**Phlosphr** is a small gnat-type creature. Who controls people with his mind - which when looked at isn’t small as one would expect, but actually houses the universe as we know it. So sorry folks, agility, intelligence, and strength are only given to those who think they can actually perceive them. Otherwise, you are only bumping into each other because I allow it to happen. 🙂

[Skopo](http://thesurrealist.co.uk/monster?def=Skopo) is a Collosal Blob that Fears Nothing, is Wreathed with Flames, controls Human Thought, drinks Human Blood, and has a single Horn on its Forehead.

Interestingly, that’s almost an exact copy of my CV.

</div>

Apparently, they don’t get any lamer than **Ceejaytee** :

a Tiny Mecha-Lizard that controls the Weather, Screeches when Angry, and has Four Sets of Teeth, an Extra Head and Suckers on its Feet.

Strength: 1  
Agility: 5  
Intelligence: 5

Although, I do screech when angry, and suckers on feet would undoubtedly come in handy when hiking and well, with four sets of teeth, I could easily conquer a pizza, and . … . forget it. I’m a lame giant battle monster.

But wait–using my actual first name: **Cathy** is a Giant Robot that is Highly Flammable, and picks up Cars and Throws Them.

Yes!

At the risk of depressing y’all, anyone tried **The Straight Dope** vs **Ignorance** using intelligence?

**Ignorance** has a better intelligence number than **The Straight Dope**?

That’s practically Zen.

Sir Dirx is a Giant Lizard that is Susceptible to Electrical Damage, carries a Flamethrower, and has a Single Giant Eye.  
Strength: 10  
Agility: 6  
Intelligence: 3

Nice. I can be defeated by a car battery, and I can’t aim my flamethrower because I have no depth perception.

But, if I use my real, full name, I am a Giant Moth that CANNOT BE STOPPED, kidnaps Blonde Women, and has a Toughened Steel Skeleton.  
Strength: 6  
Agility: 11  
Intelligence: 8

That’s more like it.

ROBOX is a 300-foot high mechanical version of Babe the Blue Ox, of Paul Bunyon fame. Originally intended to be an attraction at Minnesota’s Mall Of America, it was secretly retrofitted by the CIA as an experimental battle bot. But something went terribly wrong; an alien energy being possessed it’s circuitry and set it off on a rampage of destruction. Only first before destroying all humans, it must eliminate all those other pesky giant robots and monsters that could contest it for control of the Earth.

Height: 98 meters at the shoulder  
Weight: 1/2 million metric tonnes  
Weaponry: High energy lasers built into eyes; megasonic “moo”; gas dispensers in nostrils; multiple deployable ports along body for rockets and automatic cannon.
