Monstrous Repository
Coldbrand - The Tyrannosaurus Rex
Everything alive in the Verdant Shroud carries a little light. The coldbrand is the hole in it, and by the time you understand what you are looking at, you are already standing inside its reach.
Cinderback - The Giant Ape
He stands, drums his chest, and fills the air with orange dust. That is the warning. Everything after it is a choice somebody made.
Sapscald - The Wood Woad
Fire is what the Shroud runs on. Bring some to this thing and you are feeding it, not fighting it.
Grennoch - The Korred
Everything green in the Verdant Shroud is standing on something that burned. Grennoch is the one who lit it.
Wickthieves - The Swarm of Ravens
The Shroud lights itself at night. Bring a torch anyway, and something with a thousand wings will come put it out.
Vurrok - The Worg
He won't howl. Howling is for country where sound carries. He'll walk up close and make you an offer.
Glass Viper - The Giant Poisonous Snake
The ash out here swallows every sound. So when you hear one thin chime of glass, you have already stepped too close.
Voskarr the Work-Fed - The Salamander
The vent breathes when the work is good. When it isn't, something climbs out of it.
Tharrek the Unproven - The Sword Wraith Commander
It isn't hunting you. It's waiting for a verdict - and it will not let you walk away without giving one.
Anvilbrow - The Triceratops
You will hear it grazing a mile off. Turn the wagons then, not when you can see the frill.
Carrionwing - The Giant Vulture
She isn't waiting for you to die anymore. She's decided to help.
Thistlewick - The Boggle
It used to just hide your shoes. Now it wears your mother's face.
