Comments: Some of these animals are clearly not common in Blackmoor or anywhere on the map of The North. I certainly don't see many giraffes or rhinos appearing here unless brought through some circus or summoned magically. These animals are mentioned in connection to spells and I assume that the mages who came up with the spells are knowledgeable about creatures from distant lands.

Some others that come to mind:
SuppII
Giant lizard
Giant Rat
Crypt Skeleton (2 HD, page 43)
Giant Snake
Giant Troll (true troll, p44)
Garbage Pits of Despair
Maggot Men
Zombie Maggot Men
Watchwings
Carcus critters
and I think somewhere around here we did a list for the FFC, didn't we?

Great additions! This will be helpful for some of my upcoming projects

I have seen you post that, but search didnt come up with anything. I will try to think of some better key words to search for...

Heh, I thought you were the one who posted it. Maybe what I'm thinking of was only a list of animals?

Hmmm...looks like I posted this one at the OD&D74 forum:
Havard Wrote:Here is a list of monsters that appear in the FFC, but which I havent seen used much (if at all) in other D&D products & additions:[/quote]
Troll, True
My impression is that True Trolls actually resembles what became the D&D standard troll, but that some other lesser Troll existed.
Dragon, Brown (Richard Snider)
Brown Dragons were later added to Classic D&D by Frank Mentzer (Master Rules)
Dragon, Purple
Listed between Red and Green dragons, perhaps as an indication of their power? Purple Dragons live in Jungle and Swamps.
Tarn
Various variants (War, Riding etc) exist.
Balrog
Later appearing as Balor.
Ent
Later appearing as Treants
Orc, Red Eye
Orc, White Hand
Orc, Isengarder
Orc, Mountain
Orc, Mordor
Serpent, Great
Could be useful to go through the FFC in more detail and include human units like Crusaders, Vikings, Heroes, Superheroes etc as well...

Re: Monsters from Published Blackmoor Books - aldarron - 03-29-2020
Yes.
There's a few FFC critters I have statted out in my "Arsonian" monster manual. I might be forgetting one or two:
Giant Vultures
Sea Serpent
10th Abomination (shadow)
Giant Hog
Id monster
Also, I'm vaguely remembering Havard that you wrote up something about the ghost lady of the black tower and the jungle of tangor creature.
