15 You feel a lump in the pit of your stomach.
19 It has been enchanted to dance through the air and attack under its own
24 Once the primary guardian serpent of a legendary treasure hoard, he was disgraced after thieves looted it while he slept. He now slithers about the dungeon, seeking vengeance against all would-be looters. He is an accomplished spellcaster, but no more deadly in melee combat than others of his kind.
29 A tall (for her kind) and beautiful warrior, as vain as she is quick. You can't help but notice both her exotic weapon and graceful movements. She searches the dungeon for aesthetically pleasing objects to surround herself with.
33 Once a mighty and renowned Titan, his arrogance was his undoing. Now he is corrupt and tainted, a powerful demon who lords over the frozen wastes of Cocytus. His gigantic body seems as though it would be easily struck by your attacks; unfortunately, it also seems like it would remain unscathed by all but the strongest of them.
37 One of the arch-demons who dwell in the depths of Hell.
41 A powerful, belligerent Efreet. (Is there any other kind?)
45 A particularly fat and ugly orc. He seems to have scavenged a pair of rainbow-coloured suspenders from somewhere. They're not helping.
49 An ancient lich. The air around his shrouded form crackles with evil energy.
53 A violent and wrathful demon, Cerebov appears as a giant human covered in shining golden armour and wielding a huge twisted sword.
57 Chuck the stone giant loves rocks, the bigger the better! Over the years, he has managed to amass quite the collection, including some rare, enchanted ones.
61 A withered old gnoll with a long silver beard, wielding a quarterstaff and wearing a cloak. He looks like a figure from mythology! Wait, is his beard held on to his ears with hooks?
65 The lord of the Iron City of Dis.
69 The Pits of Slime used to be a thriving civilization, and Dissolution was the prophet of their god. When the city was overtaken by its current residents, only Dissolution survived, for he alone turned faithfully to the Slime God. Dissolution became a tremendous mass of acidic ooze, yet retained his intelligence. He is filled with hatred for anything that can hold a form.

78 descript = descript .. " D"
81 descript = descript .. "espite his hatred of it, he takes to water like a fowl."
88 A beautiful but vain elf with an aptitude for magic and little else. His skills are the perfect complement of his twin sister Duvessa's fighting prowess.
92 A plain-looking elven fighter who is technically brilliant in many forms of combat, but over-confident because of it. She is complemented by the magical skills of her twin brother, Dowan.
96 A jealous sibling of Sigmund (indeed, the youngest of nine brothers). He has none of Sigmund's skills in magic, but makes up for it with his skills in fighting and a canny head for money. He is eager to prove his superiority by killing hapless adventurers with his expensive flail and quick wit.
100 A beautiful spriggan woman, the ruler of spriggans who live here. She wears an opalescent outfit made of dragon skin that shimmers with all colours.
102 The air around her shows hints of many powerful enchantment spells she cast on herself.
106 A fearsome arch-fiend who rules the deathly netherworld of Tartarus.
110 A comely spellweaver.

118 An apprentice summoner with a flowing moustache. He has funny ideas about honour.
122 A stout warrior who once bested a powerful lord of Pandemonium in combat, gaining control over the demon's realm and thanes. The battle left her with a deep facial scar, one that she carries as a badge of honour rather than a symbol of shame.
126 A svelte fighter-mage who wears a gold-rimmed monocle and seeks a suitable and worthy opponent. You likely do not fit the bill.
130 A voracious and surprisingly intelligent slug, devoted to eating everything and everyone he comes across, with a pointed hat perched rakishly atop his head. He acquired the hat the same way he acquired his intelligence and his knowledge of spells: by consuming their former owner, a powerful wizard.
134 A huge, three-headed, winged arch-demon, guardian of the gates of Hell.
138 A shadowy figure clothed in profound darkness.
142 An inefficient shadow imp previously employed as a torturer in one of the lower circles of Hell. He has a tendency to complain and make inane statements.
146 A tough-looking gnoll, wearing the pelt of one of his former war dogs.
150 A middle aged bounty hunter, hired to kill you. He is in a hurry.
154 A small and twisted goblin, wearing some ugly blue rags.
158 A cunning merfolk water-witch, who uses her beauty and spellcraft to draw unwitting adventurers to their deaths.
162 An evil apprentice sorceress. She entered the dungeon hoping to find a quiet, secluded place where she could study the darker arts without being disturbed.
166 Once a simple village peasant, Jory found himself transformed in undeath into a powerful creature. Through the countless centuries unlived since then, he has honed his skills in combat and magic, amassed great wealth and many possessions, and now resides in a stonily quiet Tower of Silence. He's not about to let any puny adventurers ruin his hard work, so those who encounter him should beware!

