Monster races

Monsters are primarily defined by only possessing a single path of leveling: their races. To try and comprehensibly explain what exactly a monster is, however, impossible. Beasts, most Unique Lifeforms, elementals, most undead, plant-like lifeforms, etc., are all monsters.

The creatures defined as monsters will also often be able to change their race far more easily. They show a tendency to remain within the same general species but can experience significant changes. While the enlightened races rarely change much physically through evolutions, monsters can undergo substantial metamorphosis.

There is no way to tell them apart by appearance either. A humanoid figure can easily be a monster such as a doppelganger, mimic, or shifter. If they are of a high grade, it could be any type of monster in existence that has simply taken human form.

• Beasts
