Inspired by this. (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?347771-3-5-Monstrous-Gestalt)
Quote from original thread
Monstrous gestalt would mean that it is gestalt, but with all or most of one side taken up by RHD/LA/monster classes (at least initially). I had initiated one a while back, which I enjoyed, but unfortunately we didn't get very far.
The basic idea is that by using gestalt, you can play a character whose RHD/LA/etc would otherwise be prohibitive. Always wanted to try out a a Troll? Fire Giant catch your fancy? Vampire caught your eye? Here is your chance to play them! You basically have a normal build on one side, and the monster stuff on the other. So you can be a Mind Flayer wizard without being in epic levels by the time you get access to Fireball, or a Black Dragon barbarian that can rage more than 1 time a day, or even an Erinyes rogue who can do more than 1d6 of sneak attack damage.
I'd like to see what you all can come up with here.
For added bonus:
Community Based Monster Classes VII (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?192151-Community-Based-Monster-Classes-VII)
Improved Monster Classes (http://www.minmaxboards.com/index.php?PHPSESSID=mq7e8qaj2hr57nmfq5ciqkneu6&topic=270.0)
My idea:
Kraken 6/Titanic Creature 10/Monster of Legend 4//Warlock 20
