So I've been designing some homebrew things for fourth edition.

First of all we have a terryifying monster called The Experiment RH-4461


http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv184/MaximilianLowenstein/monster.png
Experiment RH-4461 is a failed (at least officially) creation of Professor Tark. It is a vicious creation apparently made of radioactive slime capable of tearing through most of living creatures.

If at least two attacks hit, the target is grabbed and cannot attack (save ends) and contracts Radioactive Poisoning disease) If four or more attacks hit the target is helpless and can only be saved by killing Experiment RH-4461. It also contracts the Radioactive Poisoning disease and is subject to Crushing Attack
Special: If Experiment RH-4461 is grabbing one or more targets, reduce the amount of tentacle attacks in further Onslaught attacks by amount of tentacles grabbing target(s).

Experiment RH-4461 Tactics
Experiment charges into battle and attacks all enemy he can reach with the onslaught attack. Then he uses an action point to make another onslaught attack, this time however concentrating on the toughest target. He attempts to grab it and then render it helpless. While keeping one of the enemy helpless at the time he then tries to dispose of the rest with Radioactive Spew/ Toxic Spore combinations. In case of considerable resistance it uses another action point to make another mass onslaught attack.
Experiment RH-4461 Lore
A character knows the following information with a successful Dungeoneering check.
DC 25: You are not sure what exactly stands before you. It does not look like anything you've seen before. However it's green glow makes seems to be very ominous to you, and instincts tell you that it is better not to come near the beast.

Stage Three:The target loses all of the healing surges and gains only half the normal number of hit points from healing effects
Stage Four:Final State The target dies and cannot be revived.

then we have a bit overpowerdish artifact :The bow of the Lords of The Light


The Bow of the Lords of the Light
The bow is appropriate for upper tier paragon-level characters and epic-level characters.
It is said that this bow was created by the legendary Lords of the Light. It never runs out of ammunition and it's attacks are particularly harmful to all of the undead. For a strange reason, or maybe a joke on the Lords part, it appears as a very old and worn out bow which seems not to be of any use in combat.

Bow of the Lords of the Light Paragon Level
Legendary item created and used by the mysterious Lords of the Light. It possess a great power. It often appears when the threat of the undead is rising and it is said that even Vecna is afraid of it's true power which can be unlocked by a mysterious “Chosen One”
The Bow of the Lords of the Light is a +4 Lightning Longbow with the following properties and powers.
Enhancement: Attack rolls and damage rolls.
Critical :+4d6 lightning damage, or +4d10 radiant and lightning damage against the undead.
Property: This weapon deals additional 2d10 radiant and lightning damage against the undead
Property: This weapon creates it's own arrows while shooting, thus it is not needed to carry the ammunition for this bow.
Power (At-will Lightning): Free Action. All damage dealt by this weapon is lightning damage. Another free action returns the damage to normal.
Power(Daily Lightning): Free Action. Use this power when you hit with the weapon. The target and each enemy within 2 squares of the target take 2d6 lightning damage.

Goals of the Bow of the Lords of the Light
-Fight to remove the undead blight from the world
-Bring peace to the nations of the world
-Locate the prophesied chosen one
Roleplaying the Bow of the Lords of the Light
When picked up the bow remains silent until it is sure that it's new wielder can truly further it's goal. Then it begins to communicate with the wielder by showing him mental images and telling short commands only the bearer can hear. It can give the bearer hints in his current predicament or subtly nudge in him into direction he or she should follow when it also can further the bow goals.

CONCORDANCE
Starting score
5
Owner gains a level +1d6

Chosen One (Concordance 40 or more)
“I am the chosen one. I shall remove the blight that the undead are from this world. “
The bow found it's true wielder. It will no longer move on, for it is content.
The bow's enhancement increases to +7
Critical :+7d6 lightning damage, or +7d10 radiant and lightning damage against the undead.
Property: This weapon deals additional 5d10 radiant and lightning damage against the undead instead of the 3d10.
Property: When the weapon hits and undead it acts as if the owner has just used the Even Hand of Justice Paladin power in addition to rest of the damage and effects
Property: The weapon can be used as paladin's holy symbol. It adds its enhancement bonus to attack rolls and damage rolls and the extra damage granted by its property( if applicable) when used in this manner. You do not gain your weapon proficiency bonus to an attack roll when using The Bow of the Lords of the Light as an implement.

Transcendent (Concordance 21-39)
“The bow and me are one. Soon no undead shall walk this plane!”
The bow begins to glow and it's attacks are particularly harmful to the undead. Also each arrow begins to start a chain of lightnings whenever it hits the unjust.
The bow's enhancement bonus increases to +6
Critical:+6d6 lightning damage, or +6d10 radiant and lightning damage against the undead.
Property: This weapon deals additional 3d10 radiant and lightning damage against the undead instead of the 2d10.
Property: When the weapon hits undead, evil or chaotic evil target it acts as if the owner has just used the Chain Lightning wizard attack.

Pleased (Concordance 16-20)
“The power of the Lords of the Light is coursing through this bow. I can feel it!”
The bow is in tune with it's current owner and is clearly happy with his performance.
The bow's enhancement bonus increases to +5
Critical:+5d6 lightning damage, or +5d10 radiant and lightning damage against the undead.
Power(Daily Radiant): You can use the Turn Undead Cleric class feature as if you were level 21 cleric.

Satisfied (Concordance 12-15)
“I knew it. This bow is truly a magnificent tool for removing the undead blight from this world”
The wielder has proved his intention to the bow, and the weapon is ready to assist him, in return for the same of the wielder.
Power(Daily)Minor Action. You can use bow's guidance to earn +5 bonus to attack rolls until the end of your turn.

Normal (Concordance 5-11)
“This bow is more than it seems. But I don't know why...”
The bow is cautious of wielder intentions and waits for a good moment to reveal it's power.

Unsatisfied(Concordance 1-4)
“The bow looks worse and worse. I think the time had finally gotten it.”
The bow is not satisfied with user's performance. If he does not change his ways soon it will move on.
The bow's enhancement bonus drops to +2.
Critical:+2d6 lightning damage, or +2d10 radiant and lightning damage against the undead.
Special:The bow loses the property to deal additional damage to the undead.

Angered (Concordance 0 or lower)
“For some reason the bow no longer acts as if it was magical”
The bows sees the user as a shame to the Lords of the Light and will move on soon.
Special:The bow loses all of it's magical powers and properties.

Moving On
“For the Lords of the Light!”
The bow sees that it's user has fulfilled his purpose and is no longer needed. If it was at least satisfied it leaves behind +5 thundering longbow. If the concordance was transcendent it leaves +6 bow and confers on the wielder +5 bonus radiant damage to the damage to the undead. If the bow was unsatisfied it zaps the user for 2d10 lightning damage which bypasses all resistances to damage and gives the user permanent -2 to diplomacy checks. If it was angry it deals 4d10 lightning damage and gives the user permanent -5 to diplomacy checks.
And last but not the least I've decided to convert Cambions into playable race (EVIL playable race)

For the record (and I'm not accusing you of anything), many people, including myself, will not go to megaupload for anything for any reason. There are too many viruses floating around that site.
If you have text versions, you can post them here. If they're large, you can wrap each section in [spoiler] wraps. (The first is [spoiler] and the end is [/ spoiler], but without the space.)

Another thing... use some indentation and bold text. Wall-O-Text isn't the preferred format for monsters.

Also, rtg has a set of power icons I like...

Hey, you should know that the Wings racial power basically mimics the effects of having a Fly 8 (clumsy). It's actually exactly the same thing.
