 Introduction
Hello and welcome to the Anima: Beyond Fantasy fan-made Creation of Beings Guide.

So I don't know about all of you, but when I am building a creature or monster for Anima I
always find it such a pain to have to flip back and forth between the Core book and Those
Who Walked Amongst Us when trying to decide on its various Essential Abilities and Powers.
Eventually I just decided that I would compile all of the desired rule from the two into a single
file and from their this project was born.

Since then I have corrected any translation errors, added in most updates from Core Exxet,
as well as cleaned up a lot of the grammatical issues which will hopefully make some of the
rules make a little more sense than they did previously.

I was also lucky enough to be able to ask the great and wise Carlos B. García Aparício about
some clarifications to some of the rules and update the entries with them. For lending his time
I want to say a very big thank you to Carlos for all of his help with this project.
Thank You Carlos.

There is another important acknowledgement that I would like to make, and that is to Cathar
the Great of the fan community, while he did not have any direct involvement in this project,
it was his work on the Character Guidebook that inspired me to do this project, and to
honour him I have modelled the front page of this guide to imitate the style of his Guidebook.

I hope that people find this guide helpful, I have had quite an enjoyable time working on it and
having even one or two people finding it useful in their adventures into the world of Anima
would make it all the more worthwhile doing.

Thank You,

Black-Fox

with Damage Resistance. We are dealing with beings that,
be that because of their size or whatever special condition,
do not defend themselves from attacks, but rather they face
them absorbing the damage they cause. Let us put as an
example a dragon. Although he can move to avoid attacks,
what would normally happen is that they would strike him,
but thanks to his size and protection, he would be able to
ignore the damage. Either way, do not confuse yourself;
enormous creatures are not the only ones who can have
Damage Resistance. Other beings, like zombies or golems,
can also be placed in this category. In the following
paragraph, we will list out the two special rules that are
used to distribute the DP of those creatures that have
Damage Resistance.
To begin with, they do not develop their LP like other
creatures do. They calculate their base LP normally by using
their Constitution (see Table 4 of Anima: Beyond
Fantasy), but they increase it through their Damage
Resistance Multiplier, an amount that directly multiplies the
DP that you invest. If, for example, a being has a Damage
Resistance Multiplier of 5 and spends 100 DP in his Life
Points, he adds 500 LP to his base. The Damage Resistance
Multiplier is determined by the size of the creature by the
method indicated in Table 82, and not by its Class
(although the innate bonuses that he gains by level continue
to be added). There is no limit to the amount of DP that
can be spent to increase the LP of a being with Damage
Resistance. Given that the amount of Life Points of the
creatures with Damage Resistance is far greater than those
of other beings, they multiply by five the speed of healing
that is indicated by their Regeneration, and the amount of
LP that they obtain through spells or supernatural abilities.
Secondly, they can only spend a fourth of their total DP on
their attack ability, given that their defense capabilities are
actually the great amount of the resistance that they
possess.

“In the past, humans hesitated when they took lives, even non-human lives. But society had changed,
and they no longer felt that way. As humans grew stronger, I think that we became quite arrogant,
losing the sorrow of 'we have no other choice.' I think that in the essence of human civilization, we
have the desire to become rich without limit, by taking the lives of other creatures.”

In this section I have included translations of the creatures

that were included in the first Web Supplement released by
Anima Project Studios, as only the Gaira Dragon has ever
been included in any officially translated product, although
some of the others are mentioned by name in a couple of
the books.
I will just note that only the art for the Karridor and the
Gandalfhon are actually official artwork representing those
creatures. The others are just art that, in my opinion, give
the best depiction of what the creature looks like based on
its description.
In the future I think it would be nice to expand this
section with some interesting community made monsters
and creatures, so if anyone is interested in submitting a
creation to appear in this guide then please feel free to
