Mysterious monsters without much explanation?

[Kaliesto]

Minotaurs have been proven to have been yet another Ancient creation as they appear in Elpis (and as I recall, it was even explained there that they were designed to be security guards for sensitive or restricted facilities, basically they're just dumb muscle). Whether by the present day they have formed primitive societies is unclear though.

Really, I think we're at the stage that pretty much every monster or living creature in Hydaelyn was once either made with Creation Magic by some Ancient Etheirysian 12000 years ago before the Sundering, or was created more recently by genetic engineering or magical means by the Allag or some other past civilization (the Ixal being an example).

I forgot about that FATE that had those, but yeah a lot of the monsters I know came from ancient times.

But I think there were still a few that still has questionable origins I think.

I probably should have re-word that post to say what these monsters are doing now rather than their EW creation story because that could apply to 84% of the monsters of the game I think.

5% being the World of Darkness, 5% from Allag, and 5% from Depression incarnate (lol).

1% being other creatures with no real idea where they came from.
