History — Monster Bestiary
Every foe you face writes itself into your logbook — portrait, lore, weakness and all. It starts empty and ends as the realm’s finest field guide, written entirely in bruises.
The Monster Bestiary is a personal encyclopaedia that fills in as you explore the world. Every time you kill a new type of enemy, that creature is permanently recorded in your bestiary with its lore, kill count, and the date you first encountered it.
Opening the Bestiary
Open the ☠ Bestiary entry on the Adventure ▾ dropdown in the top nav. Entries are shown in alphabetical order, each displaying:
- The monster's pixel-art sprite
- A lore blurb describing its nature and behaviour
- Your total kill count, colour-coded by milestone (grey / green / gold / bright at 5 / 25 / 100+)
- The date you first encountered it
- Its elemental weakness and resistance, once you have met it
- Its signature skill — revealed only after you have seen it used, with a “skills witnessed” count in the header
The header shows your total entries discovered and your all-time kill count across all recorded species.

Hunter Points and Hunter Rank
Every species rank you reach pays Hunter points, once. Your total sets your Hunter Rank, and each rank makes every overworld kill a little luckier: the item drop, dungeon keys, treasure maps and essences. It adds to the luck of a Hunt Chain. A foe far below your level finds nothing extra. Dungeon kills count towards your points.
