Nice Mothership threats to use, love the use of art. Great utility to use statues as a vector to get these things into any game.
(+) Excellent use of pre-made art to create a cohesive aesthetic
(+) Great diegetic descriptions of the entities to give a sense of what they do
(+) Plentiful tools to get players into finding these entities in an appropriate space
A fun little mini-bestiary, containing four eldritch horrors and a spaceship. The layout and presentation is good, with amazingly unsettling art pieces, and the horrors are easy to drop into a game.The text could use a line editor, as the sentence structures can feel a bit clunky at times, and does not quite fit the in-world corporate report tone the pamphlet is going for, but this is a minor nitpick.
I really like the unconfirmed contact reports style bestiary, however I believe your entries greatly exceeds the letdown of the official bestiary.
Looks beautiful, and IMO does a good job at what it sets out to do.
They're just little guys, ya know? Love your art by the way.
nice work. very functional.
Really pretty work on a trifold bestiary, with four eldritch critters and a tiny (mapped-out!) spaceship. The layout and art are great! I think the Superb Soldier is an incredible little puzzle-monster for horror games, and the Specter's signature ability is one I'd really like to steal. The evil ball confuses the hell out of me, though!
