PHONETIC D&D MONSTER PUZZLE

I got into puzzle-making mode again recently, and have come up with a bunch of words/phrases that can each be "deciphered" to the name of a monster from D&D. This is using the loose term of "monster," which means it can be any creature the PCs might encounter, and I've selected monsters from multiple editions of the game.

As an example, "SCOOTCH DOWN, RABBIT!" = "Duck, bunny!" = "duckbunny." (I chose that one because the monster's so obscure. Most of the other monsters on the puzzle below are much better known to the casual player.) See how many you can decipher from the following list:
