Massive in more ways than one
The Creature Catalogue trembles at the approach of these mighty monstrosities!
This batch begins with Mullonga, the aboriginal witch of the Nightmare Lands, and her undead servants, the Arcane Heads. From the Abyss gallops forth Hacamuli, a powerful unique demon and one of the favored messengers of Orcus. From the Peaceable Kingdoms of Arcadia come the mighty Generals of the Animal Kings: stealthy General Monkey, earth-shaking General Ox, and puissant General Tiger.
Rounding out the batch are some of the largest creatures in D&D's history: the Gargantua. The Humanoid Gargantua is an 80-foot-tall giant. The Insectoid Gargantua is a massive moth, capable of creating powerful windstorms with its wings, while its larva is a massive worm that fires strands of entangling silk. The Reptilian Gargantua resembles the legendary kaiju Godzilla.
Finally, the Mystaran Gargantua mega-template is a batch all its own, with 10 sample creatures.
Also, I fixed the Yakshini.

...and we're back
After two months without an update (sorry, real world got busy), 10 more animals join the Creature Catalogue Zoo.
This batch includes two real-world animals, the muskrat and porupine, and a number of dire and giant animals. The latter includes the Giant Carp and Giant Mouse, while the former includes the Dire Penguin, Dire Porcupine, Dire Skunk, and Dire Stag. The Eucladoceros, or or "bush-antlered deer", is a prehistoric relative of the stag. Rounding out the batch is the Gigantic Rat, a massive relative of the Dire Rat.

Something's fishy
School's in session! Ten fish and fishy critters have been added to the CC:
The Black Burner, Bloatfish, Gray Flatfish, Spiny Sleeper, and Icetail (and its swarm) are all native to the Great Glacier in the Forgotten Realms. Another FR resident, the venomous Cobra Trout, is found in more temperate regions.
The similarly named Fish-Scorpion and Scorpion Fish are two very different creatures, with the former being a magical blending of its two namesake creatures, and the latter a real-world spiny fish.
Rounding out the batch are the Giant Carp and the morkoth-following Tunnel Fish.

Goodie!
Incidentally, I've being going through the conversions and a couple of seem seem to have their names mispelled.
For example, the Icthyodrake should be Ichthyodrake (if you check Dragon #134 you'll see its name is mispelled in its headline, the body text consistently spells it Ichthyo-).
Similarly, the Baluchiterium should be Baluchitherium.

Done - Djinn and Dragons
This batch includes the last few unconverted dragons and genies.
The Hawkdragon and Minidragon both represent the smaller end of dragonkind, while the Air Dragon template allows great wyrms to live on long after their bodies fail.
The tasked genies include the Deceiver, Oathbinder, Harim Servant, Messenger, Miner, and our own creation, the Hunter.
Rounding out the batch are the Saraph, good-aligned relatives of the Sollux, enganged in endless war against the efreet.

Good! So are we caught up now?

Yep. That was actually an all-new batch. We've still got plenty awaiting their CC debuts, but everything pre-crash is back up there.

Congratulations!
Where you going to change the spelling of the Ic(h)thyodrake, or leave it like that? If it's a "Fish Dragon" it should really have two H-s in the name.

Sorry, forgot about that. I'll make a note to fix it when I'm doing another round of updates.
