Monstropedia
#1www.Monstropedia.com
It has full descriptions of every mythological creatures origins and the folklore and legends surrounding them. For a GM, it was better than finding an actual gold piece. (Well, maybe not an ACTUAL gold piece …)
Monstropedia bills itself as the “ultimate online encyclopedia of monsters in myth, magick and legend” and has the goal of cataloging more than 5,000 creatures, legendary and imaginary, in its wiki-styled database.
As a resource for story-starved GMs — it’s unparalleled.

#2Belief it or not, I actually used to be an editor for the Monstropedia database. Never did I predict that it would get that vast and extensive someday. :) -

Does that mean we can steal the name at least for the upcoming Strolen's Monstropedia ebook of lifeforms? :flydrag1: -

#4How could they let that go?
I wish the owners werearound to work with. If only we had a security expert that could help track them down
If it is going down, better us grabbing it than another but sometimes catching expiring names can be a chalenging.
I am game though.
Edit
25 days it goes to an auction.
42 days itis released for general registration

Re: Monstropedia
#6Unbelievably there is an Monstropedia.org as well...
Hmmm monstropedia.com is blacklisted in a lot of spam registries, Strolen.
blacklist.spambag.org blacklist.spambag.org Listed
dul.maps.vix.com dul.maps.vix.com Listed
dun.dnsrbl.net dun.dnsrbl.net Listed
fl.chickenboner.biz fl.chickenboner.biz Listed
etc...
Monstropedia.com has a "Very Bad" blacklist status, with 10 DNS Black list entries.
Monstropedia.org is also blacklisted... A lot of entries!
As a matter of fact, they have been registerered with the same spam sites, an identical number of entries. An identical spam profile.
Accidental? I believe not.
The .ORG site is riddled with adsense advertisements. This guy needs money, and tried the ad-route.
My gut tells me they have the same Frenchie owner, and that he has been careless with his domains.
I believe I found the owner of .org... Perhaps not the one we want, but still, here goes:
He goes by the nick "Loki" in their forums.
BTW: Monstrous.com is www.Monstropedia.org's forum site and is linked to the site.
It is still active. It is also possible to access monstropediae.org, though not .com.

#7.com is currently in auction for $12 plus an auction fee but considering it is all still up and he is still active.
I was just worried it would disappear forever, but it is alive. -
