Below is a sample of some of the beings featured in the guide.


Drakhume
Noble, egotistical, and always fashionable, the Drakhume are dragon-blood relatives of the Reptile Men race.

Sarcophage
These vicious stone-life desert dwellers may yet be coaxed into revealing secrets long lost to others.

Mesmerien
As cunning as their Octopus kin, the Mesmerien have a natural talent for hypnosis and a culture that prizes deceit.



Panglamoura
Giant pangolins with the uncanny ability to create mirror duplicate images of themselves.

Corpse Butter
This giant slime dwells in rocky crevices, from which it snares prey and draws them in to a crushing demise.

Aethstra
Formed from the "fifth element" aether, these elementals are as rare and mysterious as the substance from which they spring.
The Book of Uncommon Beings is written and designed by Howard A. Kistler. Illustrations are by Michela Da Sacco.
