More Greek mythological creatures
Greek mythology is littered with awesome creatures. Really wondering why more of them are not used. I know more are being added but hoping for good ones that help as well as ones to defeat. The Greeks liked to provide the good (pegusi, centaurs, nymphs), the bad (cyclopes, hydra, harpies, sirens, chimeras, minotaurs and lamia the neutral (dryads, sphinx, and giants).

Please use some of these creatively to make awesome quests and populate the land with interesting adventures.

Developers: Let me know if you would like help with some of this creative work. I love that stuff.

I feel like anyone attempting a myth game should at least look at the breadth of what's in a game like Titan Quest.

YES PLEASE!!!

Greek Mythological Beings
Greek mythology is rich in fantastical creatures, each with its own unique characteristics and symbolism. Here’s a list of some of the most notable ones:

Centaur: Half-man, half-horse creatures that inhabited the mountains and forests of Thessaly.

Cerberus: The three-headed dog that guarded the gates of the Underworld, preventing the living from entering and the dead from escaping.

Chimaera: A fire-breathing monster with the head of a lion, the body of a goat, and the tail of a serpent.

Cyclopes: Giant, one-eyed monsters who were the workmen of Hephaestus and lived in the volcanic mountain Etna.

Drakons: Serpentine dragons that were often depicted as sea monsters.

Empusae: Vampiric creatures that haunted the earth and preyed on the living.

Erinyes: Furies who punished those who broke laws and social norms.

Griffin: A lion-like creature with the head and wings of an eagle, often depicted as guarding treasure.

Harpies: Half-bird, half-woman creatures who served as agents of punishment, often depicted as winged spirits.

Hydra: A serpent-like monster with multiple heads, one of which was immortal.

Minotaur: A half-man, half-bull creature that was trapped in the Labyrinth and fed on human sacrifices.

Phoenix: A majestic bird that was born from its own ashes, symbolizing rebirth and renewal.

Sphinx: A hybrid creature with the head of a human, the body of a lion, and the wings of a bird, known for posing riddles to those who dared to approach.

Sirens: Bird-like women whose irresistible song lured sailors to their deaths.

Skolopendra: A giant sea monster with a crayfish-like tail and long hairs protruding from its nostrils.

Thanks for the thoughts. We definitely intend to add Greek myth monsters to the game. We are short on character artists and animators though, and we will only add creatures when we feel we can do them right, so this is just an addition that takes time for us. Stay tuned and we look forward to bringing you more in the future <3
