An exact breakdown of the 46 monsters:

  • 17 wholly new monsters.
  • 10 not included in official Shadowdark materials.
  • 19 reprinted from the Shadowdark Core Rules.

I might come to appreciate the reprints if you share your reasoning behind including them—e.g., do you find them particularly relevant as templates?

Hey there!

Thanks for asking about the breakdown of monsters in my zine!


I included the reasoning in the intro to the zine, but for everyone reading here I included all of the monsters from the Shadowdark core rules that I referenced in the monster-making examples so it's easy to reference them. The zine was designed as an instruction manual first and the bestiary was just a bit of an added bonus!

Thanks for your support

Hi Michael

Looking at the free GM Quickstart Guide, only 7 of the 19 reprints are included there, so it makes sense that you want your Zine to stand on its own.

I really enjoy the new monsters and the 27 pages on monster making!
