Monster Smackdown

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Birds gotta fly, fish gotta swim, and a Slayer's gotta have something to slay. Fortunately for her, there's no shortage of vamps, demons, nasties, and Big Bads wandering around out there. And when the latté hits the fan, knowing an Acathla from a Gorch can save the world. The keys to combating these charmless creatures of nightmare are all here, in vivid detail.

 

Buffy: To make you a vampire, they have to suck your blood and then you have to suck their blood; it's like a whole big sucking thing.
-1.1 Welcome to the Hellmouth

Hey, nobody said living on the Hellmouth was going to be all sunshine and stylish garb

  • An overview covering the nature of the Buffyverse, hellmouths, and hell dimensions, including some never before seen samples

  • A similar treatment for demons, with specific on many demonic races
  • Details on non-vamp undead, primals, human villains, and various other critters that populate the Buffyverse
  • Background and specifics on Buffy's major villains, unique demons, hellgoddesses, and real bad nasties, including a revisit of all the seasonal Big Bads
  • Rules, guidelines, and ideas for creating monsters true to the spirit of the Buffyverse, including a list of mix-and-match monster powers
  • A complete Episode featuring a major turning point in the Djinn Season

This extension of the Buffy RPG is essentially a monster manual, and a really good one at that. It does a nice job explaining the nature of the monsters and how they fit into the Buffyverse. I also like the fact that they included monsters not seen on [...]

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.
