WHITE DWARF Magazine monster index

[Zebek]

MonsterMash and/or Garnfellow,

I am looking for a reprint of two articles that were published in issues #16 (pages 8-10) and #21 (pages 8-9). Both articles were AD&D conversions of monsters and classes found in The Thomas Covenant Chronicles. Can either of you help?

Thanks!

If you're still looking, I'll brave my attic and dig them out for you.

WD 30 (April/May 1982), "Fiend Factory: In Good (?) Company": Stirge Demon (Ivo Smith), Weresnake (Cas Liber), Muryan (Roger Moore), Sprite Knight (Phil Masters), Vampire Wolf (Coacula) (Trevor M. French), Minidrad (D. Parrington).

I think that last one should be "Minidrag".

WD 53 (May 1984), "Fiend Factory: Slave Hunt - Low Level Mini-Adventure": Wood Skeleton (Wayne Burchell), Plentyn Nos (Anonymous), Zwergind (F. J. Dolan), Gremkin, Black (Trevor M. French), Gremkin, Red (Trevor M. French), Gremkin, Green (Trevor M. French).

Also in "The Naked Orc: A Study of Orcish Society" by Rufus Wedderburn in issue #53, there are stats for three variations of orcs: Soldier Orc, Snaga and Uruks (stats for 'Male', 'Female' and 'Young' are given for each type). These orc types seem to be loosely based on Tolkien's orcs.

Also the Woods Vampire from "Beyond the Shadow of a Dream" by Ian Marsh.

Echohawk,

Nice catches all. I lost many edits to this list during the Great EnWorld Server Crash, so it's great to have another set of eyes on this.

I know it's a real nit-pick but that should be "Diabolo" .

The drainwing (a large butterfly that feeds off magical energies) also appears in this Fiend Factory column. Issue #49 also contains wood-demons (huge, shaggy beasts that aren't actually demons) and the anak (a race of short, hairy, muscular humanoids), in the article "The Key of Tirandor, Part One: The Search for the City" by Mike Polling.

Issue #39 has a stat block for Gremlins on page 27, in the article "The Daughter of Danu" by Alan E and Charles M Paull. These gremlins are said to be cousins of the leprechauns.
