Monster Sub breeds Three

These have been going well and inspiring some new monsters too. Id rather modify existing monsters than make up endless new ones or create one shot monsters. Have printed Xor character sheets for game. Will hand colour some and scan next so will have colour and B&W versions. Will try and expand xor community gen and pre create a bunch for a d100. Possibly some kind of online random generator maker will help. Gun rules for my setting on the way as all guns do about a d8 is boring. With lots of multi barreled ones and blunderbus scatterguns and small artillery and grapnel guns and whaling harpoon guns you can put on wagons and blow away dragons with. d100 One Room Dungeons might be a goer too.

This is my third attempt to rewrite monster manual now. Id like something tablified for one hand and descriptions in booklet separate. Simpler descriptions with types grouped together. I can see this I will be able to edit in with my earlier versions.

No way do dolphins get a page when i can read a encyclopedia or a children's animal book. In DnD dolphins and whales are fucking fish like people thought they were for most of history.

So today's boring old monsters....
