Monster Menagerie: Ravagers of Time

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Welcome to Ravagers of Time, the eleventh in our Monster Menagerie line of bestiaries. Each volume in this line presents a small set of monsters tied to a single theme, but spread over a range of CRs. For Ravagers of Time, that theme is time, and all the complex and convoluted creatures that manipulate, eat, and travel through time. In addition to timekeeping terrors from chronal dragons to wampus cats, we provide an insight into the nature of time itself, with a brief description of the timestream (the medium through which time flows) and some items, feats, and spells tied to time.

Fans of Rogue Genius Games’ two books on characters who manipulate time (The Genius Guide to the Time Thief and The Genius Guide to the Time Warden) will recognize many concepts from those books used here, and this list of time-sensitive monsters can easily be used to add a heavier time-element to a campaign. However, while these monsters work well with time thieves and time wardens, those books are not required to make use of this one. Each volume can stand on its own, or they can compliment each other in a campaign that includes all of them.

Like all Monster Menagerie books, this one covers a range of CRs, from the annoying and hard-to-pin-down CR 1 leap insect, to the CR 22 lord of time, the Chronal Dragon Great Wyrm. In a campaign where temporal magic is nearly unknown, a GM may consider treating all temporal creatures as gaining a +1 circumstance bonus to their CR for having powers players won’t expect, and may have more than normal difficulty .

So check your watch, set a schedule, and flip through these entries as quickly as possible, because with the timestream assassins literally killing time, you may be in a bigger hurry than you think.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