174 An ugly elderly figure, dressed in Druidic clothes.
178 A tall bounty hunter.
182 An incredibly powerful emperor on the way to godhood.
186 A beautiful enchantress.
190 An ancient, outsized serpent-like water beast that possesses numerous heads. The poets mention more heads than vase-painters can paint, poisonous venom coming out of its eyes, and that this hydra is a guardian of an entrance to the Underworld. What of this is true, you do not know.
194 An ancient and strangely serene demon. It regards you coldly from the huge glowing eye in the centre of its forehead.
198 A tall and gaunt figure, draped in long robes which flow as if alive.
202 An unusually heavily armoured spellcaster.
206 This tall and powerful demon is Mara, Lord of Illusions, mighty among dreamers. He is capable of creating intricately detailed illusions, able to mislead even the minds of the mightiest and most brilliant spell-casters.
214 A mysterious warrior princess from a far-off kingdom, on a quest to retrieve the legendary sword 'Entarex'. Countless have been the admirers who, thinking about Maud, forgot everything else.
218 A sly, conniving thief.
222 There was once a human priest named Mennas. He travelled far and wide preaching of Zin to any who would listen, going even so far as to travel into Orcish lands, preaching to orcs about laws and mercy. By all accounts the orcs were not happy with Mennas. They demanded he swear Beogh was the one true god, and when Mennas remained silent they cut out his tongue.
224 Whether or not this angel is that same Mennas is something of a mystery, as he seems to have difficulty speaking.
228 A fair and noble ruler of an ancient and mighty kingdom, mummified after an early death. His faithful priests subsequently infused him with great and powerful magic, seeking to grant him eternal life. Now he is forgotten and reduced to mouldering bandages and dry, brittle bones.
232 A weirdly glowing figure, dancing through the twisted air of Pandemonium.
236 A demonic skull rolling along the dungeon floor.

244 A withered sorceress, exceptionally ugly even by orc standards.
248 A black centaur warrior with a malicious look in the eyes.
252 A brilliant scientist obsessed with electricity. In his attempts to perfect his electric golem, he was involved in a terrible accident, and now phases in and out of reality.
256 A relaxed peace-in-death cultist with a healthy tan and a soothing voice. He doesn't really care if it is you or him who dies - "both" would probably be the best option.
260 While kobolds are normally slaves, Pikel's rough life, selfish ambition and large stature have caused him to rise up and become a slaver himself. He is on his way to the Orcish Mines to sell his wares, a selection of timid humans that cower with every crack of his whip.
264 A cyclops shepherd, he is very protective of his charges.
268 A handsome prince before he was cursed, he now adventures for a cure.

276 An unusually thin troll.
278 You feel a lump in the pit of your stomach.

294 The bane of all young adventurers, Sigmund combines delusions of greatness with nasty tactics.
298 A hairy troll, angry and mean.

308 A mean-looking human fighter who likes to kill, and not much else.

363 A very large constrictor snake.

375 A baby ant. Isn't it cute?
379 A placid, sacred bull of Elyvilon. Beware, evildoers, as surely it will turn on you!
383 A frosty blob of bright blue cytoplasm.
387 While this juvenile form of the alligator does not have crushing jaws, nor does it have the strength to put on massive bursts of speed, it is more limber than the adult form, and its milk-tooth is still very sharp.
391 An oddity of nature, ball lightning bounces around behaving almost, but not quite, entirely unlike regular lightning.
395 A lumpy reddish fungus covered in knobbly rhizome growths, growing well in the dank underground dungeon.

447 A twisted little sprite-goblin. Beware of its magical tricks!
451 A huge undead abomination, pieced together from the broken bones of many dragons.

463 A huge grey beetle with an almost impenetrable rocky carapace.
467 A slimy mauve worm with a greatly distended head.
471 A viscous liquid, flowing along the floor in search of organic matter to corrode.
475 A woody plant that, unlike trees, can be removed even with bare hands. It looks dry enough to be easily set on fire, and it isn't very dense so arrows are likely to go past it.
479 A mass of blackened twigs wreathed in orange flames. The walls and floor surrounding it are covered in scorch marks.
483 A very large and fat hairy bee.
487 A large multicoloured butterfly with beautifully patterned wings, fluttering incongruously through the darkness of the cave.

