----------------------------------------------------------
Hellhound--Fast, fierce, and capable of devouring a human 12 times its size in
3 1/2 seconds. Normally inhabits burnt-out or enchanted woods and rearely
ventures beyond its own turf, even in pursuit of prey. Hellhounds are
purple-white-gray-red-gray.
Dryad--Also called 'tree sprite'. Beautifully shy. Many spend lifetime under
one tree. If coaxed, may reveal location of forest treasures. Will fight only
in self defense and only in large numbers, pelting foes with tons of rose
petals. When awake, dryads are black-gray-white-red-red.
Bloodworm--Found in shallow underground pools;often mistaken for mossy
boulders. Pointy, retractable fangs can extend up to 32". Most bloodworms are
repelled by the smell of boiled chives. Bloodworms are usually
white-gray-black-red-black.
Rotgrub--Less than 1" long;smells like very cheap old cheese;impervious to all
forms of magic. Hide in food until ingested, then burrows straight to victim's
brain and feeds for years before death mercifully arrives. Common household
rotgrubs are gray-red-gray-purple-red.
Yipple--Master of disguise, able to change form. In the wild, may bite if
disturbed. Violently allergic to many kinds of animal wastes. Tame yipples
make wonderful pets, but should be kept out of cookie jars when guest visit.
On a white background, yipples look gray-purple-white-purple-black.
Kobold--Lives in small tribes in caverns and very dark forests. Similar to
paskald, except middle toe is shorter than toes that flank it;also, far more
belligerent. If attacked, will fight back; if not attacked, will fight back
anyway. Coloration: red-purple-black-purple-red/
Surmin--Characterized by malodorous breath, lice-ridden fur, and general
repulsivness. If allowed to approach close enough, can bore its victim to
death by reciting Greater Borphee County Penal Codes. A newly-shaved surmin is
black-black-purple-red-black.
Nabiz--A nabiz is mostly mouth, and that is mostly teeth. Instinctively
attacks enemy's weak point. Contrary to folklore, cannot fly, but leaps vast
distances. Is repulsed by the color blue, hence that colors popularity in
adventurers' garb. Nabiz are purple-black-black-black-red.
Dorn--Can paralyze with a single glare from its powerful eys. Range 20' for
adults. Dorns commonly inhabit crags and shadows near cliff bases. According
to the last words of dying explorers, dorn beasts are
gray-purple-black-gray-white.
Grue--A sinister lurking presence in the dark places of the earth. Favorite
snack is unwary Enchanters. Fears light: No grue has ever been seen by the
light of day. Toxicologits believe that grues are probably
black-black-red-black-purple.
Brogmoid--In rare cases, these squat creatures can achieve intelligence level
of a 3-year old human. Often seen in wild foraging in huge packs for edible
rocks. Live much longer in captivity; can even be trained to perform simple
tasks. Usually red-purple-red-black-purple.
Orc--Erstwhile warring race who became civilized through their fondness for
computer adventure games. Although a small faction (HiRes Orcs) enjoy graphics,
the vast majority (Orc from Zork) prefer text games. By the light of a CRT
screen, orcs are red-gray-purple-gray-red.
Have fun.
