burrowcrawler

A subterranean Agarashi. That means it's an ugly demonic thing with lots ot tentacles. Should be in an anime film but isn't (it's in book one of Joe Dever's Lone Wolf series, hiding under a hill). Pretty low combat skill, definitely beatable.

You have come to a hill. Do you want to:
1) go under the hill and get eaten by a Burrowcrawler, or
2) climb the hill and get eaten by a Kraan instead?

guursh

popular orc ale, so called because of the noise you make after drinking it.

taken from the Fighting Fantasy gamebook world.

I drank some guursh and then said guursh very loudly.

The orc had drunk so much guursh that when it tried to cleave my skull it ended up hewing off its own leg. (hee hee)

zlanbeast

a large monster from the Darklands, similar to a Kraan but bigger. The largest, Imperial Zlanbeast, are ridden by the Darklords themselves. Strangely, you can play all the Lone Wolf gamebooks and never actually get to fight one.

You see a zlanbeast from a distance.

As you battle on the bridge, a zlanbeast flies by overhead.

The zlanbeast flies away as the tower collapses.

You are in combat with a zlanbeast. (INCORRECT USE)

Conenab

In the Spectrum game "Down to Earth", the Conenabs are cute little cyclops plant things which grow in clusters, multiply like randy maths teachers and explode when they get too numerous. Quite handy because the nasty aliens you're trying to kill sometimes hit them and blow up.

Oh bloody hell, there's another alien after me and I've only got two frigging lives left, there's some conenabs over there, I'm going to head for those. Oh shit, they've blown up and killed me.

Orkish

My sister is possessed of an almost Orkish intelligence.

My maths teacher was babbling again, I think he might have been speaking Orkish.
