A mummy as depited by Call of Cthulu 6th edition. It looks like ots gruesomly hairy but also that its smilimg witha large doofy grin with the crazy eyes. It doesnt look super scarey as it looks very cartoon like and is not as gruesome so of their other artwork.
Using outside knowledge to solve problems. Ex. knowing a monster armor class or weakness from reading the book on your own time. Essentially knowing something or using knowledge your character wouldn’t know.

AD&D 2e
MM3 3.5
Miniature Handbook 3.5
Complete Arcane 3.5
The warmage appears in 2 books. Each has the same content word for word. I believe this is the only class that appears twice word for word in 2 different books! The only thing different is the image as seen above. The warmage is an armoured mage meaning they take less of a arcane spell chance penalty from wearing armour. This means they can be more combative and not just focused on spells. A lot of classes appear multiple time but usually theu contain more rules, magic or some other alterations to the class, expanding it. Thats what makes this 3.5 class so interesting and unique.
This is an awesome book. It is both an collection of monsters and new player races. It also goes into deep fetail baout how to roleplay and uses some monster races both for DMs and Players.
They go into deep detail about playing and using Beholders and Mindflayers which are both classics in D&D so its an excellent addition.
This book also is a bit gorey which I love and i found it refreshing that it wasnt just playing to children. A lot of D&D players are adults or older teens and students.
I love the list of cool races they added. I would love to play the raven character seen above ad well as any other other cool addtions.
And then after the indepth look at some monsters and character races it goes into a more traditional bestiary which is fantastic.
I like this book alot. I think its great its not just a bestiary or just a race list. Its more diverse but iI didnt know exactly what would be in it just by looking at it. I was pleastly surpirsed!
Makes me laugh…

What did an Adventure Modual Consist of?
This is the first advnture modual supplement I have ever looked at for ad&d. I had seen photos online and assumed it was a book like the 3.0 moduals, however its not its all loose but extremely cool.
It comes with the book which is a black and white collection of paper thats just stapled together. Anothr book with character information and a hard map that doubles as the cover and could be used as a dm screen.
No only does the map vontain a map it has a very useful table of all the stats you need to reference to run the adventure. This in my mind makes it absolutely perfect as a dm screen.
There is a lot of beautiful detail i nthe large coloured map which is the only aspect of this modual that is in colour.
Above is an example of the prerolled ready to play character ready made to play in this modual with all there stats present as well as an illustration.
Very cool and truley a ready to play advenyure right down to all the maps and premade characrers.
This modual was very cool to see in person and was grateful for the Toronto Public Library’s awesomr archive!