564 Once in a very great while, there is a deep elf that scorns magic and devotes herself to the study of the sword. This is such a champion of the deep elves, wielding two blades with lethal grace.
568 This is a deep elf well-versed in destructive magic.

594 deep elf master archer
596 This legendary deep elf archer has devoted a lifetime to the pursuit of archery, dismissing magic as a frivolous distraction.

604 While not a natural habitat for most elven-kind, the deep elves managed to settle in this dreary cave. This is a common soldier of the deep elves.

612 This deep elf is skilled in the darker aspects of summoning.
616 A pale and unnaturally tough-skinned dwarf.
618 deep dwarf death knight
620 A deep dwarf warrior-priest of Yredelemnul, chanting unholy homages.
628 While this fellow looks like any of the human-like races, the aura of power betrays some divine ancestry. And with the good gods (at least officially) decrying fornication, betting on the good nature of this individual may be unwise...
632 A long and bloated body, supported by dozens of short legs and topped with an evil-looking head.
636 This fellow looks mostly like a human, yet you sense something evil about him.
640 With thick skin, even thicker legs and a memory to die for, this enraged pachyderm would like nothing more than to kill you and feast on your remains.
644 Before you stands a scale-covered humanoid with a reptilian tail and small wings.
646 draconian annihilator
648 This draconian, in addition to its deadly breath, can use powerful conjurations to destroy anyone who dares to stand in its way.
652 While formidable in combat, this draconian specializes in summoning hordes of drakes against you. While lesser in power than full-sized dragons, they are nevertheless deadlier than most creatures you can meet.
656 Protected by both its thick scales and its skill in use of weapons and armour, this draconian is a dangerous opponent.
660 While lacking the claws possessed by dragons it was created from, this draconian doesn't need weapons to defeat you, for its arms and spiky tail are mighty indeed.
664 Capable of roasting you and any other interlopers to a crisp, these guys really enjoy making sure you are well done.
668 A master of the warp, this draconian can translocate both itself and you to any place, either on this world or outside of it.
672 This draconian draws its power from the worship of dark gods known to neither men, dwarves, elves nor orcs.

746 One of the most fearsome denizens of any Hell. A huge and powerful demon wreathed in hellfire, with great scaly wings.
750 These crabs are prized for their brilliantly jewelled shells. The rarity of these shells is only enhanced by the vicious, fiery nature of the animal, and their almost supernatural ability to expel massive quantities of flames.

758 A huge ruddy humanoid with bright hair.
762 A swirling cloud of flame.

794 A hideous stone statue come to life.
798 A vile interdimensional predator that feeds on the life force of living beings. The few who have seen one and lived say it resembles an enormous spiny moth. Its bizarre lifecycle involves the production of ambrosia, much valued by gods and wizards.
802 An undead humanoid creature, created from a decaying corpse by some unholy means of necromancy. It exists to spread disease and decay, and gains power from decaying corpses in the same way a necrophage does.

818 A huge black beetle with great crunching mandibles and very hard chitinous armour.

830 It has a lot of legs.
834 A large brown cockroach. I call him 'Gregor'.
838 A giant eyeball, with a captivating stare.
842 Unlike its mundane counterparts that are merely half an inch big, this enormous flying bug is large enough to be ridden by some spriggans. Its glow, though, is faint enough to be hardly visible.
846 It probably didn't get this big by eating little insects.
850 A lizard with pads on its toes allowing it to cling to walls and ceilings, and huge, sharp teeth. It is many times larger than a normal gecko, yet its size belies its agility. It probably expects you to be no less tasty than its previous victims have been.
854 This is what happens when you give your pet goldfish too much food!
858 A huge blood-sucking leech. How horrible!
862 A large arachnid with vicious poisoned mouth-parts.

