I really want a giant hissing cockroach the size of a small dog. I would have jewels & stuff embedded in her exoskeleton, & keep her on a nice leash. Take it for walks & stuff. Laugh my butt off as it scares the poo outta people. *<:)
What's your idea of a Monstrous pet?
-

That's pretty monstrous alright.
-
I want a werewolf :-D to be my pet friend and sidekick in action :police:
-
Awesome!!! & don't worry Kadesh, the exoskeleton is just protein, like our nails & hair, so it wont harm the darling little bug in any way. :-D
-
Are you farking kidding me?? Have a jewel embedded into your fingernail before you go around saying "it won't hurt."
-
I have, it's fun. Okay, it WASN'T a jewel, but still fun taking that chunk out of my nail. :wink:

em·bed (ěm-běd') Pronunciation Key
v. em·bed·ded also im·bed·ded, em·bed·ding also im·bed·ding, em·beds also im·beds
v. tr.
To fix firmly in a surrounding mass: embed a post in concrete; fossils embedded in shale.
To enclose snugly or firmly.
To cause to be an integral part of a surrounding whole: "a minor accuracy embedded in a larger untruth" (Ian Jack).
To assign (a journalist) to travel with a military unit during an armed conflict.
Biology To enclose (a specimen) in a supporting material before sectioning for microscopic examination.
That does not sound fun in any way. To embed something is to fix it DEEPLY into an object. It would have to be very deep to get a jewel to stay.
ex·o·skel·e·ton (ěk'sō-skěl'ĭ-tn) Pronunciation Key
n. A hard outer structure, such as the shell of an insect or crustacean, that provides protection or support for an organism.
If it's as hard as that.. you'd have to crack it to get anything embeded into it. And cracking it would probably kill the creature.

My ideal monstrous pet would be a formless, semi-liquid mass of slime that would eat the people I disliked at my command. Now how cool would that be?
-
Ohhh, that's awesome!!! :-D
-
I would abslotuely love to have THING, you know the Addam's familys severed hand that helps out and walks around.. LOl it would be so cool.

I'm sure you don't have anyone in mind or anything.
-
I'm sure you don't have anyone in mind or anything.
You'd be surprised. I can be a pretty vindictive individual.

Believe me, blow_fly, we know.

Believe me, blow_fly, we know.
Eh? Is my mean-spirited, childishly vengeful nature that transparent? Crap.
*<:)
-
No, it's not terribly transparent. I'm just the King of mean-spirited, childish, and vengeful. I know my kind when I see it *<:)*<:)*<:)
-
And I, for one, love you both for it. Its fabulous to have people that aren't afraid to speak the truth... no matter how bald it may be.
-
Lmao, if I spoke the truth as I saw it, I'd have you all running for the wig shops. *<:)
Anybody else want a wyvern for a pet? Bascally a mini dragon? It would be awesomeness incarnate. 8-)
-
Why would we run for the wig shops? And not everyone has the ability to speak the truth... some pervaricate, some just don't have the balls to do it, and some are too busy ass-kissing to bother with it. Whatever the reason, it's very very rare.
To me, there's no such thing as a 'monstrous' pet. If I want it, it's adorable to me, and everyone else can blow me.
-

Why thank you, dearest Kadesh. It's good to know at least someone appreciates our antics :laugh:

Are you so sure that's what a wyvern is? As far as I know, it's a heraldric beast from the medieval ages used to represent Satan and the horrors of the Black Plague, and it was a dragon with a beak, 2 legs, and a tail barb or spade. I don't really think that has anything to do with being a miniature dragon, or even has anything to do with mythology.

You're quite welcome. May you inspire the masses.. :roll:

My monstrous pet...
Cthulhu.
Nothing like demanding the elder god himself to sit and roll over. "Stop dreaming and fetch me some souls, Mr. Tentacles...thats a good boy!"
-
Me thinks that you have a cruel streak. Why would you go so far to simply humiliate and embarass this lovable and much loved deity?
-
My monstrous pet...
Cthulhu.

HOW DARE YOU?!
You have severely offended this H.P. Lovecraft fan. Cthulhu was NOT an Elder God, let alone THE Elder God. The Elder Gods included amongst their ranks Bast, Hypnos, Kthanid, Nodens, Ulthar, Vorvadoss, and Yad-Thaddag, but NOT Cthulhu. Cthulhu was in fact a Great Old One, and by no means the most powerful of the lot.
If you really wanted to prove your strength as an owner of pets, why not try to tame one of the Outer Gods like Yog-Sothoth, Nyarlathotep, Azathoth, or Shub-Niggurath? Surely it would be a greater feat of strength to hold The Black Goat of the Woods with a Thousand Young or The Lurker at the Threshold on a leash than a measly Great Old One?

HEY!!! Play nice on my thread, y'all. :x

It's called 'sarcasm'... don't get your knickers in a twist over a joke. :wink:

Fixed that for ya :laugh:

:focus:
Now.
-
Honestly. First it's pets then it goes to something about H.P. Lovecraft, whatever that is. :roll:
-
This isn't worth going back to topic. There's nothing really 'monstrous' about a pet anyway. *<:)
-
Yes there is!!! I want a Battle Velociraptor/Giant Bird pet so I could ride it around town & order it to eat annoying people!!! :gun:
-
Careful... you wouldn't want to get eaten by your own pet. %&$ *<:)
-
Elder ones, Old ones, whatever. Didn't care much for delving into the hierarchy of a fictional pantheon of celestial chimera. Besides, I pictured my Cthulhu as a lil' chihuahua like thing. All cute and s**t. Heres a quickie Paint job:

