 Welcome to the first issue of A Monster For Every Season, my

Spring 2012
Table of Contents attempt to create a comprehensive set of printable miniatures
for your fantasy gaming needs in four installments. As the
Introduction 2
name implies, each set will be themed to one of the seasons,
The Order of the Stick 2 more or less, with the hope that at the end, we’ve covered all
Assembly Instructions 3 the major monster (and adventurer) groups.
As the Spring installment, this first set was inspired mostly
Animals 6 by the green trees outside my window. It features an assortment
Centaurs 12 of woodland creatures, from animals to monstrous plants,
plus centaurs, fey, and other forest-dwellers. Alongside them,
Dragons 13
you’ll find their defenders: druids and rangers, in all the major
Druids 15 demihuman races. And then, for this quarter’s humanoids, I
The Fey 16 stuck with the green theme: goblins, orcs, and trolls round out
the set.
Gnolls 17 Most of the pages contain one of each type of monster, but
Goblins 18 at the end of the document, there are six pages of “Legion
Sheets;” pages that contain multiple copies of the basic troops
Monsters 20
for humanoids that are typically encoutnered in groups. That
Mounts 21 way, you don’t have to print a page five times because you
Orcs 23 want five orc warriors.
Next time, it’ll be Summer, which means it’s time for sun,
Plants 25 sand, and surf! Or—as they’re known in monster circles—fire-
Rangers 27 based, desert-themed, and aquatic creatures. See you then!

Assembly Instructions
With these simple instructions, you should be able to assemble the
miniatures in this document in no time.

What You’ll Need

• A pair of scissors.
• A penny (or any easily available coin
with a diameter around 1.9 cm)
• Tape; standard transparent office tape
will do, but so will any other tape with
a width of about 0.75 inches (1.9 cm).
• A sheet of paper printed with the
miniatures you want to assemble.

Regular copier paper will hold up for one or two

sessions, but if you plan on resuing them week
after week, try printing on heavier paper stock.
Photo paper or cardstock works nicely.

Step 1
Once you’ve printed the pages you want,
cut out each miniature along the edges of
the black rectangle that encloses each one
(not on the light grey lines).

Instructions

Step 2
Cut the black lines that run through the
two grey circles at the top and bottom of
each miniature.

If you’re using thin paper, you may want to skip this

step. It may make the finished mini too flimsy.
Assembly Instructions continued

Spring 2012
Step 3
Fold each miniature along the grey lines,
creasing it inward, away from the printed
image. There should be three folds, all fac-
ing the same direction: one in the middle,
and one on each side beneath the feet of
the illustrated character.

Step 4
Partially unfold the miniature so that the
two grey circles on either end overlap. Fit
the cut tabs together. You should have a
tiny tent-like shape.

Obviously, if you skipped Step 2, you don’t need to

worry about the cut tabs now!

Step 5
Take a penny and put it in the middle of a
piece of tape about 2 inches (5 cm) long.

Instructions

Step 6
Thread the piece of tape (sticky side
down) through the end of the tent until
the penny rests about where the grey
circle is printed on the miniature. About
a half inch of tape should stick out of each
end of the tent.
Assembly Instructions continued

Spring 2012
Step 7
Fold the exposed ends of the tape down
and around and stick them to the bottom
of the tent. Press the tape down all over
so it sticks.

Step 8
Done! Enjoy your paper miniature!

Minis for different sized monsters—like the riding

boar pictured here—may use more than one penny,
but the principle is the same. But some monsters
use smaller dimes (10¢) or larger quarters (25¢)
instead. Don’t worry, they’re marked!

Mounts
Monsters that can serve as mounts have
two additional lines near the top of the
tent. In order to make the mount ridable,
carefully cut the black line on both sides,
then fold in on both grey lines.

The cross-section of your miniature

should look like a trangle from the front
Instructions
and the letter “M” from the back.

Now you’ve created a ledge that should

support one regular-sized miniature!

What we said about paper weight goes double for

mounts! If you’re planning on using a mount for
more than one session, print it on heavy paper.
