What are your ideas for monsters, for players to worry about. This doesn't have to be about stat blocks (you can include stats if you like), its more about the concepts.
I'll go first
Lernaean devourer.
A Lernaean Hydra. except every head has been possessed by an intellect devourer. They have become attuned to each other, so that if you chop off a head, not only do you free that intellect devourer, but you create 2 more heads (and 2 more intellect devourers). Watch the fun snowball!
Of course, the players wont know about the intellect devourer infestation right at the start...

When faced with an issue, most people would rather be negative than find a solution.
A flesh golem, except instead of human parts, it's a dragon's head with a beholder body, with two displacer beast tentacles where it's horns would be. It can hover, breathe acid, turn invisible, and create illusions of themselves.
It's also really smelly.

I'm just your everyday dungeon master. Ignore that jar full of souls. And those bones in the corner are just props, don't worry. I'm definitely NOT a lich. Definitely.
Yes, I like beholders. Yes, I curated an exquisite personality for commoner #2864. Yes, my catchphrase is "are you sure?"

That reminds me of The Betrolder. A 2 headed troll, but with a beholder for each head.
