A byssal War
hound
When the hounds of war are unleashed upon the
planes of the Abyss, it is this monstrous crea-
ture that strides forth. The Abyssal War Hound
is both a wild denizen and a domesticate of the
vast abyss. Their aggressive nature makes them
excellent hunters and fighting dogs. Unlike the
“dog” we all know - the creature is not canine at
all and makes a generally poor companion, pet,
herder or guard. They quite easily forget almost
everything but their desire to eat and kill. Their
extra dimensional mouth means they can eat
and endless amount of creatures and never be
sated.

the end of its move.
Abyssal Maw There is no limit to the number
of creatures the Abyssal War hound can swal-
low. A swallowed creature that critically fails its
escape check goes into the warhound’s extra-di-
mensional belly and is no longer suffocating but
cannot escape until the hound is killed.

Horror
What stalks the coal hills near Darkkart, no one
can say. The few witnesses that have met the
Coal-Hills Horror describe it as a monstrous
warped human standing eight feet tall with one
enormous arm. The creature tends to approach
travelers and speak to them unintelligibly, grow-
ing more demanding and frustrated until he
finally attacks. Some think it intelligent, with a
need of some sort. At other times it will follow
travelers for miles and not approach.

The horror in truth is cursed with incredibly

acute hearing. Almost all sounds and voices are
painful to it. Most of its attacks are triggered by
too much talking. Those that engage in whispers
or low voices and avoid more than one person
talking at a time could in theory befriend the
beast.

The River Kingdoms are home to some Dhampir,

many of whom have risen to prominent posi-

If anyone thought to remark on his unusual
appearance they might think twice as Andrusko
and his family have one of the more prosperous
estates in the region. Count Andrusko ministers
to many as a traveling preacher who is well-
known in every landhold.

G rave Riser
The Grave riser is little understood,
even by necromancers. Like many undead, a
grave riser returns to the world due to some-
thing unresolved in life. Instead of coming back
as a ghost or spirit, their physical form comes to
life some years later in the form of a grave riser.
The foul being claws its twisted and warped body
out of the ground then seeks to kill relentless-
ly. Along the corrupted leyline of old Tsentarev
these mindless undead are more common occur-
rences and every home near a graveyard has a
story to tell.

creatures within 30 feet must make a willpower

critical failure the creature gains the paralyzed

troupes although some are noted to have been
lone traveling performers or street clowns. The
hallmark of such creatures is that they are never
seen without their make-up and almost never
break character. The Murder Clown uses its
position to stalk and kill isolated victims, of-
ten children. The Murder Clown is hard to kill,
often disappearing after having been slain. The
only true way to harm them is fire.
