Halloween Golems were created in the frontier times, when the lands of MONSTRU were wild and untamed. They were initially called “Farm Golems” but the name never really stuck and they’ve been known as “Halloween Golems” ever since. The Halloween Golems were created to assist borderland farmers to bring in the first harvests by Halloween. [...]

“At 7 tons and 20 feet tall, these CrowBots are certainly big soldiers. I’m sure glad they’re on our side.” – Reporter Dirk Moon “The new models of CrowBot soldiers were crafted entirely for us to win our war with CREATU. This battle has raged for too long. With these super-soldiers, victory is in our [...]
“ALL ANIMALS ARE EQUAL. BUT SOME ANIMALS ARE MORE EQUAL THAN OTHERS. – George Orwell, Animal Farm Of all of the diverse races and creatures of Monstru, the Furnace Goblins are very close to the bottom of the social strata. They are the accepted “workers” (slaves) of the society, as they are the workhorses who [...]
“I don’t think to much about it, but AutoLife is as natural as anything else. People love to hunt and gather, so it is pretty easy to move from one place to another, looking for work, safety, or love. – Anonymous driver Monstru is horribly overpopulated. It started a few generations ago, and has continued [...]
The Bloodless is a category of folk who are for the most part, undead. At one time they were the people and monsters of MONSTRU, but died for one reason or another. They are so very common in MONSTRU, that they do not cause the regular screaming reaction, that they do on Earth. However, Bloodless [...]
CrowBots? What do CrowBots know? They’re dumb as rocks. Their difference engines are tiny. You want to talk to a real thinker? You need to talk to a Clockwork. Each one of those boys are smarter than the whole CrowBot army. The Clockwork are a Mechan race created to think and recount knowledge. Housed inside [...]
There are a variety of ancient and giant creatures found around Monstru, known as the “Gants.” They are all that is leftover from the Gargants, the titan race that forged and created the world. It is said that the Gants provided the hard labor that drug the mountains into the correct positions, carved the ocean [...]
There are five kinds of goblins in Monstru, and none of them seem to find any form of respect by monster or beast. Generally, most folks are completely unaware that the goblins even exist. (Some say that they don’t even deserve a capital “b”, let alone a write-up in the annuals of history.) Furnace goblins [...]

Summoned from the fires of damnation, the Daemon are a race that are stuck in MONSTRU, with no way back. Fragments of historical records indicate that “a dozen upon dozen daemon” were summoned by the Monstonian Sorcerer Hib, in an effort to create a brigade that would defeat Barondook in the Mighty War. In the [...]
Formed by inventor Mig Nola, the Factory Rebellion was the first organization to stand up before the rising Authority. Patriots of Monstonia, they saw the coup and attempted to rally support for maintaining the golden age of Monstru.

Hul are massive, hairy beasts, traditionally used as beasts of burden. They are most similar to Earth’s Ox, though they are 10 times larger, but smellier and more rotten tasting. The flavor of Hul (pronounced “hool”) meat is the one thing that has prevented this creature from becoming extinct. Hul are incredibly strong, and are [...]
There are rumored to be 6 (or perhaps more) pairs of greater clockworks in Monstru, and all are secret and carefully guarded by the Authority. Formed in pairs, they allow instantaneous travel between the two synced devices. It requires an immense amount of energy to move any amount of mass around, though it little matters [...]
Greater Daemon Ages ago the Monstonian Sorcerer Hib summoned the Greater Daemons to defeat the nation of Barondook. Unable to contain and bind more than one at a time, the others quickly ran away, licking their wounds, and counting their fingers and toes. It is said that “9 upon 9″ Greater Daemons were summoned, though [...]
The Haunts are semi-corporal creatures caught somewhere between the last world, Monstru, and the next. Most were created in the cataclysmic and unnatural explosion of the Pathos Bomb, during the Mighty War (1200 odd years ago). They appear as large, billowly creatures, with gaping mouths, tiny wings, and sad eyes. They can have hands when [...]
