Book excerpt: Tales of dripping fangs and ripping claws echo out from around flickering campfires, drawing travellers close together to avoid the beasts that wait just beyond the dim light. Alleyways hide assassins that want more than coin from their victims, and sometimes the movement in the shadows are the shadows themselves. Hyboria is a dangerous place filled with deadly beasts and hungering predators - any of which could spell the epilogue in an adventurer's epic tale at any time. For the first time in the history of the Conan Roleplaying Game all of the creatures, animals, demons and beasts of Hyboria are gathered between two covers. Some will look very familiar, like the Ape Men or the Zombie, but new creatures like the Dark Spawn and the Pictish Hound will give Games Masters a whole new arsenal as well. Compiled together for Games Masters everywhere to unleash upon their players, the Hyborian Bestiary gives over a hundred statistic profiles and plot hooks for the denizens of Conan's world.
