dragonewt Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 A new bestiary containing creatures with stats suitable for BRP (with some minor conversion) is now available. More details found at this link. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrHemlocks Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Can you sell printed versions? For it will use all my ink to print it out and the cost of replacing ink is too costly...more then cost of a printed book=O For this reason I shy away from PDFs...too much ink used to print those suckers!

Evilschemer Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 The illustrations are gorgeous! It looks like a book of very nice illustrations with descriptions and non-system-specific "game" stats.

Eric L. Webb Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 The stats are similar enough to BRP that there shouldnt be any problems porting them over.....man....the illustrations are some of the best ive ever seen. Are they going to publish this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragonewt Posted August 29, 2011 Author Share Posted August 29, 2011 It looks like a book of very nice illustrations with descriptions and non-system-specific "game" stats. They fit in well with BRP. The other game systems I immediately thought of using them with are Light Speed, Mekton (both stat/2), and of course Call of Cthulhu.

Jegergryte Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Nice! This is on my list now… I need crazy arse monsters for my campaign soon, this fits the bill perfectly. As a side-note: anyone know where I can find good stats for large, giant and gargantuan spiders for BRP? Quote "What about the future...?

rust Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 There are stats of a Giant Spider in the Basic Bestiary in the forum's download section. Although there is only one size of the creature, it would be easy to come up with smal- ler or bigger versions, Quote "Mind like parachute, function only when open."

Zit Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 The Trollpack from Chaosium's RQ2 and 3 of course, which contains lots af spiders and other gigantic arthropods.

rust Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Reminds me of the stuff you find on the speculative evolution sites. Judging from the creature which walked in from the garden yesterday evening, looked around for a while and then left in disgust, probably because there was no small pet as suitable prey for it, I am not at all convinced that this is about speculative evolution.

AikiGhost Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 Looks good, lots of odd creatures man of which could easily be used in Sci fi as well as fantasy games. One thing though I'd like to have an option to buy this in hardback from LULU or a similar PoD service. Will this ever be possible? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rpgstarwizard Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 LOL, what??? I thought most of europe had small critters. Let me tell you of the weird stuff I have seen. LOL. I love crypto games, problem is, that so many critters from medieval bestiaries and modern monsters ar little underrepresented. And now we get the wierd stuff, ala, Dungeons and dragons, more monsters for monsters sake. I have started working on both a "true" medieval bestiary for my fantasy brp group, and a modern North american folklore and mythology Bestiary for my modern group.

rpgstarwizard Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 Yeah even more critters. I wonder if GMs need even more critters, I am slowly converting critters from the White dwarf fiend factory stuff i copied generations ago. I have posted some other critters, but never hear comments if they are used etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jegergryte Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Rhonx Aibia … I like it, yet 20-30 damage in BRP sounds a bit too deadly… I will go properly through this, the art is lovely and the beasts … mmmm Quote "What about the future...?
