I'm going to be more-or-less offline for the next month and change, so I'm going to toss out the next few letters now. I'll try to get online when I can to mark of monsters that have been done, but I can't promise anything, so everyone needs to keep an eye out themselves.

[...]Let me indulge more on the subject of superstition.
One of the people who had the pleasure of travelling with me during my time outside Darkon was a well educated and rational halfling, a master crafter of pulvus ignea, who had the only defect to have developed in his life a rather... Lamordian view on religion.
He told me of an encounter he had before meeting me. He told me confuse words of "pure fear", "terrors", "tentacles and wings"... He told me of something that cornered him and the other companions in an old farm and seemed to grow stronger and larger with every passing minute they were trapped, frightned, in that house. To destroy the creature, he told me, they resolved in burning down the building.
As you can see, even the most rational persoan can be swayed by mere superstition: I can tell you the creature was nothing more than the illusion cast by an evil mage we had to fight some weeks later.
I am sure of it, since in all my travels, I never faced such a creature.

Feytouched
"Begone, demon in human form! Begone, with your deceptive skin of porcelain! Still now your breath that smells of a thousand blooms but reeks of brimstone! Shut now forever your eyes that glisten with stars but burn with hellfire! You are Blasphemy! You are not my daughter! Begone! May the woods take you and never return you back!"
-- polemic of Inquisitor Brian Guillachan against his newborn feytouched daughter, Brigdarrow, Tepest

Not only can the foul fey flay a man alive. With their malign magiks they can cause the poor wretch’s hide to rise up and wrench the remaining life from him. Although this is done only after the skin has been sent slithering off to deal with the fellow’s family and has returned with the grisly proof of the dasterly deed in tow.

Famine spirit (ravenous ghoul) [Monster Manual II]
After we were successful on our hunt of the Glutton of G’Henna, our first energies were put to cure poor Nikolas’s hand. But alas, no amount of curing could mend what those terrible jaws had done, and Nikolas’s broken hand was completely lost to him. I pity him but I’m sure his inner strength will help him face this challenge.
Then I searched our uncle’s paper on hungry dead. In these notes, I found something ghastly. There was once in Darkon a similar monster to the Glutton, a ghoul of insatiable hunger and terrible powers. The adventurer that told our uncle details on this creature said it was seen eating at least 50 corpses on a deserted battlefield, in less then a day! They engaged it in combat, but some of them were trembling when near the monster, as if it’s hideous presence was causing them pain. But the worse is that one of the fighters got bit in the head, and it was sliced from the man’s body. I shiver just to think of what much worse could have happened to our dear Nikolas.
