\chapter{How to Make Monsters}

\section{Introduction}

\begin{multicols}{2}

\subsection{All about Dragons}

\begin{boxtext}

As you embark upon your first adventure, you summon your first monster with a simple backstroke.  You write down {\tt {\tt\textbackslash dragon}}, and behold!

\end{boxtext}

\dragon

Each time you conjure the dragon, it will look a little different.
The next one might look like this:

\dragon

If you find it hard to tell the difference between all the dragons, you can give them names in square brackets with the {\tt\textbackslash NPC command}, like this:

{\tt\textbackslash dragon[\textbackslash npc\{\textbackslash M\}\{Bob the dragon\}] }

Which then makes a male dragon called ``Bob'':

\dragon[\npc{\M}{Bob the Dragon}]

The first field can also indicate a female with an {\tt\textbackslash F} (\F), a team of people with a {\tt\textbackslash T} (\T), or undead with \textbackslash D (\D).

With a little study, you can summon dozens of monsters, including {\tt\textbackslash human fighter}, {\tt\textbackslash basilisk}, and {\tt \textbackslash ghoul}.
