The Thousand Sanctioned Beasts 2: Elementals (2019)

From publisher blurb:

Creation is filled with more strange creatures than any man could ever hope to catalogue in a single lifetime. For better or for worse, the author of The Thousand Sanctioned Beasts may not die until he has catalogued them all.

We return with the second installment in our series of bestiaries for Exalted Third Edition. The Thousand Sanctioned Beasts is a game-focused guide to creatures, with the primary aim of making it easy for Storytellers to construct encounters (or for players to summon). Remember how we used to have the Monster Manual? Yeah! Like that!

In this book, we present thirteen new elementals, each of them designed to be used by players who long to increase their roster of summoned spirits. Do you need a bodyguard who can move a mountain, but can't reliably carry a bundle of firewood across the yard? Are you prepared to put your well-being in the hands of a man with apples growing in his hair? Do you want to enter into a business arrangement with a giant shark? If so, you're in the right place. This book contains bodyguards, muscle, spies, herbalists, poisoners, majordomos, and a dinosaur.

But wait! Was that somehow not enough? Because I also threw in some new shaping rituals and plenty of reskins! You don't like my handsome balloon-man? It requires only a few tweaks to turn him into a deadly dragon-mantis! (Balloon men and mantises share 99% of their DNA.)

The Thousand Sanctioned Beasts: aiming to present you with all the NPC stats you need to enjoy Exalted without having to break any pencils or weep because your players destroyed all opposition in one turn again, since 2018.
