Creature Types

Basic Monster

Mountain Lion CR 3

These great cats are common in the northern reaches of Traykon, both in the steppes and the mountains.

Giant Owl CR 5

This enormous owl has a silent gracefulness and wisdom about it despite its considerable size.

Wyvern CR 6

A dark blue dragon, its wings immense and its tail tipped with a hooked stinger, lands on two taloned feet and roars a challenge.

Plated Dragon CR 8

Sometime in the ancient past magical forces imbued a large land predator with the power of draconic blood. Although it has no spell like abilities or flight, these creatures are terrors on the open ground.

Domesticted Animals

Chicken CR 1/6

Chickens are prized for the hearty breakfast meals they provide if properly fed and cared for.

Sheep CR 1/4

Small towns and villages commonly keep sheep for food and fleece.

Goat CR 1/3

Goats are a common herd animal kept by several species and towns. Goats provide both milk and meat to those who keep them.

Aurochs CR 2

These large beasts serve as a major source of meat and milk.

Dune Wolf CR 3

This special breed of wolf is only encountered as the companion of the Bothrain, the Tuzsani mystics. The lupine appearance of these creatures makes hides their near human intellect. In combat, they are cunning foes who work well with their companions and often disable spellcasters first before moving on to the next, weakest opponent. Dune Wolves are capable of crudely speaking Vaslier, the tongue of the Tuzsani.

Elven War Horse CR 4

Breed by the L'sameliqu, the Wild Elves, these horses are heartier and live longer than any other breed of horse. They are treasures of the L'Sameliqu and outsiders are never allowed to possess one.

Humanoid

Gnoll CR Varied

A special nod needs to be given to the most common humanoid monster in Traykon. Where some campaigns elevate goblins or orcs to the status or primary opponents for humanoid habitations, in Traykon that threat is from the Gnoll hoards.

Merfolk CR 1/3

From the waist up, merfolk bear the torsos of well-built humans and delicate features reminiscent of elves and other humanoids tied to the natural world.

Locathah CR 1/2

Also known as fish-men, these creatures populate the deep ocean.

Lizardfolk CR 1

Lizardfolk are proud and powerful reptilian predators that make their communal homes in scattered villages deep within swamps and marshes.

Bugbear CR 2

The bugbear is the largest of the goblinoid races, a lumbering brute that stands at least a head taller than most humans.

Sahuagin CR 2

This scaly humanoid has a long, fish-like tail. Its arms and legs end in webbed claws, and its piscine head features a toothy maw.

Centaur CR 3

Legendary hunters and skilled warriors, centaurs are part man and part horse.

Undead

Skeleton CR 1/3

The pile of bones suddenly stirs, rising up to take on a human shape. Its long, bony fingers reach out to claw at the living.

Zombie CR 1/2

This walking corpse wears only a few soiled rags, its flesh rotting off its bones as it stumbles forward, arms outstretched.

Ghoul CR 1

Ghouls are undead that haunt graveyards and eat corpses.

Ghast CR 2

A ghast’s paralysis even affects elves. Ghasts roam in packs of their own kind or lead groups of common ghouls. The stink of death and corruption surrounding these creatures is overwhelming.

Shadow CR 3

The shadow is an undead horror, and as such has no goals or outwardly visible motivations other than to sap life and vitality from living beings.

Wight CR 3

Wights are humanoids who rise as undead due to necromancy, a violent death, or an extremely malevolent personality. In some cases, a wight arises when an evil undead spirit permanently bonds with a corpse, often the corpse of a slain warrior

Vampire Spawn CR 4

Spawned from greater Vampires, these spawn are seldom far from their masters. Still, they make formidable opponents.

Mummy CR 5

Created to guard the tombs of the honored dead, mummies are ever vigilant for those who would desecrate their sacred ground.

Wraith CR 5

Wraiths are undead creatures born of evil and darkness. They hate light and living things, as they have lost much of their connection to their former lives.

Vilkacis CR 6

Beings of pure malevolence and destruction, vilkacis arise from the souls of the most desperate and brutal werewolves as spirits burning with the need for bloodshed and vengeance. Specters of savagery escaped from remains tainted by lycanthropy, vilkacis desire to wear mortal flesh and again revel in the vicious ecstasy of hunting and killing.

Spectre CR 7

Spectres are evil undead that hate sunlight and living things. Most are the remnants of murdered or evil humans, their anger preventing them from entering the afterlife. Like ghosts, spectres haunt the places of their deaths, and seek to draw others into the lonely abyss of undeath.

Mohrg CR 8

Those who slay many over the course of their lifetimes, be they serial killers, mass-murderers, warmongering soldiers, or battle-driven berserkers, become marked and tainted by the sheer weight of their murderous deeds. When such killers are brought to justice and publicly executed for their heinous crimes before they have a chance to atone, the remains sometimes return to unlife to continue their dark work as a mohrg.

Phantasm CR 8

Phantasms are malevolent and sinister spirits that delight in the destruction of good-aligned creatures. While many undead creatures are the undead form of once living creatures, phantasms have no real material connection to living creatures; they are spirits born of pure evil. They are most often found haunting ruined temples or churches dedicated to evil gods, or dungeons constructed by evil creatures; any place where the stench of evil permeates the very air.

Vampire CR 9

Vampires are most often humans in origin but there is the possibility that other races fall afoul of these nightmare undead.

Mummy Lord CR 10

Many cultures practice the sacred art of mummification, though the sinister magical techniques used to imbue corpses with undead vitality are far less widespread. In certain ancient lands, such blasphemous techniques have been ref ined through centuries of ceremony and countless deaths, giving rise to mummies of terrible power.

Dybbuk CR 15

A dybbuk is a misplaced soul who has eluded judgment because of some great transgression or a pitiful suicide. Like a ghost, it lingers on in the mortal world, either trying to fulfill an insane need to right some great failure that has marked its soul for eternity or merely to spread the torment it is condemned to face for eternity.
