Beasts of Legend: Construct Codex (5e)
The Creepiest Creatures Ever Created
Constructs at first seem like such simple creatures¸ mindless automatons brought to a semblance of life by the power of magic. Yet consider them again¸ in light of a horror-themed campaign. These are not creatures but things¸ soulless¸ pitiless¸ without fear¸ judgment¸ or mercy¸ brought to a horrifying mockery of life by forces beyond comprehension. Their animus bound unwilling by the eldritch experimentation of madmen¸ the accursed invocations of apostate heretics¸ or risen into being by the tormented hauntings of spirits unable to rest and unwilling to forget or forgive the miseries they suffered or perpetrated in life. And what of those constructs that are not mindless at all but possessed of a malign and calculating intellect that makes them all the more hateful of those that live. These are what constructs can bring in a horror-themed adventure or campaign¸ and the Construct Codex brings you 11 brand-new creepy creations ranging from Challenge 1 to 17 to menace and maul your heroes¸ each one lavishly illustrated¸ along with optional rules using these fearsome creations as instruments of terror in your game.
The Beasts of Legend series from Legendary Games are not your usual bare-bones bestiaries¸ but bring you richly detailed and evocatively described monsters drawing upon the myths and legends of the real world with a double dose of fantastic flair. You can check out the first Beasts of Legend book¸ the 5-star rated Coldwood Codex ¸ and keep your eye out for future installments of the Beasts of Legend series that continue introducing marvelous monsters tailored to specific campaign themes¸ like the wintry menaces in the Boreal Bestiary and the wide-ranging Asian adversaries in Beasts of the East! These are terrific additions to our existing 5th Edition product line ¸ including horror adventures like The Fiddler's Lament and The Murmuring Fountain ¸ the overland expedition Road to Destiny ¸ the witch-haunted The Baleful Coven ¸ and upcoming adventures like the desolate fey wilderness of Cold Mountain¸ and the pirate shenanigans of Spices and Flesh!
We hope you enjoy using it as much as we enjoyed making it¸ and that you'll keep coming back again and again to Make Your Game Legendary!
