*Taken from the Hunters Guild Bestiary Records.
The Hunter Guild is a neutral faction that was created solely for monster subjugation and had multiple branch all across the known continent.
In the span of thousand years in the known world, there were findings that had been recorded in the Bestiary Records of beasts and monsters encounter. This book was purposely for the sole use of the Hunters that registered with the Guild. Though many records were lost in because of the purge war, only several of them had survived at the creation of this great Kingdom.

[rank 1 beasts and monsters]
Undead;
Zombie and skeletal monster types. Can be easily slay by bashing or separate their head from its body. Slow in movement but sometimes carries worn weapons. Can be found in areas where dead bodies were left without proper burial. But be careful of their mouth, it could leave a strong curses if one were to be bitten by them.
Gobblers;
humanoid species type monsters that had a bluish colored skin and about a size of a small child, not taller than that of a dwarfien. The weakest humanoid monsters and easy to be killed even the most unexperienced hunter if its alone. Quite cunning and always works in groups with rugged weapons and rocks. Usually found in forest and swamps area. As for their name sake, the gobblers will eat anything that they can put in their mouth, without consent. Also known that its male lusted for the races female and had in some cases, where they were known to abduct villagers and traveler females for breeding purpose.
Rabr wolf;
Beast type monster that usually worked in packs. Its sized about a normal wolf, but had the characteristic of a rabid animal with their foamed mouth and stink odor. These wolf were tainted by the miasma, making them become hostile towards other lifeforms. Had a thick fur that can be use as materials for armors. Can be found lingering around tainted lands. Should be dealt in a party rather than individual.
Rathas;
A gerbil like animal beast monster's type but had half the size of the Rabr wolf. Quite easy but irritate to deal with thanks to its ability to burrow itself In the ground and pounced on its target while they were unprepared. Professional escaper and will not attacked things thats poses a threat to itself. This overgrown gerbil was a nightmare for farmers because they usually make a mess on their fields. From my point of view, this little bastards is irritate to handle. Let the newbies handle this sort of stuff in the future!
Arga;
an insect monsters type. Its shaped like an overgrown grasshopper and usually had the sized about 500 cm long. This irritating bastards likes to work in swarms, making them quite hard for melee type Hunter. Though it could be dealt with easily by magician that can use wide area spell to annihilate these pesky problem maker. Like the Rathas, these monsters pose more of a threat for farmers field than peoples livelihood.
[rank 2-3 beasts and monsters]
Gobblers variant;
Had the height about an adolescence person but still had the characteristic of a gobbler. This variant types were rarely seen and only can be found in their lair, acting like officers to the lower ranking gobblers thanks to their agile and cunning. Can craft its own weapons and poses more danger for female hunters. Though if encountered, Kill them without mercy.
Ork;
Humanoid monster that had yellowish purple skin with a face of an Orotg. These types of monsters were usually works in groups of ten. The group also will be led by the strongest one that was called the head, acting as the leader. Armed themselves with hand made weapons or those that they got from killing their prey. They were also known to be more lustful than the Gobblers Variant and will attacked females on sight. Though in rare cases, they will also attacked males. Truly a disgusting monster that should be killed on sight.
Orotg;
A beast type monster. This was wild forest boar was contaminated with the miasma and evolved into a monster, twice the height of a grown adult with the length of 5-6 meters and about 7 meters in height. Usually lingers around the forest and will attacked on sight. Unintelligent monster but had thick hides that blocks dull weapons attack. Its forehead was the weakest part of this massive beast but needed a little bit of punch to deal with the killing blow. Its hides and tusks can be used for gear equipments and its meat was one of the luxurious meat there is in the market after processed.
Lotrad;
A centipede monster type. About a sized of a grown adult with multiple sharp legs with razor teeth. Its hard brown shell could block a heavy blows but on its greatest weakness was its underbelly and its eyes. Although its seems like an insect monster, its meat was closed to that of a crustaceans creatures. Its shell can be use as protective gear while its razor teeth can be use as hidden weapons. Its meat were also in high demand in the market just like the Orotg. But because it never leave its nests, there weren't many encounter with these monsters.
