How i see the middle one is it starts large but much smaller than that. The mechanics revolving around the creature growing in size and mechanics to attempt to reduce it. The large the size the more powerful the creature becomes with people trying to reduce as much time as possible of it becoming the largest size. Which eventually will create very hard mechanics to deal with and eventually try to swallow the entire raid. Players absorb increase the creatures size and a certain amount die during the raid everyone will end up getting absorbed. Which means raid wipe, and a way that creates danger if you try to zerg down the boss which creates more people to get absorb and much faster raid wipes.
I'd imagine a raid group is in a dungeon killing a lot of creatures and such as they travel around the area noticing weird things like a giant thing that could be a face, and kind of feet, etc. Not noticing its a whole creature, then they finish a boss thinking they beat the dungeon and the entire area starts to shift as the super Gargantuan ent starts to size with people being the size of its toe and having to fight the real raid boss.

Weee! ❤️
Hahaha, that would be awesome.
It would be cool if it was a world boss where a bunch of people had to like harpoon it first to trap it above ground first before we could all damage it.
Give me Ali Baba Hut, house turns into a giant mimic chasing me down! Hag not included please
From a Dungeon Master perspective of D&D other notable monsters that would be cool to see are:
- powerful Brownies
- Evil witchlight
- Nothic
- Owlbear
- Grimlock
- Ettin
- Ochre Jelly (or oozes capable of destroying / severely damaging weapons/armor)
- Suturefly with its mechanics somehow implented
- Hippogriff
- Acererak BOSS
- Mordant Snare
- Urochar
- GIRALLON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You know there are RL cows that are hairy and have horns, right...?
Cue the Highland Cow:
Not every cow is a Friesian Cow.
Looks like the minotaurs they just announced. The female version.
I'd prefer a more bloated, miserable and disgusting looking creature as reference but this matched the design Intrepid already showcased for Goblins.
Might turn into a dungeon level area; burrowing through the rotten floor boards and digging into sneeze dirt to form burrows and perhaps link up if multiple houses are taken over, setting up traps and hanging up bone trinkets and banner corpses.
Goblin Grubs would be the larva stage. . . egg sacks in the low corners. . . evolving after consuming rotting things which there are plenty of."
SPAWN, but perhaps more blistered and depressing looking:
Now, if the Egyptians had made their Sphinx look like that, there's no way they'd have let it get so ruined!
I think you could make all kinds of cool designs from nature. Take it in all kinds of directions.

Is this a "Krohn" special? Great-Fox-Dane?
Nuff' said.
They cannot naturally accept to obey. Or when they do, will not have the initiative to fight to defend the one who stole their freedom and broke their will.
Having a mind control skill while riding combat mounts could be useful.
