So, because of changing publishers and some of the setbacks with the (still upcoming) Medieval-Authentic Companion book (which will be coming out soon), we'd suspended publishing the RPGPundit Presents (https://www.drivethrurpg.com/browse/pub/451/Spectre-Press) series.
However, now we're back. We probably won't be publishing one each week, but we'll be putting out new ones every couple of weeks, while shifting attention at Spectre Press to develop more compilation volumes (after the first one comes out!).
So, this week, to start us off again, here's RPGpundit Presents #98: Medieval-Authentic Bestiary 2 (https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/297224/RPGPundit-Presents-98-MedievalAuthentic-Bestiary-2)!
(https://www.drivethrurpg.com/images/451/297224.jpg)
Much like in the first Medieval-Authentic Bestiary, here you get a list of 15 different and mostly very weird medieval fantasy creatures, all of which are based on real medieval folklore, legends, and texts!
You get stuff like:
The Urisk: A dangerous fire-breathing fairy creature
The Fae Snail!
The horrific Scytale, a serpent that murders you from the inside without you even realizing it!
The Pwca, a faery shapechanger and trickster
The Onocentaur, half-men, half-donkeys!
The terrible Lindworm, a subspecies of dragon
And many more!
Each entry includes details on the creature's history and origins, where it's typically found, it's habits, behavior and special powers, typical number appearing, and full OSR stats, easily usable in any OSR or D&D-derived game!
So if you're looking for some unusual creatures to add to your campaign that have a long history and a flair of the unusual only medieval minds could conceive of, be sure to pick up the Medieval Authentic Bestiary 2 (https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/297224/RPGPundit-Presents-98-MedievalAuthentic-Bestiary-2) for just $2.99 at DTRPG!
And while you're at it be sure to check out all our previous issues, where you'll find tons of OSR medieval-authentic and Gonzo/Weird-Fantasy goodness!
More monsters is always handy... any idea which medieval-authentic companion compilation this material will feature in please (3?)?

It will, eventually, be in the Old School companion 3, but that is probably at least 2 years off.
