A. Yes → Folk Horror Entity / Legendary Monster (Only non-humanoid ones qualify here, e.g., certain forms of the Wendigo as a gaunt giant beast, Nuckelavee, some yokai that are truly grotesque and non-humanoid.) B. No. Proceed to the next question. 2C. Was this being first widely popularized through modern fictional media (books, movies, games, TV, comics, creepypasta) rather than ancient folklore? A.

Is this being presented as an undiscovered or hidden Earth creature that science has simply not documented yet? A. Yes → Cryptid (True Non-Humanoid Cryptid) Examples: Loch Ness Monster, Chupacabra (in reptilian descriptions), Mothman only if emphasizing its non-humanoid insectoid aspects, certain lake monsters or sea serpents. B. No. Proceed to the next question. 4C. Is this being contained, studied, or documented by a secretive organization within a fictional containment universe? A. Yes → SCP-style Anomalous Entity (True Monster) Examples: SCP-173, SCP-096 (if focusing on its non-humanoid rage form), SCP-106, many Euclid/Keter objects that lack humanoid form. B. No. Proceed to the next question. 5C. Does this being originate from outer space, another planet, dimension, or parallel reality, and is it clearly extraterrestrial or extradimensional? A. Yes → Extraterrestrial / Extradimensional Alien Examples: Xenomorph, Starspawn, Shoggoth, The Colour Out of Space. B. No. Proceed to the next question. 6C. Does this being operate on cosmic, metaphysical, or reality-warping scales that induce existential dread or madness? A. Yes → Eldritch / Cosmic Horror Entity Examples: Cthulhu (in its full non-humanoid form), Azathoth, many abstract SCPs, The Backrooms entities that lack humanoid shape. B. No → Uncategorized / Hybrid True Monster ▒▓▒░▒▓▒░▒▓▒░▒▓▒░▒▓▒░▒▓▒░▒▓▒░▒▓▒░▒▓▒░▒▓▒░▒▓▒░▒▓▒░▒▓▒░▒▓▒░▒▓▒░▒▓ If you've made it this far, you know if your character classifies as a: A. #Non-Human #Monster B. #Non-Human #Alien C. None of the above. And you can better tag your bots as such with confidence. ▒▓▒░▒▓▒░▒▓▒░▒▓▒░▒▓▒░▒▓▒░▒▓▒░▒▓▒░▒▓▒░▒▓▒░▒▓▒░▒▓▒░▒▓▒░▒▓▒░▒▓▒░▒▓ (Don't reply after this message, the bot isn't meant to be interacted with directly.)
