    Creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: Timid scavenger that crawls through the caverns looking for food.

    Hunter's note: Dull and pathetic. Hardly worth killing.

    Vengefly

    Creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: Flying predator that pursues its prey relentlessly.

    Hunter's note: This fierce little hunter will bravely chase down creatures many times its size. Admirable! It is weak though, and I have devoured hundreds of them with little effort or care.

    Vengefly King

    Powerful creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: Patriarch of a vengefly colony. Swoops at intruders and cries out for reinforcements if threatened.

    Hunter's note: A filthy creature that is happy to chew on any old thing it finds discarded on the cavern floor. When it notices a threat it will annoyingly scream and shriek, so kill it swiftly.

    Gruzzer

    Creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: Simple-minded creature that haphazardly buzzes around, bumping into things.

    Hunter's note: They only seem dimly aware of their surroundings, making them easy prey to cut your fangs on. What is it that guides them on their paths? It almost seems like they search for ways to die.

  5. #5Gruz Mother

    Gruz Mother

    Powerful creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: Mature gruzzer that carries its young in its belly. Attacks by hurling its huge body around.

    Hunter's note: Bizarrely, this monster does not lay eggs but instead carries its young inside of its fat stomach. This strange practice seems to exhaust the creature, making it sleepy and vulnerable. Take advantage!

    Tiktik

    Creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: Uses its small, sharp claws to climb along walls and rooves.

    Hunter's note: Spends its time tap-tap-tapping its way through the roads and caverns near the surface of this kingdom. If you're patient, you can wait for it to come to you and pick it off.

    Aspid Hunter

    Creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: Bests its prey by spitting corrosive liquid. Often hunts in packs.

    Hunter's note: Cunning predators that will try to pick you off from a distance. Don't give them any space, just charge in and cut them down! You'll find they're not so cunning once they are dead.

  8. #8Aspid Mother

    Aspid Mother

    Creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: Carries the eggs of its young inside its belly. Can hatch and birth its young as needed to deal with intruders.

    Hunter's note: Shamelessly uses its own young as a weapon against its foes! Appalling, yes, but I do admire its resourcefulness. Good hunters do not always make good parents.

    Aspid Hatchling

    Creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: Recently birthed, these young aspid instinctively swarm around intruders.

    Hunter's note: These hatchlings are born with an instinct to kill! They are still only infants though, and you can crush them between your fangs without thinking. Just don't let them overwhelm you with numbers.

    Goam

    Creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: Thickly armoured, it bursts from the ground to seize prey in its fangs.

    Hunter's note: These brutes seem to be impervious to most damage, so you can sharpen your weapons on their thick hide or just slash away at them for your own amusement. They barely seem to notice.

    Wandering Husk

    Creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: The remains of a bug, animated by a strange force. Wanders the roads where it once lived.

    Hunter's note: These "civilised" bugs of Hallownest were weak in life and now they are equally weak in death. Send them back into the dirt they were born in!

    (The few of them still remaining after the infection are no longer known as husks.)

    Husk Hornhead

    Creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: The remains of a bug, animated by a strange force. Uses its horn to attack any uninfected creature it finds.

    Hunter's note: These bugs have an arrogant air about them, even after dying. Overly proud of their long horns! I enjoy snapping them off.

    (The few of them still remaining after the infection are no longer known as husks.)

    Leaping Husk

    Creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: The remains of a bug, animated by a strange force. It will instinctively leap at uninfected creatures to attack them.

    Hunter's note: The bugs of old Hallownest did not hunt their own food, they had it brought to them. That's why they were so weak. That's why their kingdom crumbled into dust and faded away!

    (The few of them still remaining after the infection are no longer known as husks.)

    Husk Bully

    Creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: The remains of a bug, animated by a strange force. It aggressively attacks any uninfected creature it finds.

    Hunter's note: A thick orange mist fills these walking corpses. It has a sweet, sickly taste to it. I find it foul. After you kill these creatures, I suggest you do not eat them.

    (The few of them still remaining after the infection are no longer known as husks.)

    Husk Warrior

    Creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: The remains of a bug, animated by a strange force. Wields a nail and shell.

    Hunter's note: Softened by generations of luxury, these bugs lack claws or armour or venom. Those who wish to protect themselves are forced to fashion weapons from stone, ore or shell.

    (The few of them still remaining after the infection are no longer known as husks.)

    Husk Guard

    Creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: The remains of a great Hallownest Crossguard, animated by a strange force. Instinct still drives it to guard its post against intruders.

    Hunter's note: Larger and stronger than their brothers, these bugs are still forced to steal their weapons from the remains of other creatures. They do not roam or hunt, forever standing guard and lashing out at anything that wanders near.

    (The few of them still remaining after the infection are no longer known as husks.)

    Entombed Husk

    Creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: Mummified remains, deformed and enraged by infection.

    Hunter's note: Inside these shambling corpses is a bright light that pierces any darkness. I peered inside that light once and saw... something within it shining back. Something terrible.

    False Knight

    Powerful creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: A maggot driven mad by a strange force. Inhabits a stolen armoured shell.

    Hunter's note: Weak creatures love to steal the strength of others. Their lives are brief and fearful, and they yearn to have the power to dominate those who have dominated them.

    Aluba

    Creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: Passive glider that prefers to dwell near acid waters.

    Armoured Squit

    Creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: Hardened squit, bred for battle in the Colosseum of Fools. Tougher and more aggressive than its wild ancestor.

    Hunter's note: Strong and quick! When they rear back, either move out of the way or prepare to strike back!

