- A new antagonist of epic proportions for your campaign: Canker! This entity lurks in the bowels of the underground. Some see it as a deity, others as a cancer gnawing at the world from the inside. Canker takes shape in many creatures of all CRs embodying its two aspects: the Hideous Scourge and the Dislocating Sublime.
- Blackwater: A threat hailing from cosmic depths, spreading through the Netherworld via the efforts of Aboleths and aberrations.
- Familiars for your characters. Last but not least! This new Complete Monster Compendium features 13 new familiarsavailable to player characters such as the Opaline frog, the Flying soldier beetle, or the deep tick… !
- New playable species and new options: 5 playable species, 11 subspecies, and new options for character customization, featuring new handicaps, feats related to the book’s species, and magic items.
- Archetypes. Game leaders who design their own adventures and campaigns will sooner or later need to tweak available creatures or create new ones. This second volume of Creatures includes 5 new archetypes that can be applied to existing creatures, allowing for the creation of customized antagonists, allies, and encounters based on existing creature profiles.
- Varied ingredients and resources for your next campaign into subterranean locales. Cultures of the Netherworld; dangers and wonders of the underground; daily life presented bit by bit across the book to favor immersion, guidelines on creating a party of Netherworld natives, resources on isolated languages and dialects… Creatures: Complete Monster Compendium 2 is much more than a catalog of monsters to defeat. It offers a full-fledged world, featuring potent ingredients to design your next campaign and covering 3 very different styles: Horrific dark fantasy, Twilit wonder, and Mystical science fantasy.
- 20 Netherworld Perils: Subterranean worlds are fascinating, but can also be highly hazardous! Perils are environmental dangers akin to large-scale traps, most often natural: avalanche, blizzard, ash storm… or simply altitude sickness! Perils are one of our original creations, and were designed to add a new, thrilling aspect to your games. May they bring you and your players a lot of fun, tension, and challenge! Creatures 2 features 20 new Perils: 5 Perils of the mines and caverns (including several ones with adjustable dangerousness), 7 Perils of the depths, and 8 supernatural Perils of the Netherworld.
- Modular system. Creatures uses the modular system, a collection of optional rules ranging from epic to gritty, allowing you to fine-tune the atmosphere of your campaign. Each modular rule comes with its associated icon.
