[center][b][size=5][color=#731d08]Welcome to Newt's Bestiary![/color][/size][/b][/center]
Many creatures have been known to live in the world of Sornieth alongside us dragons. Some are docile, and make great companions and allies. Others are aggressive, and would fight to the death before coming anywhere near a dragon peacefully. But what do we really know about these beasts that live among us?
I, Newt, am here to answer that question. Like most Pearlcatchers, I have imbued my pearl with my memories, most of which involve the beasts of Sornieth. And so I have decided to transcribe the contents of my pearl on this parchment. This knowledge must be shared, and I can think of no better thing to share it with than this draconic world we all love.
