It is a suggestive work, but I see that it still has many things to refine and errors, especially in the Troika! statistics. The initiative for everyone is too high; it should be noted that each point of initiative represents an action in a combat turn, and most creatures have above 2, which is the norm, with many cases being as high as 8! On the other hand, the last Mien table (pp 205) has overlapping text, making it illegible.
Yeah I love the creativity of this module so much. The art adds beautifully to the evocative descriptions you give. Having stats translated into so many NSR games makes this highly versatile. I am also learning a good metric for translating other monsters on my own now.
However this has a TON of spelling, punctuation, and grammar errors. Sometimes I don't even know what you're trying to say. Makes it hard to read in areas.
Yeah, I'm aware of text errors. :( I do little revisions between adding creatures but there's lots of ground to cover and I rather spend time writing new creatures. You gave me an idea: maybe add a conversion guide for what's out of the codex?
I've thought about it, and while your suggestion here is a good idea, I'd recommend just SPaG checking your work and cleaning it up first. The latter is probably quicker for you anyways.

Thanks for the notice! The text is under revision, both as typing and clarity as well as stat blocks
hi there
Just wondering if any more community copies will be available?
Kind regards
hi there!
I add some every 10 sales, stay tuned ;)
excellent
THank you so much for participating in the program
Makes a big difference for people going through a hard time
Sure, mate :)
Do you have plans for physical copies when it’s complete?
Yeah, probably via drivethrurpg. With some discount to those who got the pdf.
Very cool, love the succinct info. I really hope I'll see it completed
Does this support Knave 1e, or just 2e?
It should support both.
Until the latest version, the monster stats guidances seems the same.
2E is adding more resources and options than really changing the ruleset itself.
correction suggestion: "Traits are things that may difficult things for you."
"Traits are things that add difficulty or complication."
"Obey it's creator command." should be "Obeys its creator's command."
"bloacks" should be "blocks"
"backstabb" should be "backstab"
"move in packs" should be "moves in packs"
"neighbhoors" and "neihgbours" should be either "neighbors" (US English) or "neighbours" (UK English)
"Tthe" should be "The"
"combustile" should be "combustible"
"Scracthed" should be "Scratched"
maybe replace "vicinities" with "environment", "environs", or "surroundings".
Oh! Thank you so much for the revisions!
I'll add them to release with the next 10 creatures.

That idea could have legs. I've been looking for a few days for a good OSE - Into The Odd converter.

This looks SO RAD! At this time, how many monsters are included?
Thanks! Currently there are 30! 70 will be added for a total of 100!
Is this no longer for sale?
Yes it is. I was changing some settings. Should be up now.
Thanks!
look so great! can we get this also in Pages PDF format?
Sure! I was waiting to see how long would take to someone ask for it!
thanks so much! looks like page #28 'Oozern' is missing art?
Weird. Pages has no missing art for me.
But now that you mentioned, Spreads has 2 missing.
ah! it's only on the Spreads, Monster #20: Ignea Order
Thanks! I fixed at the last update!
Dang this is a great idea
Oh also, do you mean to have 100 available at $7?
Glad you liked it!
Each sale adds a creature, to a max of 100 total.
If we reach that and you paid 7$, yeah, you'll have access to 100 :)
Edit: I noticed afterwards that there were 100 at the 7$ Tier instead of 10 ^^'
Very cool model for selling this - and I always love to see 24XX support!
Glad you liked it ^^
