Its a lot of work putted into the supplement, its sad to see it unfinished and not on the showcase.

Are you volunteering, my good man?

Never done anything like this before, any guidelines that you might give me/us?

There's likely a lot of needed corrections for the Field Guide entries; I or Dimirag can start to comb over it (I'll let him signal which of us goes first).

Dimirag: For starters, there are a lot of specified encounters that need to be detailed. Note that the supplement has "up-level" and "down-level" monsters; when encountering higher-level monsters, you lower the number appearing, while you increase it when encountering lower-level monsters (relative to the dungeon level).

Chi and Dimi: I'll let you guys figure out who goes first. Just keep me updated!

Chii, you are better at finding and editing errors, go ahead and start working with what is already done.

Some initial work done. Also added Field Guide to OGL license as it was missing. This could really use JD's checkbox checking tool.

Awesome Chii.

Solo: What does "supplement" and "special" stands for? Supplement are reserved for monsters from the FG and other supplement? Special are monsters not appearing anywhere or monsters modified to be "unique"?

Solo and Chii: If its OK with you guys I'll post any new adding directly on the topic, so it prevents the file being passed from one member to another or to be hold by one in case he can't log in, it also lets any other forum member to post new additions.

I (and whomever wants it) will use the following format:

Yes, exactly. "Supplement" is basically "Field Guide" now. "Special" refers to modified monsters (i.e. with added spellcasting powers, or bigger or smaller than normal, or perhaps unusual combination groups).

I'm good with it if Chi is.
