Bigger Beasts of the Black

Monday, December 8, 2008

So last Monday, I introduced you to the Land of Black Blood and listed a few of the indigenous creatures that dwell in this eerie underground world. But things like ghost bats and ether frogs and stirge hounds are small potatoes; they barely warrant stats at all when you're talking about an adventure for high-level characters. So you can bet that in Pathfinder #18's bestiary that there are quite a few strange and creepy creatures that should give the PCs a run for their money. Pictured here are but two of them—the earth-based shaitan genie and the thrice-envenomed demonic Xacarba, illustrated by Tyler Walpole.