    Baldur

    Creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: Rolls into a ball and propels itself at intruders who wander into its territory. Aggressive even when newly born.

    Hunter's note: Younger hunters delight in catching these creatures and rolling them around for sport. I encourage you to indulge yourself if the fancy strikes you.

  23. #23Battle Obble

    Battle Obble

    Creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: Raised in the Colosseum. Although trained for combat, its movements and attacks are still haphazard.

    Hunter's note: They have crafted a tiny mask for it! Is such an extravagance practical I wonder?

    Belfly

    Creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: Thin wings hide a highly volatile belly. Will give its own life to protect its territory.

    Hunter's note: An angry creature with no regard for its own life. A creature without fear... can it truly be called "prey"?

    Bluggsac

    Entry settings

    Boofly

    Creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: Large, docile creature that peacefully buzzes around in the caverns of Kingdom's Edge.

    Hunter's note: Too slow to escape you and too large to hide from you. This prey will not challenge you, but sometimes it is good to take things easy.

  27. #27Broken Vessel

    Broken Vessel

    Powerful creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: Shattered corpse, reanimated by infected parasites.

    Hunter's note: The shape of this creature... I have seen something like it before. More than once, perhaps. It looks a little like the bugs of Hallownest, but not quite the same. Where did these empty little wanderers come from?

    Brooding Mawlek

    Powerful creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: Ferocious but extremely social creature. Becomes aggressive if not able to mingle with its own kind.

    Hunter's note: I hear this beast crying out sometimes as I prowl the caverns, although I've never actually laid eyes on it. Who or what is it calling for? As far as I can tell, its voice is never answered.

    Charged Lumafly

    Creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: When threatened they cluster together, generating electricity.

    Hunter's note: They usually drift about peacefully, but sometimes they cluster together and spit out a sharp, crackling flash that will stun and burn even large beasts like myself. Watch closely for an opening and move past them quickly.

    Corpse Creeper

    Creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: Parasitic beast that controls the body of its host after the host's death.

    Hunter's note: The beasts of this land have found plenty of ingenious hiding places, but none so clever as the body of another creature! If you happen on such a beast, rejoice! You've hunted two creatures at once!

    Cowardly Husk

    Creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: Former member of Hallownest's high society. Although made aggressive by the force inside, old instincts still occasionally compel it to run from danger.

    Hunter's note: The fearful, cowardly nature of these Hallownest bugs persists even after death! It almost feels shameful to chase and cut them down.

    (The few of them still remaining after the infection are no longer known as husks.)

    Crystal Guardian

    Powerful creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: Heavyset miner of the Crystal Peak overcome by crystal growth. Can discharge blazing beams of light from its crystalllised limbs.

    Hunter's note: How does the world look to this creature, gazing out from within its crystal prison? Does it see only light? Is that what drives it into a frenzy?

  34. #34Crystal Hunter

    Crystal Hunter

    Creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: Fires shards of fast-growing crystal at intruders.

    Hunter's note: Make their homes all the way up at the top of the world. Do they use the crystals willingly as weapons or are they merely hosts and the crystals parasites?

    Crystallised Husk

    Creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: Remains of a bug who died amongst the crystals. Animated by a strange force, it attacks by firing beams of light from its crystallised arms.

    Hunter's note: There is some strange power hidden in the crystals that grow up there in the peaks. They gleam and glow in the darkness, a bright point of searing heat in each one. They sing too, if you listen. Very softly...

    (All crystalized husks have perished after the infection.)

    Creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: Infant of the Deepnest. Scuttles about in the darkness, learning the layout of its home.

    Creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: Swarming predator of the Deepnest. Burrows through the ground and bursts out to surprise prey.

    Hunter's note: Springy and vicious, these hunters will try to overwhelm you with numbers in the dark, tight, twisting caverns they carve through the ground. Always be on your guard!

    Dung Defender

    Powerful creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: Skilled combatant living at the heart of the Waterways. Assails intruders with balls of compacted dung.

    Hunter's note: Fighting for 'honour', or for 'loyalty'... you may as well be fighting for dust. If you want to kill, do it for your own sake. That is the nature of a true Hunter.

    Duranda

    Durandoo

    Creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: Simple walking creature encased in a hard shell. Often found wading in shallow pools of acidic water.

    Hunter's note: One of the few creatures that can survive in the rivers of harsh acidic water that flow around us. Where does this water come from? It bubbles and spits with a seething hatred of the living...

    Elder Baldur

    Creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: Bulky and covered in thick plating. Retracts into itself when attacked.

    Hunter's note: As they age, these creatures become too heavy and lumpy to roll around freely. Instead, they curl up and hide from the world. What do they think of in there, wrapped up inside of themselves? More carefree times perhaps.

    Flukefey

    Creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: Youngest of its species. Its body is composed of teeth, wings and stomach.

    Hunter's note: Seems to want to latch onto any living thing that comes by with its sharp little teeth. It will leave its cousins alone though, so it isn't completely mindless.

    Flukemarm

    Powerful creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: An insatiable breeder. Has populated the Waterways with its kind. Its insides double as a nest for young Flukefeys.

    Hunter's note: The desire to breed, to leave behind a memory of ourselves in the shape of a child... it seems to be etched deep into the heart of every living creature. I too have felt the pull of that base instinct.

    Flukemunga

    Creature

    Hunter's Journal entry: Aged fluke, grown fat on the rich refuse found in the pipes below the capital.

    Hunter's note: When predators are too successful the surplus food they eat becomes soft bulk wrapped around their bodies. Still, these creatures at least seem to make good use of their additional weight.
