Yesterday's poll came in with tightly-contested matches between all players, precisely 51.9% of all votes went to the winners in their respective contests, constituting a narrow edge-out in either case. NOW! Golems! Imperfect clay homonculi from Jewish folklore! Werewolves! Globally pervasive folkloric archetype of behavioral atavism! But you really only know them from AD&D and White Wolf, so let's have them fight it out!



I do not exaggerate when I say that I am excited almost beyond the point of expressing it. So to that end I add "Yay!"


Let us never forget the rules:

Monsters were chosen by the following guidelines:

• No individual specific monsters - i.e. Count Dracula, Frankenstein's Monster - were selected. Monsters are defined solely by TYPE.
• For the purposes of this poll, only human-like monsters were used, excluding all non-human monsters such as dragons, evil animals and, I don't know, cursed refrigerators or something
• Which are the two reasons neither King Kong nor Godzilla are on this list. Now you know.
• All monsters come from this Wikipedia list and also a couple I remembered.
• It's limited to 30 participants by way of LJ Poll limitations, so none of this "OH YOU FORGOT MOTHMANS" or whatever, I had to make cuts.
• However, convincing suggestions made in comments will encourage me to add monsters in the bye rounds.
• Your selection criteria is totally your own, decide between the monsters however you feel is appropriate.
