| The Dead of Spring |
| Why wait until Halloween to bring out the undead? This batch includes the zombielike Children of Maalpherus, the time-trapped Cryptknight, the mummylike Ka, the scourge-wielding Keres, the vengeful revenant-magna, the serpentine scryxull, and the king of the zombies, Le Grand Zombi. Three templates round out the batch, the Headless Horseman, Skelter, and Zombire. |

| Mayday, May Day, mayday! |
Nine flying (or pouncing) terrors swoop down on the Creature Catalogue, accompanied by an invader from the Red Planet. This batch includes the alien High Martian, the crazy Jaleeda Bird, the living gateways known as MagiStars, the foul Manni, the bloodsucking Mansalauan, the comical yet deadly Pigeontoad, the terrifying Spirit Leopard, and bizarre Wirchler. Rounding out the batch are the living embodiments of pluma magic, the lesser and greater Plumazotl.

| Gargoyles, mutants, and other oddities |
| Five variant gargoyles have invaded the Creature Catalogue, including the archer, spouter, stone lion, gargoyle of the Tors, and the so-called "true gargoyle", the grist. This batch also includes three entities associated with the Far Realm, the maddening brood gibberlings and the troll mutates and their dreaded matriarch. Finally, the Maztican ahuizotl and the extraplanar ethyk round out this bunch. |

| Fools Rush In |
It's April 1st, so time to welcome a few more oddballs to the Creature Catalogue.
First, we've got the ravenous death sheep. Joining them are the pigalopes, odd pig/kangaroo hybrids from a spelljamming asteroid. Continuing the crazed hybrid theme so common to mad wizards, we have the turtledoves, flying terrapins with a serenity-inducing bite.

| Horse-men and horrors of the forest |
| This batch includes two variant centaurs (nomadic and sea), four centaurkin (dorvesh, gnoat, ha'pony, and zebranaur), and four terrors from Filipino mythology (the blood-draining aswang, the mighty tikbalang, the shadow-biting segben, and the alacritous mantabungal). |

| One of a kind |
| The monsters in this batch are all unique beings. This includes the djinn Aeraldoth (vizier to Caliph of the Djinn), the demon prince-in-training Siragle, and the six ghazneths (Boldovar the Mad, Luthax the Fiery, Merendil the Bloody, Melineth the Grasping, Suzara the Scold, and Xanthon the Baneful). Finally, the Creature Catalogue welcomes one of the most famous creatures in the history of D&D: Baba Yaga, and her Dancing Hut. |

| Dragons! |
Jonathan Richards was gracious enough to assist us with updating his greater drakes from Dragon Magazine #260. This includes the Arsalon (Hive Drake), Fumarandi (Smoke Drake), Kavainus (Ghost Drake), Retchenbeast (Muck Drake), Silislithis (Sea Drake) and Vandalraug (Battle Drake).
To round out the batch, we've added four true dragons: the electrum, obsidian, jade, and stone dragons.

| Lizards, man! |
| A clutch of lizardfolk have invaded the Creature Catalogue, and they've brought along a couple other reptilian nasties. These include the warlike varanids, the easygoing iguanids, the wallcrawling geckonids, the oversized agrutha, the water-breathing Malpheggi, the big brute crocodilians and their scheming masters, and the out-of-this-world Venusian lizardfolk. Along for the ride are the mutated medusa thousandtooth and the relatively harmless anchisaurus. |
