Woodland Creatures
Introduction
Te Horrors, on the other hand, are explicitly fantastic
and quite monstrous. Many of these things have the faint-
est touch of magic to them, or are otherwise far more intel-
ligent that one might expect such creatures to be. Horrors
are usually quite rare in low-magic, gritty fantasy settings,
but more common in high-magic tales.
Finally, the Legends. Tese creatures are overtly magi-
cal or otherwise fantastic. In low-magic, gritty fantasy set-
tings, they are the subjects of legends and stories, often
fearful ones. Whole bodies of superstition and myth may
crop up around them, and they may have been more com-
mon at some point in the past.
Beast-Haunted
Domains
Because of the scale the Chronicle System operates on,
the terrors in this book might not just threaten individual
characters that encounter them, but also entire domains
unfortunate enough to be near or even within the wood-
lands that the creatures call home.
With the Narrators permission, players may purchase
the following Domain Drawbacks.
Woodland Domain
Drawbacks
Purchasing a Domain Drawback grants a small pool of
points that may be directly added as bonus points to other
Resources at domain generation. Tese points may not be
added to any Resources that are penalized by the Draw-
backs, however.
Beast-Infested 2 points
Te woodland domain of choice is infested with a beast
of some kind, chosen from the Beasts chapter of this or
other Chronicle System Bestiary works. Attacks against
individuals traveling through the forest are common, and
even travel in groups is no guarantee of safety.
Gain a -1 to House Fortune rolls. Population Resource
decreases due to a House Fortunes roll are increased by 1.
Horror-Prowled 4 points
Something unwholesome and hungry haunts your woods,
chosen from the Horrors chapter of this or other Chron-
icle System Bestiary works. You lose smallfolk to it all the
time, and occasionally patrolling soldiers run afoul of the
horror as well.
Gain a -1 to House Fortune rolls. Population and Power
Resource decreases due to a House Fortunes roll are in-
creased by 1.
Legend-Haunted 6 points
Tales are told of your woodlands, and the mystical, ac-
cursed thing therein, chosen from the Legends chapter
of this or other Chronicle System Bestiary works. Your
smallfolk have generations of tales about it, and probably
a handful of superstitious protections supposed to protect
against it. So fearful are those tales, and widely spoken of,
that many merchants refuse to enter your domain.
Gain a -2 to House Fortunes rolls. Population, Power
and Wealth Resources decreases due to a House Fortunes
roll are increased by 1.
Attacking Small Targets
As a reminder, any target in combat that is signicantly smaller than its attacker gains a +2 to Combat Defense
due to the discrepancy in size. A solid majority of the creatures in the Animals section qualify for this bonus if they
are attacked by an opponent of adult human size.
Likewise, any target that is signicantly greater in size than its attacker receives a -2 penalty to Combat Defense
due to its great size. Tis generally includes creatures of horse-size or larger against an opponent of adult human
size.
Troughout this work, we have included the modied Combat Defense for creatures ghting adult human-
sized opponents in parentheses. Tus, an eagle has a Combat Defense of 10 (12), reecting the +2 Combat De-
fense bonus it gains against larger opponents.

vcn in a sctting that might bc callcd high magic, thc
woodlands arc usually populatcd mostly by normal ani
mals. Tough thcy arc usually quitc shy ol thc pcoplc who
tromp through thcir lorcst homc, it is not uncommon to
cncountcr thcsc crcaturcs, whcthcr as chancc cncountcrs,
as thc prcy ol a noblcs (or poachcrs) hunt, or cvcn scrving
at thc sidc ol thosc with thc skill to train thcm.
Tis chaptcr prcscnts a sct ol cxpandcd training rulcs lor
domcsticating and tcaching animals ol a varicty ol tricks
and rolcs, including a sct ol 8cncts lor thosc charactcrs
who spccializc in that task. !t also includcs a sct ol stats lor
normal animals that might bc lound in a woodland sctting,
adding to thc animals lound in CHAPTER 11 ol thc A Song

Rock Giant
Crcaturcs ol a timc bclorc man walkcd thc carth, rock gi

thcy lound a suitablc placc and laid down thcir hugc bod

and somc wcrc cvcn mincd lor thcir high quality stonc,
slowly killing thc rock giant without mcn cvcr know

noncthclcss, nothing ablc to stir thcm lrom thc dccpcst ol

ccasionally somc unusual magical cvcnt, such as a sol
sticc, planctary alignmcnt, or a lcy linc convcrgcncc will

bcings around thcir lcct who cannot spcak intclligibly , rc

Rock giants tcnd to rcact violcntly to this, striking
out at anything bclow thcir lcct or in thcir path. uc to
thcir strcngth and sizc, thcy arc capablc ol lcvcling cn
tirc villagcs. !t oltcn takcs sicgc cngincs or a small army

at thc trcc whcrc its lormcr human scll was was hung, as long as
any ol thosc guilty still livc. Tc only ways to pcrmancntly dcstroy
thc Tall Man arc to punish all thc guilty partics, or to dcstroy thc
trcc that spawns thc tall man. Attcmpts to dcstroy thc trcc will
causc it to immcdiatcly spawn a Tall Man to dclcnd itscll, il thc
attcmpt is madc at night. cstroying thc trcc will not dcstroy any
Tall Man alrcady spawncd, but punishing all thc guilty partics will

only surc way to nd it is to look lor thc noosc that rcmains
