Creature Creation
With Mr Evans
What makes a good monster?
● Think about their appearance? Horns, wings, big teeth, scales. How could
you describe these? E.g “My monster has curly, yellow horns.”
● What is their personality like? Are they friendly? Lonesome? Fearless?
Annoying? Try and think of one good trait, and one bad trait.
● They don’t have to be evil or good. It’s up to you!

Explorer's Notes: I woke up one
day to find a large number of
my shoes missing. Sometimes
the left, sometimes the right and
one pair completely gone!
The innkeeper referred to the
miscreants as "those folk" with
a grimace. I found one
cowering in a cupboard with my
boot on his head. Non
threatening but very annoying.
