Even among the beastmen, the creatures listed below are especially notorious for their crimes against the Empire. All competent mercenaries and adventurers are encouraged to aid in their elimination.

Cerberus

In recent months, numerous reports from mercenaries infiltrating the Troll stronghold of Halvung have indicated the presence of a sinister-looking three-headed canine of cyclopean proportions. Those who have mustered the courage to challenge the hell-spawned daemon in mortal combat tell spine-tingling tales of an impenetrable sable hide, and rows of armor-piercing jaws dripping endlessly with the blood and bile of countless victims...

Intelligence has also gathered that this creature might actually be the hunting dog of Troll mercenary captain Gurfurlur. If this is true, then it may not be long before the savages deploy it during one of their raids on Al Zahbi. We ask that all able-bodied mercenaries take up arms against this threat to the empire.

Hydra

Recently, the lone survivor of a missing volunteer unit returned to Al Zahbi with an unbelievable story of a three-headed dragon that attacked his companions while they were on a mission deep within the Wajoam Woodlands. Though they fought gallantly, their mauls and magicks were no match for the Tartarean wyrm's thick, squamous hide, and it was only a matter of moments before the mephitic miasma that poured from its gaping maws scorched the lungs of the ill-fated warriors.

While ancient tomes indicate that the Hydra is an independent beast that roams the outlands of its own will, the interrogation of a Mamool Ja spy revealed that the reptilian horde has been attempting to tame the dragon by luring it to their training grounds with the raw flesh of their prisoners. If they are successful in soothing the savage beast, they may soon learn a way to utilize it in battle, thus spelling doom for the Empire's armies. All high-level mercenaries are recommended to enroll immediately in eradication expeditions.

Khimaira

Travelers to Halvung and Hediva Isle have brought back with them strange tales of a hideous beast roaming the volcanic terrain. However, the differing reports have Imperial schoolmen scratching their heads in disbelief. Some adventurers speak of the twisted horn of a giant ram, while others the golden mane of a lion. Still others speak of a pair of undersized bat-like wings or a spiked reptilian tail imbued with deadly venom. One crazed old man even mumbled of a deep violet hide, not unlike that of the dreaded behemoth.

Until more information can be gathered on the abhorration, the Empire has bestowed upon it the name Khimaira, and is actively searching for mercenaries who might be willing to hunt down this elusive beast.

Finally, the Empire would like to address the rumors that the Khimaira is in fact a byproduct of a secret Imperial bioweapon engineering program. These accusations have no basis, and any person(s) caught spreading these malicious falsities may be tried under Imperial laws of treason.

HNM in besieged will be FUNNY! XD
 
So when are they going to buff up the Imperial Army to reflect the massive strength increases of the Beastmen? Some other named and ranked combatants would be a good addition.

However, someones likely to try to kill Cerberus in the field. Perhaps it'll offer up another oppurtunity for obtaining his loot?

Don't look in to Beastmen story much, do you?

It's obviously the Khimaira, considering Lamia are chimera as well, and perform many kinds of biological experiments. Plus the background is a dead give away. Sup swamp?

I'm well aware of what Lamia are. But as it says there, as as you would know if you followed the ToAU storyline, you'd know the Khimaira is from Halvung. Last I checked there were no Lamiae in Halvung.

Well, Hediva Isle is in Caedarva Mire, so I suppose it could be a HNM on the currently unaccesable island.
 
Hediva is where it is supposedly so ya :P and that's near caedarva mire (as you put)

Only I can talk about West's bedroom.
 
Ok, so what have we learned today?

Kill ToAU HNMs, otherwise SE gets pissed and adds them to Besieged so you all die horrible deaths.
 
Cerberus in Besieged would be fucking fun.

*pictures a 10% Cerberus spamming Gates of Hades*
 
Woo, two back storys for Cerberus now!

No crap, but the one in Halvung is called "Khimaira 13". Ever occur to you that there could be more?

Pretty sure the Trolls never bothered messing around, nor have the alchemic capabilities to create a chimera like the Lamia do. Aren't there ports in Halvung as well? And hey hey, whats that? The Undead Swarm have ships! What's up trade market? Trading Biological weapons for armor and weapon caches anyone?

not really..

1) This unearthly three-headed beast prowls the tunnels of Halvung. According to legend, Cerberus is the watchdog that guards the gates of the underworld. It is said that any who manage to escape will be hunted until Cerberus sends them back to his shadowy realm. However, the Cerberus of Halvung was discovered buried in igneous rock during a construction project. The beast went on a rampage until the mercenary chief managed to tame him. Although Cerberus is faithful to his master, one of his heads is continually afflicted with a craving, which puts the beast in a constant foul mood. In his endless rage, Cerberus spews toxic flames without cease or concern for surroundings, resulting in many hapless tragedies. It is for this reason that even the menacing Troll mercenaries are said to cover their ears and shiver in fear when the jarring roar of Cerberus echoes through the tunnels.



2) In recent months, numerous reports from mercenaries infiltrating the Troll stronghold of Halvung have indicated the presence of a sinister-looking three-headed canine of cyclopean proportions.

It wasn't the lamias that created khimaira though :p

And yes, I'm well aware they could be more. And yes, I know he's called Khimaira 13. I do believe I never stated otherwise.
