waitingforplayer2The Expanded Guide is edited by Chiaki Nanami.
The Expanded Guide begins with a condensed & re-edited version of Spengler's Guide, written several years prior. This contains broad knowledge of the 23 monster types at the time, and largely features the information covered in Ryslig's bestiary.
The new content in the Guide consists entirely of individual monster testomonials.
Submissions to the Guide can be made by anyone at any time, in a drop-off box at the Insert Coin arcade. The form below can be used as a template for any monsters looking for inspiration or structure for their entries. Nanami copies out the entries longhand, and stores the information in several locations, so that the information is never lost.
A copy of the current manuscript may be requested for casual perusal at any time.
As of now, the Expanded Guide has not yet been officially published on the peninsula.

What do you dislike about being this monster?
It's a little inconvenient that getting too wet can make me immobile on land. While I'm fortunate enough that I don't have to avoid the rain, I can't take baths without getting my full tail.
What is something unique to you about being this monster?
I can calm people down when I sing to them, which feels nice if I ever need to help a friend relax.
What types of creatures or beings influenced your monster form?
An odd mix between deep sea fish and seahorses.
What is it like to feed as this monster?
The fact that I have to kiss humans to feed off of them was pretty embarrassing until I got used to it. But when I lull humans to sleep and kiss them, it feels rather peaceful.
What are some notable physical features you have as this monster, and what do you like or dislike about them?
My scales are really bright, so almost everyone I meet comments on them. I also have big eyes and really scary looking teeth. I definitely don't look human anymore, but I don't completely hate it. My friends aren't afraid of my looks, as far as I can tell, so I've come to accept them too.
What are some notable mental changes you have as this monster, and what do you like or dislike about them?
I sometimes steal shiny things without even realizing it. It's not until it's in my collection that I realize I have something that doesn't belong to me... Also, I've noticed that I always want to swim with my friends. I wonder if that's a fish-thing?
Would you become this monster again?
It's my monster type, but yes.
Would you become this monster for good?
See above.
