Creator’s NoteWow! I never imagined that I would create not one volume of the Baby Bestiary®, but two! This just goes to show how great a supporting fan-base can be. I can’t thank you all enough for the effort, energy and enthusiasm that you have put into helping make this project a reality. For those picking this book up for the first time, you will find this a labor of love. A love for the animals and mythologies which have given us fuel to run our amazing adventures. But rather than destroying the creatures from which many fantastic myths and legends have spawned, I want you to take this as an opportunity to be inspired, to want to interact and have complex relationships with these great creatures.
This book is intended to be system- and setting-neutral, meaning there will be no ability scores, DCs, stat blocks, or spells listed (we’re making a separate book for that). With two amazingly illustrated books, and plans for a brand line with new adorable creatures, short stories and more, I hope you can enrich your life and games with the cute monsters within these pages.
Thank you for picking up this book and supporting our efforts.
Andreas Walters
