I was merrily skimming the art galleries for MM2 and Feind Folio and I happened upon a few monsters that were not in those books. I know sometimes pics are in the wrong galleries (Tunnel Terror, etc)and was wondering if these were in any other book.

MM2 Gallery-
Silt Horror
Cold Spirit
Dune Reavers

Feind Folio-
Fallen Hound Archon

Oh and BtW- I also found a pic of the Slaymaster Kython in the BoVD gallery that was not pictured in the book.

That Fallen Hound Archon looks like a joke. Like somebody pasted Fido's head onto Wolverine.

Maybe, but the Dune Reapers and Silt Horrors looked cool, so I was wondering if they were ever stated...maybe not.

Don't know if theres a dark sun gallery or how the picture ended up in the MM2 gallery.

I have the 2nd edition stats for the silt horrors, there are 3 types, but they don't make a whole lot of sense in 3.5 (can't remember off the top of my head how to convert them)

3 types white,brown,and gray
animal intelligence (1-2)
align:nuetral
AC: 8
THACO: 7
No of attacks:10 (damage 1d8 + constriction)
Special defence: air jet (can use the air jet to escape by moving through the silt at 50 yards per round)
Morale: varies white 10,brown 12, gray 14

Size: white gargantuan,brown and gray huge

they like to grab victims pull them under the silt and suffocate them to eat later.

they all have psionic powers (it is dark sun after all [:)]) the powers differ from white, brown and gray.

I like the look of the Silt Horrors. The Dune Reapers look vaugely Dark Sunish to me as well.

Pathetic Earthlings. Hurling your bodies out into the void - without the slightest inkling of who or what is out here. If you had known anything about the true nature of the universe - anything at all - you would have hidden from it in terror.

The Dune Reapers look a little like Psurlons, as well. Weren't psurlons in Dark Sun?

Did these critters maybe find their way into the "environment" books, like Frostburn and Sandstorm?

And I agree: the fallen hound archon does indeed look like he is trying to be "the best there is at what he does."

I think the Psurlons were, they were in the old Dark Sun SSI game for the PC.

Looks like concepts that were axed before publication (possibly art-only concepts that were axed before design implementation). With the MM4 coming out relatively soon it will be interesting to see if any of these pop up. I just hope if the Fallen Hound Archon rears its (terribly ugly) head, they re-think the artwork first.....

If you go to www.athas.org they have entire 3.5 official rules for Darksun to download for free. Its legal as well. They've converted Silt Horrors to 3.5 rules. Even if you don't play DS theres alot of gold there. Our group is currently playing 3.5 Darksun. Shameless plug:)
