Every answer scores points toward one or two monsters, and the highest total wins. Different answers lead to different monsters, so retake it to meet them all.

It is for fun, but every result is drawn from the sources: Homer's Odyssey for the Cyclops, Sirens, Scylla and Charybdis, the Enuma Elish for Tiamat, and Irish legend for Balor.

Eight: Medusa, the Cyclops, the Sirens, Scylla, Charybdis, the Hydra, Tiamat and Balor.
