This mechanical framework combines plates of iron and dull brass. Interlocking screws vibrate and tubes full of arcane fluids pump as this metal beast takes a heavy step forward. The clockwork suit is a mechanical body with oversized arms and hands used mainly for heavy labor. Wire, tubing, and sprockets line a cast-iron frame plated […]

As the halfling stepped from the shadows, the ground covering snapped shut, engulfing him in a thick, green pod. The struggle ended in seconds, for the paralytic secretions acted quickly and his body proved unresponsive. However, he quickly learned that he could still feel everything. The green trap is a large carnivorous plant that grows

Before you hovers a black blob with two large, bat-like wings and a huge reptilian eye in its center. Whipping wildly behind it are three long tails, each terminating in a nasty stinger. Occasionally, when an evil soul is passing into its eternal torment, something happens to shatter it. Each of these soul fragments becomes

The earth beneath you shakes, heralding the approach of a massive construct. It wields a greatsword the size of a castle tower and shifts as if the metal it were made of had a life of its own. The Centurion is a unique construct, crafted by twisted, genius artificers. On first inspection, it’s a mere

The air shimmers around the charcoal-skinned, child-sized creature before you. It smiles a wide grin with a mouth full of needle-like teeth. Then it screams and throws a ball of fire at you.

Across the jagged floor of the vast cavern moves a herd of pony-sized insects. Their long antennae move ceaselessly, probing the herd’s path. At the back of the herd walk four deep gnomes. They nudge slower bugs with quarterstaffs, urging them to keep up with the rest of the herd. Meatles are large insects resembling

A metallic, barrel-shaped, quadrupedal contraption systematically makes it way along the underground passageway. It pauses suddenly as the mechanical “head” on top spins around, pointing a glowing red gemstone and an odd-looking nozzle in your direction. Sewer sweeps were created ages ago to keep sewers and underground chambers clean of vermin, slime, mold, fungi, and

Poised on all fours, ready to strike, this gangly beast of matted fur and bony protrusions is barely as large as an ocelot. Nevertheless, the sheer savagery in its four slit-like eyes hints that it is more dangerous than its size suggests. Few predators are as feared as the notorious gut tiger. Rather then shred

Count yourself lucky if all you got this year was a lump of coal… __ In cities dominated by urban sprawl, where the smokestacks of industry billow smog enough to block the midday sun, where poverty and hardship reign over the mass of commoners, little more than slaves to factories and ironworks, the chimney daemon

For an experienced adventurer, the awe and horror of the living dead has long since faded. Zombies seem commonplace and ghouls are just another form of sewer trash. But when a skeleton with bones clad in decaying iron turns a sword to rust, the adventurer again knows fear. The Pathfinder Roleplaying Game Bestiary introduced a
