'CREATURE TYPES'
Creature type comprises groups of races with similar characteristics and
anatomy. For example a magically animated statue of a giant would be
similar to a gnomish fighting machine and not to a giant, as they are both
constructs. The creature type serves to dictate the anatomy of the monster.
A list of creature types with brief description:
