About

The Fern Flower Bestiary is the free online companion to the books of Fern Flower Press, a small independent publisher of illustrated bestiaries and sourcebooks for fifth-edition fantasy roleplaying (5e).

Every creature here comes from one of our books, and each book is drawn from the folklore of a people or a tradition: the yokai of Japan, the spirits of Korea and Oceania, and many more. Each creature has its full stat block, ready to run at the table, and the opening of its story. The rest of the story is in the book.

Alongside them are the herbs and relics from our books of items, a hundred cursed places from around the world, and long-form research written for our YouTube channel, each told in full.
