Yup. Simple, sweet, and to-the-point! "Dryden: Hero or Horror " is on sale for only a dollar.
And maybe for only one day, may be for a week! It's on sale now, and when it goes back up, it's back up!
Why? Because it's a new year, and the idea of corrupting more gamers with such a product amuses me...![:]](http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/devious.png "Devious :]")
Here's the blurb, and links to reviews:

We were not always the perfect beings you see before you now. Once, long ago, we were just animals. We supposedly lived on a swampy planet of a far away star. We were some kind of mud-dweller that used other species on the planet to reproduce. I had one of my previous mates tell me that you humans had a creature something like our ancestors, some kind of wasp? Anyway, one day our muck-dwelling animal ancestors ran into something that they never had before.
Aliens.
We're pretty sure that at some point, one of the aliens got caught alone. A female, we think, and that she had been implanted and nested away someplace. By the time the aliens realized she wasn't coming back, her newborn daughter was born and growing.
It must have been amazing for her, being the first of a new breed. You see, the seed had reacted to the alien species' regenerative qualities. Normally, our ancestor's seed would have just used a small sampling of its mother's genetics and taken weeks to be born, but this race had a phenomenal healing quality that reacted to the seed in an unforeseen way. The seed took on all of the characteristics of its alien mother. Her looks, her knowledge, even perhaps some of her personality. The growth rate was amazing, really. She was probably an adult within a day.
Well, they found her daughter, mistook her for her mother, and helped her back to their ship. It only took them a few days to figure out that something was wrong, but by then it was already too late. She had opened the ship to let in more of her animalistic Dryden cousins, and then the fun started in earnest.
Funny, isn't it, that a bunch of explorers from another star would land on a planet and help to give birth to a whole new master race? I'm sure they would have been proud to know that their agonized screams trumpeted out the coming of a new age. That their children would spread across the galaxy as its newest rulers.
Actually, they probably never knew what hit them. But hey, it sounds better my way...

What are the Dryden? Nature spirits from the forest primeval? Biological experiment gone horribly wrong? Sadistic invaders from beyond?
You decide!
Containing an all-new racial class that allows easy use as either a PC race or monster template, this book has everything you might ever want to know about the Dryden. From their need of other races to create their hybrid spawn, to the best way to use them in your campaign, this book has it all. It also includes three complete short-stories and backgrounds for the Dryden, including ones for Fantasy, Modern, and Future settings.
Each setting displays the Dryden in a whole new way, showing examples of how they can be used in a horror setting, for PC heroes, or even as a dark invader bent on enslaving the universe for their own sadistic needs.
I pulled out all the stops for this book. In fact, the horror aspects are so disturbing that I have decided to label this book for Mature Audiences Only. This book has no business in the hands of children. Ever. Period.
Heck, it disturbed me to write it. And I knew what I was getting into...
Remember: The rustling under your bed may not just be something settling. It might be your newest, and last, bedtime visitor...
