    That sure seems logical enough. But of course this is fantasy, it doesnt have to be logical. A creature with no head, therefore, does not have to be undead in a fantasy setting where anything is possible. As an example, note that the following text on 'headless men' never uses the word undead: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Headless_men

    Yes, it wouldn't take much to skate by the EA Games copyright, but the creature that comes to mind for me is: the Three headed Hydra... I think this mythical creature goes way, way back in History long before UO or Ultima...

    The Hydra is definitely not unique to the Ultima intellectual property. They could always add that.

    There is going to be a huge army of very unhappy Greeks if someone tries to monopolize the Hydra :)

    That is utterly fascinating. Headless™ are an intellectual property of the Ultima Series (from my basic understanding of Intellectual Property law). I'm curious as to why EA has not approached them. Guess the team now can happily add Headless™ to the game now! :D

    Since EA has not contested this.

    Isn't what a wish list topic? A question about critters?

    I see it more as a question that a business should ask it's customers, to engage them and solicit their feedback on the subject...

    Yup, speckled throughout I'd imagine there are quite a few wishlists mixed in -- best to put them each separately on the wishlist forum. Putting it in a format that helps us do intake definitely helps, per the guidance on that forum. I'm sure new creatures will pop in each year. New creatures are actually on the 2020 Vision... https://www.shroudoftheavatar.com/forum/index.php?threads/shroud-2020-vision.161221/

    "New creatures:     Big Cats, Koala Bear Pet (charity item for Australia fires), plus secret." I don't know what the secret is... hmmmmm. (runs to go ask) :p

    Yes but the wishlist is monitored by @Elgarion while topics in the general forum have the habit of getting drowned out in the average background trolling ^^

    Me thinks we have some "above" average background trolling at times!

    I will try to post an abbreviated bulletized wish list post after the weekend, if this post survives.
