Tenderfoot Thahd Sonic 9 Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 Out if all the monsters In Exile I, II, and III which is the best is it the Humans, the Slithzerikai, the nephilim, the Vahnatai, the silmes, the roaches, The trogodytes, The hill giants, The golemls or the Alien Beasts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Kelandon Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 My vote should come as no surprise. Poor ailen beasts. Someone should help them out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Alorael at Large Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 The vahnatai are the only race in Exile that is original. They get my vote. —Alorael, who doesn't see what makes a bunch of bizarrely aggressive animals with a sawblade physique so great. They're only saved from total uselessness by Burma Shave.

Magnificent Ornk Kelandon Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 But if they're ailin', shouldn't someone call a doctor or something? Okay, I admit it was a bad joke. But that typo was just asking for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast Thralni Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 The vahnatai are the most evolved race here. They are also very strong in magic. I like their clothes and names. (and they are the only damned race that IS original and a bit different from the other species, although they still ARE humanoid) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unflappable Drayk Jewels Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 imho the Troglodytes have the coolest name, so they get my vote. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast Sullust Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 The vahnatai may be powerful at magic in general, but none of them come even close to defeating the most powerful human mages. Even Erika would've bested Rentar had it not been for the curse... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unflappable Drayk John S Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 Golems. Because they have shiny stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Understated Ur-Drakon The Almighty Doer of Stuff Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 Unfortunately, my favorite, the slimes, is not on the poll. They're just so colorful and silly. I mean, what's with those slimes that are trying to look like people? It's obviously not going to work. Oh, those crazy slimes... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall Micawber Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 Well, slimes might not be in the poll but silmes certainly are... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall BainIhrno Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 Vahnatai, otherwise I would have chosen a different moniker EDIT: Oh yeah, one time when I played Exile 3, Rentar actually managed to kill Erika by physical attack.

Hatchling Cockatrice Alorael at Large Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 Quote: Originally written by Thralni:The vahnatai are the most evolved race here. I now get to air a pet peeve by asking what you mean by "most evolved." Everything has been evolving for just as long as everything else, so everything is the most evolved. Unless, of course, you subscribe to vahnatai creatonism. —Alorael, who could see "most evolved" as "most adapted," except it isn't clear at all that the vahnatai are better matches for their environment than the sliths. The nephilim and humans, of course, are far better adapted to the surface, which is where they live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast ben4808 Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 What exactly are slimes made of? I was going to say skribbane gluitite. Could be something else, though. I'd probably say alien beasts, because their kind of damage isn't resisted very easily by most magical monsters. But there'd need to be a lot of them to do away with Rentar-Ihrno.

Well-Actually War Trall Spring Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 They are made of slime, ben. My vote goes to the sliths, although they are not my favorite. Nothing beats the old hostile cave cows! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Understated Ur-Drakon The Almighty Doer of Stuff Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 I like to believe that the slimes are a very large, somewhat mutated form of slime mold, a real Earth organism that nobody is really sure which kingdom it belongs to. Some say it's an animal because it moves and attacks things. Some say it's a fungus because it reproduces through spore-producing stalks. Some even say it's a very large protist. Slime molds are awesome, and so are slimes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unflappable Drayk Toenail Returns Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 I say the golems would win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast Sullust Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 The vahnatai and humans would easily be able to overcome the golems. Unless they suddenly developed their own intelligence... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unflappable Drayk John S Posted July 16, 2005 Share Posted July 16, 2005 No, the point of golems is that they have this set of instructions that they have to follow to the letter. Very inflexible. Considering intelligence is only displayed by making choices and showing off, it's hard for a golem to be smart and inflexible. (And being able to handle complex situations would un-golem it anyway.)

Easygoing Eyebeast Sullust Posted July 16, 2005 Share Posted July 16, 2005 I meant in the way of some sort of advanced computer core. Like the Mind Crystal in Exile III. If the controller of the golems was intelligent enough then it would certainly stand to rival the Vahnatai and Humans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast ben4808 Posted July 17, 2005 Share Posted July 17, 2005 On second though, if slimes were made of a skribbane compound, the Krizsanites would not want to get rid of them. Say arsenic gluitite. It's a type of slime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenderfoot Thahd ToeJm686 Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 yeah my vote is goin out to the troglos. i mean, theyre basically big dumb animals that want to kill stuff. and the smart ones(khazis) are pretty bad ass. i think about 5 elhoics cud maybe take down a rentar ihrno. it doesnt get any better than that.

Articulate Vlish Figgy Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 I thought the slimes were very interesting, I just with their difficulty was significantly harder as the idea behind them was excellent, especially if a much more powerful alien slime was created.

Curious Artila Andromeda Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 I found the use of the word "best" confusing in the wording of this poll. Best what? Best fighters? Best friends? Best dressed? Arbitrary values aside, the vahnatai are the most interesting. And they like shiny things so they can't be too bad. ~Andromeda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
