From publisher blurb:
This is not a supplement of monsters.
It’s a supplement of monsters who have been called to a higher purpose. This volume of Fascinating Characters presents a unique assembly of 10 monsters who have taken classes and jobs traditionally reserved for the standard fantasy races. Each one is paged separately for easy printout and use. Crafted for both gamemasters and players, this guide offers a library of intriguing NPCs and also serves as a foundation for players to mold their unique protagonists.
Aegir Stormheart, Tempest Giant Paladin: Born with storm control and a compassionate heart, he’s a majestic protector striving for harmony. His quest? To safeguard the balance of nature with the strength of thunder and the calm of rain.
Ironclaw, Minotaur Warrior Monk: Defeated by Monk Standing Rock, spared, and healed at Dawn’s Virgin Rays Monastery, the minotaur learned wisdom and peace over rage. Now, Ironclaw spreads the message of “Harmony Through Unmatched Might,” embodying strength balanced with wisdom.
Gruk the Wildheart, Troll Beastmaster: Unlike his solitary kin, Gruk communicates with forest creatures, protecting nature with his beastly allies. His towering presence, marked by tribal scars and piercing yellow eyes, embodies both fierceness and wisdom.
Marvin, Pistol Packin’ Garden Gnome: Originally a simple lawn gnome, Marvin was transformed by magic into a sentient adventurer after exposure to an urban wizard’s potions. Mistaking his new roommates’ RPG gaming for real quests, he’s now eager to assist, blending enthusiasm with a touch of humorous confusion.
Whether seeking a complex NPC to add depth to your narrative or a foundation for your character’s backstory, Fascinating Characters promises many possibilities. Dive in and let the adventure unfold!
