'1' above is used to denote where a number should be entered.

some fluff and puff on what the monster is and why you made it.

Combat

a toughie - what it does it you hit it or it feels like hitting you...

Habitat / Society

putting the beastie into context within its own society - one for the simulationists, munchkins can simplify this one to 'mooks / big boss'.

Ecology

putting the beastie into context within the ecosystem - one for the simulationists, munchkins can simplify this one to 'best rare / charbroiled, feathers worth x in a reasonable city, etc'

ecology is also a good place for geography - note some places in Cerilia (or outside) where your beastie can be found, or is rumored to exist.

Variant X

All good beasties have various divergent versions, sometimes bigger, sometimes smaller, sometimes with a botanically fascinating ability to spit lethal poison. Whatever floats your boat.
