The defenders of Snowbrook Haven never had a chance. The hideous shard brought plague and death over the walls, and the survivors of the great battle were instantly corrupted.

The chance is for one kill of this creature (level 33 / 58 / 79 in Mercenary / Veteran / Elite) with magic find at 0: the chance that its drop table rolls an item of this kind, times this item’s share of the items that can come out at that level. Items with the same name are added up. Creatures of the same kind that the Bestiary lists under other names share the same drop table at their own level. Computed from the game’s drop tables, not measured. A source rolls the entries of its drop table; an entry asks the game’s item table for one item of the right class inside a level window; every matching item is equally likely (the game picks a random row, there is no rarity weight). Chance is per kill or per opening, with magic find at 0.
Where it is found
| Place | Placed | Spawned | Random encounters |
|---|---|---|---|
| The Snowbrook Haven Courtyard | 1 |
Confidence: Medium From the game’s map files. How many random encounters you meet is a roll the data does not fix.
Does it count for the Bestiary?
Too few exist
Fewer exist in a playthrough than the entry asks for.
- Base game book
- No. 284
- Kills needed
- 5 kills
One is placed (Snowbrook Haven Courtyard). The entry asks for 5.
Confidence: High the audit of the data files, confirmed by the in-game kill test
In-game kill test: k 1 of 5, not unlocked; unlocked with 5 more (agrees with the data audit)
Natural spawn census: seen in 6 of 10 runs, most in one region: 2. A lower bound; a run only loads the areas near the party.
Bestiary fix package (in testing, not released): one kill is enough.
Confidence: High Tested on a private copy of the game.
Kill counts are kept separately for Mercenary, Veteran and Elite. See how the Bestiary works.
