births mysterious monoliths whose inscrutable inscriptions offer the chance at forbidden cosmic knowledge and unknowable cosmic terror. Alien races are here as well, from the foul fungal conquerors, the mi-go, to the thought-projecting yithians and the gene-warping elder things. Stranger things still are found in sky and sea, from flying polyps and bholes to eyes of the deep, and impossible creatures from places beyond understanding like the dream-haunting nightgaunt and the mysterious color out of space. A dozen and one corrupt creatures of every description lie within, from CR 3 to 25, but if two whole books of mythic mythos monsters are just not enough we also provide you with the new xenoid template and its even more awful mythic xenoid version, to turn the humblest creature to a pseudonatural terror of unnatural menace. The Mythic Monsters series from Legendary Games brings you dynamic and exciting mechanics alongside evocative and cinematic new abilities that really help creatures live up to their flavor text, whether they are creatures of real-world myth and legend or creatures born out of the RPG tradition itself. These creatures can work just as well in a non-mythic campaign as they do in one that incorporates the full mythic rules, as you can throw them at your jaded players who think they've seen it all or know the standard monster stats as well as you do. That look of surprise and "What was THAT?" will warm any GM's heart. Get this 36-page mythic monster supplement today, and look forward to future releases in the Mythic Monsters line.

Exploring a prominent digital mythology, this book proposes a new way of viewing both online narratives and the online communities which tell them. The Slender Man – a monster known for making children disappear and causing violent deaths to the adults who seek to know more about him – is used as an extended case study to explore the role of digital communities, as well as the question of the existence of a broader “digital culture”. Structural anthropological mythic analysis and ethnographic details demonstrate how the Slender Man mythology is structured, and how its everlasting nature in the online communities demonstrates an importance of the mythos.

Drawing on historical sources, myth and folklore, Fantastic Creatures in Mythology and Folklore explores the roles of fantastical beasts - particularly the unicorn, the mermaid, and the dragon - in a series of thematic chapters organised according to their legendary dwelling place, be this land, sea, or air. Through this original approach, Juliette Wood provides the first study of mythical beasts in history from the medieval period to the present day, providing new insights into the ways these creatures continue to define our constantly changing relationship to both real and imagined worlds. It places particular emphasis on the role of the internet, computer games, and the cyberspace community, and in doing so, demonstrates that the core medieval myth surrounding these creatures remains static within the ever-increasing arena of mass marketing and the internet. This is a vital resource for undergraduates studying fantastic creatures in history, literature and media studies.
