"Reports of gigantic salamanders in the Congo are being brought back by refugees fleeing the fighting in the area."

This Mulilo is a strange creature that is 6 feet long and a foot wide, with color ranging from white to brown to lack.  It's breath is said to be poisonous, and it only appears when there is a rainbow (i.e. likely when it rains).  It is thought to be either a melanistic Gaboon Viper, a large caecilian or legless salamander, or even a slug/worm.  Locals try to catch them as their flesh is said to have magical properties.  They are found in Zaire and Zambia.

Breath Weapon (Ex): Every 1d4 rounds the Mulilo can exhale venom in a 10 foot line.  Contact, DC 13 Fortitude Save (Save DC is Constitution based), Initial and secondary damage is 1d6 Con.

Blind (Ex): The Mulilo has immunity to gaze attacks, visual effects, illusions, and other attack forms that rely on sight.

Skills: Mulillo have a +8 racial bonus on climb and swim checks, and a +8 Racial bonus when hiding in the muddy bottoms of their native riverbeds.  They may always take 10 on climb and swim checks even when rushed or threatened.

Combat: Mulilo are rarely encountered and their methods of attack are similar to alligators and other water based ambush predators.  They tend to save their venom for  problematic opponents.

This is the giant slug version of Mulilo.

Improved Grab (Ex): Mulilo may initiate grapple checks without provoking attacks of opportunity.  If they can pin their opponents they can use their radula attack.

This is the cryptozoological version of a poisonous lizard as opposed to the mythological cat faced reptile.  While the Tatzelwurm is described as being a lizard or dragon 1-7 ft. long, with 2-6 legs, a row of bristles down it's spine, and a cat's face, most drawings are of a short, stubby reptile with 4 legs.  It's thought it could be a snake, lizard or salamander.

Poison (Ex): Injury, Fort Save DC 12, Initial and Secondary Damage 1d6 Con.  Save DC is Constitution Based.

Skills: The Tatzelwurm has a +4 Racial Bonus with Jump Checks.

This is the 7 foot long Swedish dragon with a cat's face and boar's bristles down it's back.  Said to be so hot, it melts sand into glass with it's passing.

Poison (Ex): Injury, Fort Save DC 17, Initial and Secondary Damage 1d6 Con.  Save DC is Constitution Based.

Combat: Tatzelwurms charge into the fray, spitting poison at stubborn opponents.

Stollenwurms have 2-6 stubby legs and a thick, catlike head.  They are quite aggressive, jumping on humans and animals alike, attempting to strangle them.  They are especially dangerous to Fey, whom they attack on sight.  There is a common, black version, and a rarer white version with a gold crown.  They have 'poison in their throats', which I think means they breath it out.

Poison (Ex): Once every 1d4 rounds, the Stollenwurm can exhale Poison in one adjacent square.  Inhaled, Fort Save DC 14, Initial damage is Stunned 1 round, Secondary is Sickened for 1 Minute.

Favored Enemy: Fey (Ex):  The Stollenwurn gains a +2 bonus on Bluff, Listen, Sense Motive, Spot, and Survival checks when using these skills against Fey. Likewise, they get a +2 bonus on weapon damage rolls against such creatures.

Improved Grab (Ex): To use this ability, a Stollenwurn must hit with its bite attack. It can then attempt to start a grapple as a free action without provoking an attack of opportunity. If it wins the grapple check, it establishes a hold and can constrict.

Constrict (Ex): On a successful grapple check, a Stollenwurn deals 1d3+1 points of damage.

Grappler (Ex): the Stollenwurm does not take Size Penalties to Grapple Checks.

Combat: The Stollenwurm usually bites, and then goes for the grapple.



Much thanks to Jurgen Hubert who is assisting me with the German folklore (and whom I am hoping will correct me if I get things wrong lol).

"Day four of my life among the chimps.  Things seemed surprisingly normal until a small group of apes with spiny fur down their backs and odd looking hands and feet appeared.  The chimps seem nervous to say the least.  So am I..."

Kalanoro are 4 foot tall apes with bluish-grey fur, and spines running down their backs.  They have 3 toes and fingers and appear to be good swimmers, and pack hunters.  At least as far as cryptozoologists are concerned.  The locals think of them as belligerent fey.

Improved Grab (Ex): If the Kalanoro hits with it's Slam Attack it can make a Grapple Check as a Free Action without provoking an Attack of Opportunity. If successful it can Rend. Kalanoro may use this ability on creatures of their own Size Class or Smaller.

Rend (Ex): The Kalanoro does 2d6+3 damage with a successful Grapple Check.

Skills: Kalanoro gain a +4 Racial Bonus to Climb Checks, and a +8 Racial Bonus to Swim Checks.