956 A large, nasty bear with grey fur. If provoked, it may become angry!
960 An ancient warrior, embalmed and cursed to walk in undeath for eternity.
964 Serpents are distinct and rare members of scaly society. They are light and swift like snakes, yet also intelligent like nagas. Their lack of hands, together with an extreme sense of duty, makes them renowned guardians. It is said that a guardian serpent would rather die in battle than leave anything to an intruder.
968 A small humanoid demon covered in brown hair. Watch out - it may have fleas!
972 This is a degenerate human, both mentally and physically similar to a child of perhaps ten, perhaps twelve years of age, yet looking older. It looks mischievous, as if prone to no good.
974 It definitely deserves an axe to the head.
978 Harpies have roamed these coasts as long as seafarers can remember. They strike fear in the hearts of all sentient beings, but not for their claws. It is their way to devour the food of the unwary, causing many a man to starve to death.
982 A huge black dog, with glowing red eyes and smoke pouring from its fanged mouth.
986 A heavily armoured warrior, in league with the powers of Hell, usually accompanied by other unsavoury beings of his ilk.

998 A frightful demon, covered in roaring hellfire.
1002 A hideous skeletal demon, with wings of ancient withered skin.

1010 A large creature with the hindquarters of a horse and the wings, head and talons of a great eagle.
1014 A larger and even uglier goblin, with an even worse temper to match. Many foolish young adventurers have underestimated the danger of crossing a hobgoblin and paid for it with their lives.
1018 A large, fat and very ugly pig.
1022 This dragon has been imbued with the power of the Gods! Its breath is blessed fire, and its claws burn with the sear of holy wrath.
1026 A fearsome hunting dog, lithe and alert. Its master must be long gone, for it looks dishevelled, and has a lean and hungry look.
1030 A remarkably nondescript person. How odd.
1034 The undead form of someone who died of starvation, this creature wants the same thing to happen to you!
1038 A great reptilian beast, distantly related to the dragon. It has many heads, and the potential to grow many more!

1046 A man-sized demon covered in glittering ice.
1050 Like a normal dragon, only white and covered in frost.
1054 One of the most terrible denizens of the many Hells, the Ice Fiend is a huge icy figure, covered in frost and wreathed in freezing air.
1058 An imposing statue carved in glistening ice. Freezing vapours swirl about it.
1062 A huge lizard with great crunching jaws.
1066 A small, ugly minor demon. Its fanged maw seems locked in a permanent malign grin, and its horns protrude obscenely from its scaly pate.
1070 A thin wisp of floating gas.
1074 A hideous humanoid figure with metal skin. While it lacks magical attacks and is slow of foot, it makes up for these failings with brute strength.
1078 A very heavy and apparently flightless dragon.
1082 A rare and powerful spirit from the elemental plane of earth, it exists in this world by inhabiting a hulking mass of iron.
1086 Huge, lumbering, and particularly dull, this rusting monolith packs quite the punch. It is quite possibly the largest giant you have ever seen.
1090 A huge animated metal statue.
1094 An ugly, twisted little minor demon with metal skin.
1098 A great troll, plated with thick scales of rusty iron.
1102 A small, dog-like scavenger. Packs of these creatures roam the underworld, searching for carrion to devour.

1114 A large spider with an extraordinary ability to leap to its prey from a great distance.

1122 A giant bee, bearing a deadly barb which can sting repeatedly.
1126 A small, powerless larva of a killer bee.
1130 A comical figure full of life and laughter. It looks very happy to see you... but is there a slightly malicious cast to its features? Is that red face paint or something altogether less pleasant?
1134 No one knows where kobolds originated. Some say they were the creation of an ancient demon-god, while others think they are household spirits gone bad. Yet another legend attributes their origin to cross breeding experiments, between dogs and humans, performed by wizards attempting to create an army with unwavering loyalty. They retain a small amount of canine agility. Kobolds look like small, greyish creatures with canine heads. Whatever their origin, this one is not happy to see you.
1138 A kobold who has learned to summon and direct demons.
1142 An enormous monitor lizard. It's more than capable of preying on large animals. Bits of fetid and rotting flesh from its last few meals are stuck in its teeth.
1146 A gargantuan sea monster, capable of devouring entire ships. It embraces them with its tentacles and draws them into the depths. Fortunately, the tentacles are too big to embrace a small creature like you. Wait, did I say "fortunately"?
1150 This poor rat was the subject of a wizard's terrible experiments! Who knows what it is capable of?
1154 A large and hideous form, created or summoned by some arcane process.
1158 An ice replica of a monster that is animated by the powers of necromancy.
1162 A large skeleton compelled to unlife by the exercise of necromancy.
