I am planning an adventure that involves the rakshaka from Bestiary. This one likes to use complicated words, so he would refer to himself not as a rakshaka, but with the name of his species. (The tiger-headed ones) I ran into a problem when I realised that, unlike his cousins in Bestiary 3, he didn't have a proper name. A quick check later and I realised that that was the same for all of the Bestiary monsters that were expanded upon in Bestiary 3. (An example would be the kyton) I was wondering if anyone knew the correct name.
