The Monster Alphabet
Designing monsters is as easy as A¸ B¸ C!
What foul beasts slosh and gibber in the furthest reaches of your skull? Unleash your demons with the Monster Alphabet¸ a compilation of monster design elements keyed to letters of the alphabet.
A is for Android¸ B is for Breath Weapon¸ C is for Crossbreed! Game masters of any rule system will find inspiration for creating strange¸ new abominations: random tables of traits¸ powers¸ and lore; awe-inspiring illustrations by your favorite fantasy artists old and new; and rolling handfuls of dice directly on monster generation diagrams.
The entries are accompanied by fantastic art from classic fantasy illustrators and are compatible with all fantasy role-playing games.
Featuring a foreword by noted designer Frank Mentzer!
Reviews:
- The RPG Pundit: "In any case¸ on the whole¸ the Monster Alphabet is a fantastically useful product to spice up any OSR or D&D game¸ particularly if you want to move a little bit (or a lot¸ depending on how often you use the book) toward the Gonzo."
- Skyland Games: "...the Monster Alphabet is 80 pages of awesome!"
