[[man-ma|Both]] [[man-la|Mans]] respect that. \\ Her Crone form has less HP, but her max still outstrips all but the greatest Human, Tuatha, and Van heroes. \\ It may be tempting to have her start out as that, but doesn't have [[Regeneration]] in that form, and an [[Afflictions|Affliction]] caught while being a furless thing will carry over to her tougher shape. \\ Pay no attention to the furry bulge on the sprite; both forms are female. ([[Seduction|Not that it matters...]]) | |
| | | **??Son of Fenrer??** \\ {{scales>Dom2}} \\ {{:abilities:pretender.png?15&nolink|Base Cost}}170\\ {{:abilities:magically_attuned_researcher.png?15&nolink|New Path Cost}}80 | | | | | {{:pretenders:son_of_fenrer.png?nolink}} | **??Son of Fenrer??** \\ {{scales>Dom2}} \\ {{:abilities:pretender.png?15&nolink|Base Cost}}170\\ {{:abilities:magically_attuned_researcher.png?15&nolink|New Path Cost}}80 | {{path>W1N1}} {{:misc:gui:research.png?nolink}}9 \\ | This is apparently not Fenrir... and Skoll & Hati are busy chasing the Sun & Moon. \\ Anyway, [[atlantis-la|LA]] Atlantis also accepts a giant wolf; from its inspiring culture, there's one known as "Amarok". \\ The relative cheapness of this beast is probably owed to his fragility, mainly his lack of [[Recuperation]] despite being a [[Berserker]]. After expansion, though, he can transition to ambushing with ??Foul Vapors??.\\ **20 points cheaper for {{:nations:flags:ea_niefelheim.png?20&nolink}}[[Niefelheim-ea|Niefelheim]], {{:nations:flags:ma_jotunheim.png?20&nolink}}[[Jotunheim-ma|Jotunheim]], {{:nations:flags:la_utgard.png?20&nolink}}[[utgard-la|Utgård]], and {{:nations:flags:la_vaettiheim.png?20&nolink}}[[Vaettiheim-la|Vaettiheim]].** | |

And the ability to cross mountains in the [[Temperature|cold]], ironically.\\ You do get [[Regeneration]], though, so your budget Snek could still stall out defenders. You also gain some map movement in ideal terrain, and you lose [[Cold-Blooded|cold-blooded-ness]]. | |
| | | **??Linnormr??** \\ "Nidhögger"\\ {{scales>Dom2}} \\ {{:abilities:pretender.png?15&nolink|Base Cost}}230\\ {{:abilities:magically_attuned_researcher.png?15&nolink|New Path Cost}}80 | | | | | {{:pretenders:linnormr.png?nolink}} | **??Linnormr??** \\ "Nidhögger"\\ {{scales>Dom2}} \\ {{:abilities:pretender.png?15&nolink|Base Cost}}230\\ {{:abilities:magically_attuned_researcher.png?15&nolink|New Path Cost}}80 | {{path>W1D1}} {{:misc:gui:research.png?nolink}}9 \\ | Is this "limbed worm" strong enough to justify his literally-lethal reputation? \\ Well, picture a Drakon; then imagine it with just one head, less-suitable buffing paths, a ??Hydra??'s poison (but stronger), and [[Dragon Master]] for ??Ice Drake??s. \\ Then imagine it's not [[Cold-Blooded]], and that it has 30 extra HP. \\ You can still have his religion spread [[Scales|Growth]]. | |
| | | **??Wyrm??** \\ {{scales>Dom2}} \\ {{:abilities:pretender.png?15&nolink|Base Cost}}230\\ {{:abilities:magically_attuned_researcher.png?15&nolink|New Path Cost}}80 | | | | | {{:pretenders:wyrm.png?nolink}} | **??Wyrm??** \\ {{scales>Dom2}} \\ {{:abilities:pretender.png?15&nolink|Base Cost}}230\\ {{:abilities:magically_attuned_researcher.png?15&nolink|New Path Cost}}80 | {{path>W1E1}} {{:misc:gui:research.png?nolink}}9 | Compared to the other Northern Monsters, the "Wyrm" is very-well-known. Many nations of the Deeps will accept it, for instance, as well as many Mesoamerican and African ones. \\ It's essentialy an Ormr with a second head instead of [[Cold Resistance]]; nothing too complex. Whether the extra attack is worth those extra 30 points is a personal matter. | |

Despite losing the war, however, the Van elves love him. \\ Despite his offensive power, Odin is a bit less durable than most Titans, at least beneath all his magical trickery. \\ **20 points cheaper for {{:nations:flags:ea_vanheim.png?20&nolink}}[[vanheim-ea|EA]] & {{:nations:flags:ma_vanheim.png?20&nolink}}[[vanheim-ma|MA]] Vanheim, and for {{:nations:flags:ea_helheim.png?20&nolink}}[[helheim-ea|Helheim]].** | |
