Bestiary

I think other folks have requested this before. Just wanted to suggest another angle. I think it would be cool if the BN Detective compiled a Bestiary as part of his duities. Or perhaps a new/different pet could have this role. It would be especially cool to document each monster encountered with some basic information:

* Location & Sub Location where encountered
* Hit Points (range?)
* Weaknesses
* Strengths

Oh, nevermind. Just found the post where this is mentioned. Basically the same thing as I just said. Should really search before posting next time...

I've actually created a simple google doc spreadsheet with this information. It has 166 monsters and almost exactly the data you wanted (I might have missed a few of them -- definitely the once-in-a-game! ones).

But, I would really love automatic information gathering (like where items can be found, especially scrolls).

I could write an AutoHotKey script which could accomplish the automatic information gathering you seek. It would take some doing, but I could append a text file with mob, item found (if any), experience and gold. You'd have to clean it up after the fact, but it would be automated.

I'm actually in the process of creating a Firefox AddOn to gather the data automatically. If it turns out to be at all useful, I'll post a link here.

If you are going for completeness then I urge you try and accommodate the information provided by the BK Detective.
