"This book contains information on Apparitions that you may or may not want your players to be familiar with right away. As CM, it is up to you to decide what information is available to your players and when. To make this job a little easier, each of the creature listings that appear in the chapters to follow has four distinct parts. Following the name of the creature and basic qualifiers (Type and Category) is the Medium's Introduction, which provides a basic description of the creature and of its origins, motivations, and abilities. This could be considered information any SAVE envoy would know without having to do much research....This format is specifically designed for the use of Information (Knowledge and Research) Skills. It's up to the individual CM to define Target Numbers and so forth for each encounter, but use the following guidelines for giving players the information in the creature listings. Again, these are simply guidelines. You, as CM, may decide that some information simply can't be known by the player characters before they see the creature in action for themselves. In that case, adjust the previous rules accordingly. Information for the CM's eyes only follows each creature listing in a Chill Master's Notes section. Here you will find complete game statistics for each creature,....In some cases, creatures in this sourcebook are duplications of those found in the Chill hardcover. In these cases, you will be referred to the hardcover for statistics and other information in order to avoid repeating previously published material. This sourcebook presents only new information or, when necessary, clarifications on these creatures. (from using this book: a note to Chill Masters)