[rank 3-5 beasts and monsters]
Titled monster;
Titled monsters were monsters that evolved unnaturally thanks to the corruptions of miasma. It can comes in variates of beasts and monsters from the lower ranks. These monsters usually had the titles like, Lieutenant, captain, general and lastly, king. Approximately in hundred years, there were significant sightings of the more evolved variant that was ever recorded. Though I had some doubts that those bastards might come in the far future.
Titled monster should be dealt with the cooperation between veteran Hunters and the kingdom's army for its subjugation. These monsters capable to lead their lower ranked fellows in combat and could annihilate a small town if to be left alone.
There was some cases where monsters like;
Wyvern, the lesser dragon offspring, half the size of an adolescence dragon.
Boldar fist, the humongous ape like beast, its heights reaches to most fort walls.
Falcaf, the horned horselike beast with wings, high mobility and only a slight bigger than a normal horse.
These monsters was categorize as medium risk threat level because these types of were capable using advance magic spells. If these types of monsters ever sighted, please report to the nearest local Hunters Guild for an emergency subjugation.
[rank 5 and the unknown]
Rank 5 monsters were consider a high level threat for the nations all around the world. These monsters alone can annihilate thousand of soldiers and can be consider as a calamity bringer. In the span of a thousand years, only four rank five monsters and one unknown were ever recorded since the creation of the Hunters Guild. The past records were lost in the great purge war several millennium ago.
[rank 5 monsters]
The gobblers King and Queen that devastated the small nation in the southeastern parts of the known world that led thousand of gobblers, were subjugated by a group of heroes led by Farga spear-master, whom hailed from the Empire at the year of 3104 of the first Emperor calender.
The Emperor Boldar, in the forest of Slumber. Tall as almost the height of a bastion tower with darker brown furs, was subjugated by the kingdom's most decorated knights in the year 3281. Though, the price for this subjugation was the lives of the bereave warriors that sacrificed themselves to trap the enrage monster. The Kingdom newly created Knights Order were thrown into chaos thanks to this, at that era.
The Twin headed Serpent Queen, near the east coast of the Empire. Its an aquatic monster type and had a rainbow colored scales. Its length was almost 10 km and its mouths could swallow up a house whole. Its razor sharp fangs were coated with deadly poisons that could melt even steel in contact. Though it was subjugated by the combine forces of the strongest warriors and magician at that time that the empire has, the monster already lay wasted three of the Empire's trading ports, and one port city. If the monster were to appeared In the kingdom's at that time, I could only imaging the devastation that it will bring to the nation.
[The unknown]
These types of monsters were those that didn't had any records mentioning of their existence. They were classified as rank 5 and above, and also posed a threat to the world itself. If these types of monsters were ever appeared, humanity must stood together. If not, we were all doomed.
The Sky Conquerer. A magical beast that was wholly created by miasma. This monster almost brought the whole world to the brink of destruction of the ancient civilization, prior the purge war. This threat only ends when several Godly Kin, whom said to be the first humanity, sacrificed their lives in subduing this calamity, bringing the wrath of the Gods from the sky in the form of pillars of light. This large bird like monster had wings that could covered the whole kingdom's in its shadow when it flew in the air. Its remain can be found in the Plains of dread, southeast of the Empire's main capital territory.
The Creator. Nothing was being said about this monster aside that it had something to do with the creation of the dungeon, thus it was called the 'Creator'. Though it was subjugated by the Great Sage Vormorth in the age of magic developments, post purge era. He didn't gave much information regarding this monster and only commented that it had a human like figure. Its strength were unknown, but since it had the capabilities to creates dungeons, its easy to say that this monster was more terrifying than the Sky Conquerer. I pray that this monster was the only one of its kind.
New addition notes from Hunter Mirga (recently added).
New monster type were sighted In the forest of Slumber and in need of attention from the Hunters Guild to investigate this new encounter. The descriptions as follows;
Humanoid fleshy body,
With variants of multiple limbs and monster types,
immune to physical attacks,
Great strength that could break bronze armor with ease,
Had howling ability to disoriented its attackers.
Without the proper tools to investigate this new monster, I could make assumption that it was a zombie like creature with multiple corpses combined to formed one body. Assistance are needed for further investigation.
