“Unleashing the Beast: The Secret Strategies to Ignite Your Monster’s Motivation!”
Also a bit of a hybrid, this monster will start quiet and stay hidden or even seem innocent at first… then will build as the story goes. If intelligence is a factor it will get cleverer as time passes as well. It usually wants something very specific and will get it by any means necessary.

You COULD build to revealing a monster’s motivation as your story, or you could just as easily keep it a complete mystery both can be scary in their own way. It’s more important to see these paradigms as YOUR guidelines when writing.
