I would suggest begging Kelsie for a copy of her excellently laid out
and well indexed bestiery which has the benefit of some added mythical
creatures if your are looking for a bestiery

Subject: [dq] Bestiary
Sourcing a bestiary is a bit of a problem for some GMs.
There are some who use the DQ II rules, some who use the Unofficial GM
Guide (available in PDF from several places), some who use
internet-generated resources (the bestiary in "Poor Brendans Almanac" is
one of the better copies), and some who use photocopies. I understand
that Ross was working on a bestiary a few months ago, but haven't heard
anything recently.
I have a copy of the source text of the bestiary used for the Unofficial
GMs Guide, scanned from the DQ II rulebook. I have tidied up the
scanning errors and reformatted it slightly to make it easier to read.
It is available in PDF (for using), or in Word (for criticising).
Ditto the Demons / ArchAngels.
In both cases, I've made a couple of changes as it was primarily
intended for my own use. If people actually want to use these copies, I
have a list of the changes, and they can be reversed easily if the
changes aren't desirable.Most of the changes are - tidied the
aspect/magic summary table, added human & shapechanger, updated
halfling, added half a dozen mammals (mainly adventuring creatures -
rhinos and wolverines, not sheep & walrus), and gave Horses MD like the
rest of the hooved mammals. I've also restructured vampire & dragon with
no intention of changing their meaning, to make them easier to read.
Happy to email them to people. If someone is keen, I can send them the
PDFs to post on a web site. Stephen? Mandos? Anyone? Or is this also
copyright stuff?
Collectively, the bestiary and demon guide are 1.1 Mb.
Have a great weekend.
Andrew
