Undead Sourcebook in January 2009

[vagabundo]

It should have been called the necronomicon.

It should have been called the necronomicon.

That certainly would be more consistent. We could end up with:

Draconomicons I & II (at least)
Necronomicon
Demonomicon

What would you call the inevitable book about aberrations? And what about the one on devils, for that matter?

 

[Mustrum_Ridcully]

That certainly would be more consistent.

What would you call the inevitable book about aberrations and the far realm?

Aberrationomicon?

or

Weirdonimicon?

Xenomicon?

Book of Eibon, The Dhol Chants or Pnakotic Manuscripts.

Book of Eibon, The Dhol Chants or Pnakotic Manuscripts.

You're not doing it right! It has to end in "nomicon" to be valid!

How about Eibonomicon? Aberranomicon? Abernomicon?

Xenomicon?

I like this one.


We could have a Feynomicon and a Chaotinomicon too perhaps.



Anyway ... on topic: I wonder if this book will concentrate solely on undead creatures (and stuff to do with them) or whether it will spend some time exploring the Shadowfell as well. I imagine most of the Shadowfell stuff will be in the Manual of the Planes.

Xenomicon?

Me likey.

No, you've got it all wrong, this is Chaos it would have to end in something different for the sake of not being the same. How bout Xhaotic Codex?
The cover could just be a big X but when you look closely it's made up of small print repititions of the title.

Oh yes true. Of course. How about something like Codex Chaotica?

Even if these are only for monsters, at this rate it wouldn't take long before you're plumbing the depths of insanity for future Monster Manuals. "Monster Manual IV: Man-Eating Furniture!" (Oh, wait. Man-eating furniture is probably a supplement.) Why not just save it for the MM2?

You mean the Complete Book of Mimics ??
