Hi everybody, I'm making an RTS game for mobile that is based on when Europeans first settled in North America. It will feature 3 factions where one is based on the Native Americans, one based on the European settlers and the last one will be based on monster folklore from both cultures.
Right now we only have wendigos that we have decided to include but we need around 8 different monster (two of who should be able to fly).
Can you guys recommend some monsters to include?
Gnomes
Hodag.
Gargoyles buddy
Chupacabras

This has a nice overview on a ton of monsters from Native American folklore.
Baykok is a good native one.

This site is really good, it holds not only monsters but some legends as well (like the man who defeated a giwakwa with the help of a rabbit, gives me an idea for a hero Native American hero unit).
So how's progress, OP?
I'm Lumbee and in North Carolina. The only two I can think of, that I have encountered personally, are the Appalachian light-orbs and the idea of your spirit animal make a repeat appearance in your life.
The spirit animal one is easier to have happen when you basically live in a mountain range filled with everything. My friends is a deer, since he has found and nursed abandoned deer from the forest all the time. Another friend has a black bear. His is more alarming and dangerous, he has to carry a shotgun when he goes roaming Aline or with us. Garenteed, a fucking bear comes wandering over to us every time.
Mine is an Owl. Everywhere I have lived, apartments, houses, tents, no matter what, I will have an Owl start living and hanging out in the trees near by. A lot of times its right outside and Squawks all night long. Right now I actually have two living right outside my window and they are constantly fighting.
