Monster of the Week: ?????
THIS INFORMATION HAS BEEN REDACTED UNDER THE PREROGATIVE OF DIRECTOR C. MOTET.Normally, we would replace the image with a picture of fluffy bunnies or something harmless, just for you, but the other Guild directors refused to allow us to replace the artwork.Sorry.~CStahl's Notes: I don't know what this thing is. I don't know why this thing is even in the book. I don't even know why the artwork is here.Please do not contact me about this, I have already been contacted.Art by: Dion...
Monster of the Week: Listless
Bannock's Guide to the Monsters of MejinaListlessSo Vasen really hate these things for some reason. Some religious thing. You won't be seeing any of Stahl's comments on this one, he bowed out because of that. Ah well, I don't blame the guy. We all got our demons.So the Listless are kind of like Woodwicks, but they're Vasen shaped. They drip tree sap everywhere from their necks as they walk, and the second it hits the ground it turns into amber. Some folks in the jewellery bus...
Monster of the Week: Kokeshi
Bannock's Guide to the Creatures of MejinaKokeshiMan, the nuts on this thing would make a Kinstal jealous. Not that I am, of course, I'm packing way more heat. It's kind of weird that they have parts anyway, they don't exactly bump uglies. These things just kind of walk around and live to be creepy. They don't eat or drink either, they just stare at you. And make fake noises at you.So typically, getting trampled by one of these things is the least of your worries. They have w...
Monster of the Week: Mycolith
Bannock's Guide to Monsters of MejinaMycolithThese poor guys need to get more sleep! Their eyes look about to fall out their heads.Mycoliths are some kinda living mushroom? Apparently some mage down in Maripol made them as a solution to their village's food shortage, but he's gone missing and these things have gone out of control, so I guess it didn't really work out.Mycoliths are pretty weak in a fight alone, or even in small groups, but there's a good bet that where there&#...
Monster Of the Week: Croaker
Bannock's Guide to the Monsters of MejinaCroakersMan, I hate these things. Pallidoads at least look sort of like a person, but these are just WEIRD. Almost look like they belong on another planet. Anyway, Croakers are some kind of monster that like to live in trees. They can't live outside of moist places, so keep watch for them in jungles and swamps.Croakers are already dangerous by themselves, but even without getting crushed to death by their huge bodies, you're not out of the woo...
Monster of the Week: Mimic Rat
Bannock's Guide to the Monsters of MejinaMimic RatYikes. Everybody hates these things, everybody knows them. It's almost redundant to include them, but since this manual is, as Stahl says, "comprehensive," I gotta do my due diligence and make sure it's all written down for posterity.Mimic Rats look like Needlemice, 'cept they aren't. Funny how that works, eh? I don't know why they look like Needlemice, but it sure is annoying. They're both equally dangerous in...
Monster of the Week: Sackcloth
Bannock's Guide to the Monsters of MejinaSackclothOkay so. I get it. I get they're scary.DON'T talk about the Sackcloth.Boy, how do I talk about something I can't talk about? Well, I guess I should try to be that thing Stahl always says. Obtuse, right?Don't talk about the thing, it knows. Don't look at the thing, it'll see you. Don't listen to the thing, it's a liar. Problem solved.Stahl's Notes:It's oblique.What's important to understand in situat...
Monster of the Week: Beeper
Bannock's Guide to the Monsters of MejinaBeeperBeepers beep. Very simple. They come in two flavours, large and not large. Large Beepers are four metres tall and very strong. Little Beepers are two metres tall, and still just as strong, if not stronger. I know it doesn't make sense, but keep it in mind.Beepers are dangerous, don't get me wrong, but... it's really hard to MAKE them dangerous. They mainly just sorta do their own thing. God save you if they catch you littering though...
Monster of the Week: Festerwort
Bannock's Guide to the Monsters of MejinaFesterwortMan these things stink something fierce. They're named after the plant they love eating the most, which is stupid in my opinion. Festerworts eat Festerwort because Festerwort is the Festerwort's favourite food. It sounds ridiculous, right? Like saying bowl a buncha times.So Festerworts are a mushroom creature about the size of a small child. They're omnivorous, but they mainly eat bushes and tree leaves, so they're a real pes...
Early Celebration
Riggan knew better than to let Carvy drag him into making merry again. At least, his mind did; forsaken by the third mug his hands tilted into his mouth. He wasn't quite sure how Carvy always made his senses leave him, but it kept happening nonetheless. From the first time they'd met thirteen years ago they'd been inseperable. One adventure too far, too many nights out in the wilds. They'd had each other's back through the absolute worst encounters. Which in full honesty was ...
Race Feature: The Vasen
The Vasen are a species born with magic crystals embedded in their bodies, that grow along with their age and their strength. The crystals manifest as large stones in the forehead, horns or as large, shockingly mobile tubes that grow out of their ribcage along their sides.They have the highest score of natural Rush, so they can spend all day casting spells, but as a tradeoff, theyre quite physically frail and dont put on muscle easily.Our contributing artist for today is: Galea
Monster of the Week: Schute
Bannock's Guide to the Monster's of LlamarkolosSchuteFinally we get to something good! Schutes are mainly harmless. I mean, they're as big as four Nalanjos, and they're as dangerous as any wild animal, but they're not ACTIVELY evil like some of the other critters in this guide. AND they happen to be absolutely delicious!Schutes are giant crustaceans that live in the desert. That makes it a bit of a hassle to actually GET one, but oh boy is it worth it. At a metre and a half h...
Monster of the Week: The Rook
Bannock's Guide to the Monsters of MejinaRook"Hoo boy, story time. So when I was a little pup and my family was caravanning the road between Maripol and Delbuk, we went up through the mountains. And we ran into one of these things. I had no idea what it was at the time, but all the adults kept muttering "Rook" under their breath and it seemed as good a name as any.This thing walked beside us the whole way through the mountains, and I mean WALKED. This four legged beast just, hopp...

Class Highlights: Brawlers
The Brawler embodies the "Spirit of Equity" and in all situations does everything within their power to ensure things are fair. At least, from their perspective. Might makes right, and theyre here to fight for what's right as long as theyre paid well. They'll do any job, no matter how tough, nor how debased, nor how dangerous. Using the Spirit of Equity, Brawlers have access to the Scales of Warfare, a passive effect that is constantly active.Scales of Warfare:The Brawler manages...
