Play it at the LairGobgob's games are well loved, so some might be missing a piece or two. Spot something missing? Tell us straight away at the counter or by message, so we can try to replace it.
Gobgob counted over 200 creatures in here. Gobgob did not count themself.
Basic Roleplaying: Creatures is a bestiary of more than 200 creatures for Chaosium's Basic Roleplaying (BRP) system (2025), from real animals, dinosaurs and megafauna to fantasy beasts, aliens, robots and nonplayer characters. A Gamemaster toolkit covers customising creatures and NPCs, and dragon, elf and giant heritages and dwarf tribes get full entries so players can be one. It's built for Basic Roleplaying: Universal Game Engine, with guidelines for using the creatures in RuneQuest, Call of Cthulhu, Rivers of London and Pendragon.
Gobgob's favourite bit: There are rules for building your own kaiju. Gobgob has named theirs Biscuit.

Borrowing by post
Members anywhere in New Zealand can borrow by post. Postal swaps go out every Thursday. The cutoff is Wednesday 10pm for Thursday delivery.
Postage out is charged at our normal website shipping rates, and you pay to post games back to us.
Missing pieces and damage
Check the box when you borrow it. If a piece is missing, tell us at the counter so it isn't charged to you.
Pieces that go missing or get damaged while a game is with you can be charged up to the game's RRP, unless our staff waive it. Normal wear and tear is fine. The full details are in the library terms.
