Monsters: Faerun Monsters

Monsters: Faerun Monsters

I've been asked to convert a lot of Forgotten Realm stuff, so expect to see content from the FR books to pop up from time to time here. First, let's convert some monsters. Tressyms are flying, intelligent cats. Rothes are Faerun-specific herd animals used as cattle. Winged vipers and two-headed adders are Faerun-specific snakes.