For some reason I always wanted a 3-headed dog like Cerberus & a griffen. But I'd also like a dwarf caiman, tasmanian devil, gaboon viper, & a host of other that always make my family ask "why do you want monsters?"
-
Weird, who wouldn't want all those? I grew up on a farm for the first 8 years of my life, my family has photos of me holding all these super awesome garter snakes that I caught while they were sleeping under the black tarp that we used to keep the hay dry. i loved snakes & frogs, & "creepy crawlies" :-D
-
I want a bunny girl, neko-chan or an inu-hime.
........................................*blushes*
Oh as a pet? well the above still counts, but........ would a vampire queen be too much to ask?
.....................*nose bleed*
Fyne. i want a giant silver COCKROOOAACHHHHHH!!!!!!!
(http://www.freewebs.com/chronoenclave/XionAnimal.jpg)
and a Warg. And a Class-A. human-sized dragon......... and maybe a herd of Giant cows......... i need a food source for my pets.....
and maybe a Pet turtle.... ^_^
-
Lol, awesome Raz. Always the unexpected from you. :-D
-
I've always wanted one of the extinct giant South American sloths as a pet. I would put armor on it, and ride around on the thing. Hell, if I'm gonna do that, I might as well go all-out...
I'd attach a perch rod to the armor on each side of the sloth for my trained hunting birds to sit on, and large rings to hold leash-chains for my numerous trained battle-animals. There would be a small switch on each chain that would unhook the clasp on each beast's collar so I could send them to attack whoever I wanted, and not have to leave the safety of my howdah.
Anyone who can top that for awesomeness gets a cookie :-P
-
Um... Ummm....
I want a Chameleon :-D They're so cute! And their eyes move all over the place.
Do I get a cookie?? *<:)
-
Lol, you ALWAYS get cookies dear. Who can say no?
OOOooohhh, I want a pet dragon!!! Can you just imagine what you could do with one? o.0
WORLD DOMINATION!!! >XD
-
Chameleons are awesome! We just lost ours, cheech, after 2 years. The eye thing is totally trippy & so is watching them eat; their tongues just shoot out like a dart.
-
I've always loved reptiles. I could never understand why people would think they are slimy. Slugs are slimy, reptiles aren't. :?
-
having a wolf pack would be nice. i couldn't have just 1, lol.
-
COOOLLL, anybody know of a timber wolf? I think they are the wolves from the ice age, huge, monstrous beasts. A pack of those would be truly awesome. :-D
-
Timberwolves are still around. We have a few as patients at my work. The ones you are thinking of are called Dire Wolves. Either would be cool, for as much bad press as they get, wolves & wolf hybrids are generally pretty sweet. You just have to think like a wolf when you handle them.
-
Dog Whisperer!!! He is awesome, I bet he can walk straight into a wild pack of wolves, & not have a single confrontation with them. I think he might be a canine therian of some sort. Or maybe even a werewolf.
Anyways, yes, I meant Dire Wolves, thanks for the clarification. :-)
-
You just have to think like a wolf when you handle them.
So I have to put myself into the role of a delicious food in order to understand them?
Because, really, what other purpose does a wolf serve than to be grilled over a fire with spicy cajun bbq sauce?
*<:) *<:) *<:)
In all seriousness, I do agree. Most people don't understand that wild animals can be good companions if you treat them as equals.
Dog Whisperer!!! He is awesome, I bet he can walk straight into a wild pack of wolves, & not have a single confrontation with them.
I agree, Cesar Millan is quite amazing. I think he prefers to work with domesticated dogs, though.
As far as wolves go, have you seen the show Living With The Wolfman on Animal Planet? This dude, Shaun Ellis, has a family of wolves that live in a large enclosure on his property, where he studies them and lives with them. If there are any true werewolves in this world, I have no doubt that he is one.
Hell, he even looks like one:

-
Awesome. Has he ever trained them to fetch the morning paper for him?
-
I doubt it. Shaun Ellis lives in the damn near middle of freakin' nowhere, and the wolves will attack anyone that is not a part of their pack.
Instead of domesticating them, Mr. Ellis has instead become a part of their family under their conditions. It's really quite fascinating.
-
Hmmmm, anybody want a flesh eating war horse?
DIOMEDES was a barbaric king of the Bistonian tribe of Thrake who fed his mares a diet of human flesh.
Herakles was commanded to fetch these horses by King Eurystheus as the eighth of his twelve Labours. He captured the animals and left them in the care of his young squire Abderos while he went to deal with Diomedes. But during his absence the boy was devoured. Herakles then fed Diomedes to the beasts, stilling their unnatural appetite with a meal of their master's flesh.

How dare you talk about my mother that way :x
*<:)
-
Your mother must be awsome then. *<:)
-
Very good over hurdles though!
-

Hey, where do you think I got it? :laugh:
Another "monstrous" pet I'd want is a werewolf. Actually, I'd want a whole pack of them. Chained up around my fortress, the furry monstrosities would keep unwelcome company from bothering me. I'd also do experiments on them in my lab, so they're all cybernetic and mutated and s**t.
Hellz yeah...Juvenile escapist fantasies are awesome.
Very good over hurdles though!
If by "hurdles" you mean "male genitalia", then your mom is pretty good at that too. *<:)

Who wants a giant pet shark to go surfing on? :-D

Hey, that's so not funny. ur talking about my spirit kind, so be acreful what u say, or i'll have to show u how wolves eat.
-
I do Regina!
-
AWESOME!!! :-D
OOOooohhh, who wants a giant sake? One over 40 feet long?
-
Even though I'd eat pretty much anything anyway, I don't think I could handle having a pet snake and be able to stop myself from eating it.
A monitor lizard of some sort, or a crocodile, though...I'd definitely want one of those. I'd walk it around on a massive chain and sic it on anyone who pissed me off :evil:
-
Massive chain? You meany, that would probably hurt them. Now, a black collar with spikes... :evil:
