Who Are These Guys!?

Back, as they say, in the day I played a lot of, ahem, Dungeons and Dragons. In D&D there were books of monsters and each monster had a bunch of numbers explaining how tough it was and what kind of treasure it had and so on. This was known as the monster's "Statistics" or "Stats." As we're down to four candidates in the race, I give you: Their Stats!
