Foursaken Formians
As previous Foursaken Features have demonstrated, there are a lot of cool monsters that have been left by the wayside in the most recent incarnation of Dungeons and Dragons. One such monster is the formian. While they’ll never be modrons (and, as such, I can never truly appreciate them as they deserve), they do have the benefit of being a monster that we can actually do something with (a quality which modrons sorely lack…). For those of you not familiar with formians, they are a race of half-ant-half-humanoids, which resemble nothing so much as an “ant-centaur.” Depending on who you talk to, they may or may not be paragons of law and order (these formians are not, and, in fact, are fey creatures). For more information on formians, try here.
Well, that’s all folks. If you want to see more formians in the future, send me an e-mail (ariggs@necromancers-online.com), or head over to our forums, and say something about it there.