Combat: Kalanoro tend to ambush their prey when outnumbering it, Grapple it to the ground, and then tear it to pieces.

These are 2 to 5 foot tall versions of the Kalanoro, and are ruthless and mischievous thieves sometimes used by sorcerers as mediums, healers and to curse opponents or remove curses from friends.  Many chase them for their hair, which is said to contain their magical power.  They are also known for visiting people in dreams and giving them taboos.  There is some discrepancy as to whether they are corporeal or not, so I made them able to switch between corporeal and incorporeal.

Spell-Like Abilities (Sp): 3/Day: Cure Light Wounds, Doom  1/Day: Augury, Remove Blindness/Deafness, Remove Curse, Remove Disease   1/Week: Bestow Curse, Dream, Lesser Geas

Improved Grab (Ex): If the Kalanoro hits a Medium or smaller creature with it's Claw Attack it can make a Grapple Check as a Free Action without provoking an Attack of Opportunity. If successful it establishes a hold. 

Corporeal Manifestation (Su): As a Swift Action, the Kalanoro manifests as a physical being temporarily losing it's Incorporeal Subtype.  While Incorporeal it has no Strength score and can't attack physical beings (but it can use it's Spell-Like Abilities).

Backwards Feet (Su): As a Swift Action a Kalaoro may turn it's feet backwards.  This doubles  the DC of Survival Checks meant to track them.

Skills: Kalanoro gain a +4 Racial Bonus to Climb Checks, and a +8 Racial Bonus to Swim Checks.  They do not take Size Penalties to Grapple Checks.

Combat:  Kalanoro only fight if they have the advantage, otherwise they flee.

"No one goes into the woods there anymore.  Something inhuman haunts them, and it does terrible things to anyone going inside.  Strange lights and sounds are heard there, and some who have gone to investigate do not come back..."

This is the infamous robotic alien monster of ufology fame (often listed erroneously as a cryptid).

Mist Spray (Ex): Three times per day the Flatwoods monster may generate a 20 foot cone of irritating mist. Victims inside it must make a Fortitude Save DC=19 or be Sickened for as long as they are in the cone effect and for 1d6+6 minutes after (Save is Charisma based, cone effect remains for 1d6 rounds before dispersing ). Victime who fail the save by more than 5 are also blinded for 1d6 rounds.

Limited Flight (Ex): The Flatwoods Monster levitates naturally. It always remains 2 feet off the ground. It may not gain height, and if thrown off a cliff it automatically is considered to have an always on personal range Feather Fall spell.

Combat:  The Lake Flatwood Monster usually blasts it's victims  with mist before disappearing.  Anyone attempting to get closer to it must face it's claw.

"Another tribesman with no face or brain.  I don't know how many more of these we can find before people start to snap."

This is the supernatural Mamlambo.  Described as similar to the animal version, but with a glowing green body or eyes that it uses to hypnotic effect.  Mamlambo is also a river deity and beer brewing goddess pictured as a serpent or mermaid (I can't find enough info on her to stat her out as a deity).  Mamlambo speaks Common.

Hypnotic Gaze (Su): 30 foot gaze attack, Willpower Save DC: 29 (Save DC is Charisma based). Victims of the Gaze attack are affected as by a Charm Person spell (caster level is equal to half Mamlambo's Hit Dice). The Mamlambo than attempts to convince them to come near to the water.

Improved Grab (Ex): If the Mamlambo hits with it's bite attack it may attempt a Grapple check as a Free Action without provoking an attack of opportunity. If successful it attempts to drag it's prey into the water and pin it on the bottom.

Alternate Form (Su): The Mmlambo can assume the form of a Mermaid as a standard action at will. The Mamlambo can remain in its Mermaid form until it chooses to return to its natural form.

Glow (Su): The Mamlambo can shed green light at will as a Free Action.  This is as bright as daylight for up to 30 feet from the Mamlambo, and dim light for another 30 feet past that.  While this light is on the Mamlambo fails all Hide Checks.

Skills: Mamlambo have a +8 racial skill bonus to Swim checks, and may always take 10 on a swim check even if threatened or distracte

Combat: The Mamlambo uses it's hypnotic powers to get prey to come within the waters edge, and then pulls it in to drown it.

"We do not go near the shores at night.  There are devils who live i nthe forest who come down to the beaches to hunt.  We dare not encounter them."

"Peek outside and see if they're still there."

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

"Quick! Get that hatch closed!

The Dundas Island flies travel in huge swarms and are notable for chewing through the skin of victims to get at their blood leaving horrible welts behind.  They are technically considered a cryptid simply because no one wants to study bloodsucking insects at remote locations.  They are well hated by the fishermen who sometimes go there.

Distraction (Ex): Any living creature that begins its turn within a swarm of Black Flies must make a DC 11 Fortitude Save or be Nauseated for 1 round.  Save DC is Constitution Based.

Blood Drain (Ex): Any opponent successfully damaged by the Flies Swarm attack also takes 1 point of temporary Constitution damage.

Poison (Ex): Injury, DC 11 Fortitude Save (Save DC is Con based), Initial and Secondary damage is 1d4 Dexterity.

Combat: Much like any other swarm the flies just swarm and bite away.  They aren't tactical geniuses.

"Well sir, you could go down to the lake to go fishin', but I wouldn't advise it.  There's a really big critter in that lake that objects to it."

The Alkali lake monster vaguely resembles a gigantic alligator with a horn on it's head.

Capsize Boat (Ex): A submerged Lake Monster that surfaces under a boat or ship less than 20' long capsizes the vessel 95% of the time.  50% if it's 20-60' long, and only 20% if it's over 60'.

Hold Breath (Ex): The Alkali Lake Monster can Hold it's breath for (8 times it's Con modifier) rounds before it risks drowning.

Combat: The Alkali Lake Monster tends to surface under boats to capsize them before picking off swimmers one by one.

"I never thought you could be killed by something because it just smelled bad."

The Alkali lake monster is a gigantic monstrosity about 300' long whose stench is so incredibly bad it kills anything nearby.

Stench (Ex): Any corporeal, living opponent within 100' of the Lake Monster when it surfaces from the water must make a DC 73 Fortitude Save (Save DC is Constitution based) or be poisoned.  Inhale, DC 73 Fortitude Save, Initial Damage 2d6 Constitution, Secondary damage is death.

Hold Breath (Ex): The Alkali Lake Monster can Hold it's breath for (8 times it's Con modifier) rounds before it risks drowning.

Combat: If anything isn't actually killed by the monsters stench, it tends to just rush in and start biting.

"Keep your children inside at night, and away form the old volcano.  It isn't safe for them.  You would not understand this being an outsider, but you must listen."

The Orang-Bati is an odd Indonesian cryptid said to resemble a red skinned humanoid, monkey, or Orangutan with short black fur.  It also has wings, a long tail, and a habit of eating children.

Improved Grab (Ex): If the Orang-Bati successfully hits a creature with it's Slam Attack it may immediately make a Grapple Check as a Free Action without provoking an Attack of Opportunity.

Flying Snatch (Ex): When performing a Charge attack while flying, at any point in it's movement the Orang-Bati can attempt to make a Grapple Check as a Free Action without provoking an Attack of Opportunity provided the opponent is at least one size class smaller than itself.  If successful it snatches the opponent and can continue it's flying movement (Although it will have to make further Grapple Checks in further rounds to continue falling.  Most fly upwards so the fall will kill opponents who do escape their grasp).

Combat: Orang-Bati supposedly prefer to eat children, and usually wait till one is vulnerable to sweep down and fly off with it.  They'll occasionally fight by doing flyby attacks, but if their opponent seems capable of defending himself they'll flee.

"DO NOT GO DOWN TO THE RIVER!! YOU KNOW NOT WHAT YOU DO!"

The Ninki Nanka is a West African monster described as a dragon or dinosaur like cryptid with a flickering tongue and bright red mouth.  It is sometimes compared to Tanystropheus, and sometimes may be a serpent with a crest and reflective scales.  It has varying amounts of horns, or none at all.  It's also been described as a fire breathing wyvern with a crest of fire.  Size is anywhere from 15 to 160 feet long.  In fact, very few descriptions of it seem to match.  This version is the prehistoric reptile.

Improved Grab (Ex) If the Ninki Nanka is successful with it's Bite Attack, it may immediately make a Grapple Check as a Free Action without provoking an Attack of Opportunity.  If it is successful it may Swallow Whole.

Swallow Whole (Ex): With a successful Grapple Check a Ninki Nanka may Swallow an opponent at least 2 Size Classes smaller than itself.  The swallowed opponents take 2d8+10 bludgeoning damage and 10 points of acid damage per round.  It may try to escape by doing 25 points of damage to the Nanka's stomach (AC 15) with a light slashing or piercing weapon.  Once it exits muscular action closes the hole and other victims must cut their own way out.  A Nanka's stomach may hold 1 Medium, 4 Small, or 16 Tiny or Smaller opponents.

Hold Breath (Ex): Ninki Nanka may hold their breath for (8 times Constitution Modifier) rounds before it risks drowning.

Skills: Ninki Nanka have a +8 racial skill bonus to Swim checks, and may always take 10 on a swim check even if threatened or distracted.

Combat: Ninki Nanka usually charge, bite, swallow, and flee.  They will attack again if there are only one or two more opponents, but larger groups will cause an attack, swallow, flee, attack pattern.
