One of my favorite things to do when designing worlds is to begin picking out monsters for my world.
Dynama is turning into one of my favorite monster brainstorming triggers, and I thought I'd share some of my wacky monster ideas. So without further ado...
This is the first creature that came to mind. With kobolds rising to the status of a PC race, I thought it necessary to try and find a new fauder monster for my setting.
Guess where the inspiration for this monster came from! You get one hint. It came from a developmental stage in a video game that has a sequel/spinoff close to being released.
The Peapops
One of the stranger creatures to wind up on earth after the Dynama Enigma, Peapops are a race of tiny squirrel like creatures that make there homes among isolated areas in large populations. They usually make their homes in trees, but they can settle anywhere really. They act as scavengers and gatherers, and are a very social group of creatures. Usually regarded as pests at best, they do get a break in most large cities. They make very effective garbage cleaners, and city officials usually make deals and allow Peapops to scavenge there cities for food, in exchange for picking up trash. Needless to say the Peapops existence is usually not a respectable one. They can however be dangerous in large groups.
