This is outstanding! The ogre, owl bear, and kobold illustrations are immediate all time favourites for me. And the invisible stalker is masterfully executed. 

I have one suggestion for the next iteration: re-order a few of the monsters that are burdened with leading adjectives so they are grouped together rather than scattered throughout the collection. ie "dragon, black", immediately followed by "dragon, blue", "dragon, green", "dragon, red", and "dragon, white", all under "D" rather than having "black dragon" on pg. 12 and then "white dragon" on pg. 142.  The references should be under "dragon" rather than under each colour. (Same goes for the various bears, giants, etc etc).

Thank you! I like to learn which monsters people like, it’s always kind of surprising, and nice of course.

Your suggestion makes sense. This is actually the way monsters used to be sorted out in the Cairn bestiary prior to the changes made by Yochai for the 2nd edition. I followed Yochai’s logic to keep things consistent between both the “official” content and the Illustrated Bestiary.

I would think of your proposed version more as an alternative that an updated version, but I like the idea. I’ll see if I can get my hands on this in the not too far future :)
