In 1992, GDW published Dark Races Volume I, a compendium of creatures
for our valiant Minion Hunters to face. One interesting thing about this book
is the format in which it was presented: the creatures and accompanying art were
contributed by many different writers and artists. Alas, GDW never created
the obvious follow-up volume.
I would like this page to ultimately serve as a fan-supported compendium
of beasties and bad-asses. Click on "Submit a Creature" anywere on this page to
find out how you can contribute original creatures from your games.
Dark Races Volume II
Beasties
As the Dark Conspiracy book points out, these creatures can't quite be called animals, since
many of them might be plants, or mechanical in nature. Essentially in game terms, Beasties are creatures
without Intelligence. They react more on instinct or programming than any inherent evil.

NPC's
Sometimes, the GM will have an NPC who grows beyond the simple function of background
noise for the adventure. Sometimes they take on lives of their own, and become akin to the
GM's "character" in the game. With so much invested in these characters, it seems a shame
that they be relegated to only one game.

Minion Hunter Cells
Recently the question ran through one of the Dark Conspiracy news groups about party composition.
All the GM's responded with the generic makeup of their groups. I started thinking, wouldn't it
be great to compile that list in a single place?
