This is the Alphabetized Listing for the Creatures submitted thus far. Please continue to add your submissions to the original thread
sbg-sword-forum.forums.net/thread/51573/fantasy-design-competition-discussion-bestiary
and I'll transfer them here. Some will have to be edited to the Format laid out by ramses1079. If the person submitting the creature has any issues with the editing please pm me and I'll try to work with you. These are your submissions not mine and I will try not to loose your focus or thoughts during the editing process.
Please bear with me while I transfer them here:
1)Bugs to work out-metric to US conversion- I'll rectify this by using both US and Metric units
