I believe that it is in the best interests of everyone here to keep records of any supernatural creatures encountered. I request anyone who has battled the supernatural or studies such matters to add any information you may have, absolutly anything, weaknesses, strengths, activity cycles, diet, reprduction, etc. We never know when the smallest detail may be important.
I cannot emphasize enough for you not to leave out any detail.
In return I will offer whatever aid I can to your cause, and that can be quite considerable. If there is anything you need or want to know ask me and I will see what I can do.

Oh boy...
More fuel for the fire, this is just what the Society needs. Start making up wild stories to create the next monster of the week.
Somewhere there is a X-files writer out of work somewhere and his skills could be wasting away here with the rest of the fabricated and imaginary monsters the members of the Lazlo Society keep coming up with.

Would someone please tell sir Jake E.B. that this forum is only for serious discussion and not, as far as I can tell, drug induced delusions or paranoid conspiracy theories. After all, everyone knows there's no such thing as lizardmen, and them infiltrating Earth? Bah!
As well, I do not believe that he is this excellently written format in the way it was intended.

Thank you for your input but Im glad Im a lighthearted person and can take your ridicule. When they come all be glad that I can say that I told you so. Besides I don't see you put'en down any of the monsters that you might have seen, real or imagined. In the search for the paranormal one must look at the psychology of the person is well and I know that Im probably not the most mentally stable but at least Im willing to put myself out there and tell the world what I know. It's really up to the reader whether they take it as truth or fiction. On thes site should everything come from the RPG?

Using the aforementioned format.
NAME OF PHENOMINA: Spider/Human Hybrid, Species Unknown: went by name Cori
DATE OF ENCOUNTER: 31/10/2006
LOCATION: 650 10th St, Sparks, Nevada
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: Resembled average human female, until ready to strike. Then sprouted 4 spider-like legs, 6 inch fangs that were dripping a caustic venom.
PSYCHIC IMPRESSIONS: Feelings of hunger/fear/self-loathing/hatred of the females
STATUS: At least one is deceased. During fight, 3 others came out of the building, but escaped. They were wounded but the trail disappeared, they apparently got in a vehicle and drove off.
PERSON(S) INVOLVED IN INCIDENT: Myself, a victim that they pulled in to feed on, and my 5 partners.
WITNESSES: Myself, my partners, of which only 3 survived the encounter. They wish to remain anyonmous at this time.
THREAT LEVEL OF PHENOMINA: 10
PRE-EVENTS: Several homeless had been disappearing from the area. Police acutally found one body, desicated, from amount of decay on body, unable to detirmine time of death.
ENCOUNTER DATA: Using myself as bait, dressed as homeless, we were canvasing different areas of town. Scented smell similar to one detected on body in morgue, tracked it to address. When rest of group showed up, we approached door cautiously. Realized that the reason that homeless were being reported was that one of the "creatures" was working as a social worker. She was poaching on the homeless, but had also been hunting young men in bars. I assumed my more fearsome hybrid shape, while the others in my group got their weapons ready. We broke down the door in time to see "Cori" sink her fangs into her latest victim. The ensuing battle attracted more of her kind. During the battle I recieved several wounds that took a month to heal, wounds that normally would have healed in minutes if not faster. Two others of our group were not so lucky, in fact, one lady seemed to be singled out for the attacks.
AFTERMATH: The body of the creature semi-dissolved into a black goo, leaving skeletal remains
NOTEABLE WEAKNESSES, POWERS, STRATEGIES, ETC.: Shooting with uzi seemed to work, long as bullets kept tearing into flesh, seemed to regenerate quickly. Poisonous fangs, fist bite paralysis, second seemed to cause flesh to liquify. Capable of generating webs from postieror, very strong...could not break free for few minutes.
CASUALTIES: David Dunn, Mary Robbinson, Jeriame Runningbear
IMPLICATIONS: Something nasty and new.
POSSIBLE USES FOR PHENOMINA: Creature could be useful for collecting spider silk for making bulletproof vests

A pity this didn't catch on. With some proper organization, perhaps a searchable wiki, this would be really useful to those looking for certain repeated phenomena.

This would have been nice. It also would have been very full. Of course, it's also hard to tell when multiple people might have described the same creature, but in different ways. Or, equally problematic, when they take human form or shapechange.

Which is why a search function would have been very handy.
