This is a p5: In the paragraph regarding experience points, delete "in holdover from the SRD. parenthesis" from the sentence starting with "The number in parenthesis...." p16: Cloaker – In the Movement rating, delete "average". This is a holdover from the SRD. p6: The experience examples on page 6 are wrong. In the first example, the 5HD creature with 25 hit points would be worth p17: Couatl constriction damage is 2d8. 205XP (base 80XP + 5XP per hit point). In the second example, the 4HD creature with the special ability would be worth 60XP p19 (provisional): Dog (Coyote) – No. Encountered is 4-16. (40XP base + 20XP for special ability) + 4XP per hit point. p19: Doppelganger – Creature type should be “shapechanger”. p6 (clarification): In computing experience points for creatures not in the book, the bonus XP values for Type I, II, and III p20: Under Languages and Magic, add the following sentence abilities stack. For example, the Treant has an XP value of to the end of the paragraph, “If a dragon has spell-like abilities, 585+7. Base XP for a 7HD creature is 180 with Type I, II, and it uses those abilities as if it were a wizard of a level equal to the III bonuses of 90, 135, and 180XP. If only the highest bonus age category (1-12) of the dragon.” were to be used, XP for a Treant would be 360+7XP, leaving 225XP unaccounted for.
