Since we have Deskari Lord of the Locust Host as a Demon Lord I figure the Locust Swarm is only a matter of time. Also the Formians and other outsiders I would say are likely candidates for Bestiary 3. For me the must haves on this list are: Aquatic Elf, Owl Giant, Phantom Fungus, and Sea Cat.

Any chance of getting a one page pdf supplement with an official Aquatic Elf stat block. No art required just the rules, and you could even throw in a stat block for the Gillmen too. Just a thought. :)

Gillmen will be in the upcoming "Inner Sea World Guide" (along with a few minor tips about aquatic elves).

We will get to the formians (at least some of them) eventually, probably when we decide what to do about Castrovel, the "Green Planet" in Golarion's star system. The creatures are, after all, adapted from Ralph Milne Farley's "Radio Man" stories, which were interplanetary adventures set on the planet Venus.

Cool, that's a nice bit of lore and I like how you folks like to stay true to the source.

Another tricky thing about formorians is that we can't really do up one... we have to do all six or however many there are. That means, at minimum (and assuming a 1 page intro and a 2 page entry for the highest CR one) 8 pages of content to include them. Makes them kind of hard to just "drop" into a monster book, unfortunately... especially when that monster book already has the Lawful Neutral outsider race already represented.

As Erik said, though, we'll get to them eventually!

This is great news! Can't wait to see the Gillmen, and hopefully some rules about turning an elf aquatic. :)

What about the Hippogriff !!!!

*looks at B2* dammit, they did really include them *mutters*

Oh well, here's to Dire Weasels !


For me the must haves on this list are : Grimlock and Digester.

The Grimlock should have some kind of sonic vulnerability, and maybe he should be a little stronger (more than 2 Hit Dice, maybe 4), to distinguish himself from the gnoll and the bugbear. After all, we do need some strong medium sized humanoids, something that the Bestiary I lacks (I don't know about the Bestiary II). Give him some DR/- maybe, to reflect is "barbarian" nature.

The Digester, I don't know why I mentionned him. He's just really weird and really funny, haha. :P
