Chasing method of choice: Indestructably chasing youas far and wide as necessary, undeterred by monster, bandit or lethal natural environment, in order to tell you that cocking big ants have crapped up his town. Maintaining typical Bethesda blank-eyed zombie face the whole time.

18. The Croctopus
Chasing the crap out of you in: Donkey Kong Country (SNES)

Chasing method of choice: Hounding you across rooftops and along railways tracks, unfairly countering your flailing human athletics with cold hard steel armour and red hot lead.
