GURPS Classic: Creatures of the Night

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Terror In The Darkness

Huge buildings that eavesdrop on unsuspecting guests. Hideous fish whose songs drive villages insane. Obscene voices whispering madness through the Net. Gruesome gardens full of living human organs. Crystalline creatures floating between our atmosphere and the starry depths of outer space. And things that look like vampires - but aren't . . .

This book describes a host of the most macabre, chilling and downright disgusting creatures that ever peered from the shadows or lurked just out of sight - or right in front of you. Some are microscopic, others too large to imagine. All will haunt your dreams.

Each creature includes:

  • Complete information on attributes, size, habitats and alternative names.
  • Descriptions of motivations, feeding habits and social patterns.
  • The creature's origins - and what it takes to get rid of it.
  • Ideas for introducing it into a campaign, and adventure seeds - lots of ideas for storylines.

You'll never feel safe again, anywhere. From the worlds of high fantasy to those of high tech, these creatures will make your skin crawl - literally . . .

The GURPS Basic Set is required to use this book in a GURPS campaign.

(This is a digital reprint of a GURPS Third Edition product.)

How does this differ from the other "GURPS Creatures of the Night" installments (volumes 1-5) available here? http://www.drivethrurpg.com/browse.php?keywords=gurps+creatures+of+the+night

Are they completely disjoint (i.e., worth getting all 6)? Are the multi-volume sets a superset of this "Classic" volume (getting the 5-part series gives you everything in this volume)? Or is this a single-volume version of the multi-volume set?

This product is for GURPS 3rd Ed. The other volumes are for GURPS 4th ed. The books do not overlap creatures.
I'm a huge fan of this book, just fantastic creatures for modern horror campaigns. Many would fit into a futuristic or fantasy without too much trouble.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
