I’m interested to know if anyone else has come up with alternate versions or “subspecies” of the normal monsters in Dungeon World. My specific example was my alternate Ogres I made for a campaign where a god had made different colors (or breeds) of Ogres to perform different roles in his army. I had Reds, Greens, Blues, Blacks and Grays, along with the rare two-headed Ogres which sometimes were two colors, split down the middle. Some of these were better for direct combat, some were magic proficient, others were immune to magic, etc.
So what variants have you all made for your games?
K9 pack breeds.
Wolf – standard of course
Saber Pup – much larger and used for front line wars
Obysal Labradose – sent with assasins and stay unseen during the cover of night
Gill dog – a ship captain’s first mate
Sand digger retriever – the lizardmen learned just how useful these mammals can be
Rabid Rottweiler – mayors gaurds
