"RPG Scavenger" Help

I'm missing a couple of RPG cliche enemies. I've tried all sorts of things I think are commonplace among the genre like zombies, bandits, pirates, wizards, spiders, wolves, and so on. Can someone give me some hints?

One is what turned 4 regular turtles into Crime Fighting Ninjas, and another is a giant _____ breathing, possibly flying beast.

I can't figure out the others... and I'm getting tired.

One of your monsters will soon become an experience in a world of it's own.
Another monster is already part of this experience, but tend to value their candles above all else.

If you can guess what game I'm on about you'll know these two answers. I'm stuck on my last two personally. 
The 4 regular turtles thing I can't figure out yet... Or the quest system is broken.

EDIT: Nevermind, system isn't 'broken'. It's just extremely picky and a certain *** + Monster combination doesn't give a positive... Odd if you ask me. I would've nailed this monster 24 hours ago if it weren't that goddamn picky.

Monster Mash

1. Prefers to slide around Dragon Quest
2. This Dungeons and Dragons creature might bug the hell out of you
3. Wagon
4. World of Warcraft has a lot of monsters, and this dawg is no exception
5. Midget elf

Does anyone have any more clues on the second monster? As a massive D&D fan I'm frustrated as hell >.<

I'm still not getting #1, it's not Slime or anything.

#1 Dragon Quest has these all over the place in many varieties
 #2 This one is so ridiculous and hard I don't know how to give a good enough hint without giving it away...  It's two living things put together in one word.
#3 Some would argue that it is the age of them.
#4  Think Warcraft, they like to mine and love their candles
#5 Green, pointy-nosed, mischievous.

These are insane. I got it - but why would you leave off the more common ones? No Skeleton? Seriously?  or undead? 

In Wind Waker NUMBER 5 is called a

I still can't figure out #4, and I can't figure out the method of destruction for red hot, HELLLPPPP!

I just got the second one in Monster Mash. I've never seen one of those in an RPG. I'm disappointed as there are much, much bigger clichés. Where's the obnoxiously huge bug representation?

Forget it... I could either spend time trying to get magical Giant Bomb achievements, or I could actually play a game from a catalog of old games calling to me.
 
The whole idea of asking for more hints on the forums totally breaks the achievement aspect of it, anyway.

" @xobballox:  #2 is totally not a cliche creature, considering I've only ever seen them in one line of RPGs. You have to be a pen-and-paper role-playing nerd to get that one.  The hint at the question itself is a little misleading, at least on a Video Game site.  Also, the only one I need now is the first part of the Hammer Smash. "

I still can't figure out #2. I play D&D. But I can't think of 2 common creatures in one name.

" @NoXious: I just found #2 in wikipedia. It is not a cliche whatsoever. There are about a million more common monsters in video game RPGs.   I would have made it undead, personally. C'mon, what other monsters do you usually heal to kill. "

I don't know how well most people know their Breath of Fire games, but another hint for #2 would be that - In Breath of Fire 2, this creature can be found in TagWoods on the way Baba's hut.

Dude, just got pointed at #2. It's not a cliche, but it's definitely a D&D monster. Hell, it has skins/soundsets for it in Neverwinter Nights.
If you've got #4 and #5, #2 will make sense! It is considered to be of the same "family" and pretty much use the same social structure.

Thank you all for the tips! Especially iplaygames.

just found #2 as well. It was bugging me so much that I couldn't bear it anymore!

I don't know how much help this will be but there's an enemy type in Demon's Souls whose name is the  inverse of the same two creature names .

Wow, really? Outside of D&D-related products, I have never heard it.
 
My only advice is this: I know it may bug you, but bear with it and you will get it.

" @RobotHamster:#4 sounds a lot like the 27th element we humans have discovered. "

Just need #1 and #4 now

Added an alias to #2's page which should make it easier to find (Before the creature's name was spelled in a single-word only).

" Just need #1 and #4 now "

" just found #2 as well. It was bugging me so much that I couldn't bear it anymore! "

Finally got it all.  This quest was stupid.  I mean #2?  Come on.

So i finally completed the set...this set made me angry, it was stuck in the 80/90's!
 
The Hammer Smash and Fire BAD ones annoyed me...because the answers seemed in the wrong places to me, i almost thought it was a glitch.

Anyone have any hints for #1? It's the last one I need

Any more clues on #2?  It's driving me up the wall. 
 
EDIT: Got it thanks to a couple of clues in this thread. Having said that, I've never heard of these things in my life...

WTF IS NUMBER FOUR?!?!? 
I HONESTLY DON'T GET IT..... 
HINTS??? 
 
NVM, just got it... God 2 and 4 was a BITCH. 
BTW, if you wanna get 4, you'll have to be kool and bold. :) (yes, kool is spelled like that on purpose hint hint.)

Number two took me forever to figure out. As a hint adding on to the previous ones I would recommend you search just one of the terms and look for the monster, once you do that it becomes very obvious. I think they called it a cliche because how ridiculous idea it was not because its super common.
