Mythical Beasts & Where to Farm Them: Exploring Terraria's Bestiary

Just going to set the record straight here:
Zoologist does not have fur, that is her skin color.

Here's the real debate: Human nose or canine nose. I figured a human with ears and tail all along. I need this settled and we can finally come into fan art synchronicity.

Here's the real debate: Human nose or canine nose.

She's got the exact same profile as the other NPCs and the player. So unless they all have snouts too she's got a normal human face.

Apologies if this was already discussed somewhere and I missed it, but would it be possible to search the Bestiary by item drop? Seems like I spend much of my time in the Wiki looking for which monsters drop a specific item. This would certainly make crafting the Ankh Shield much more enjoyable.

Human nose. In the specific words of her designer, Lazure:

"only her ears are affected and she has a tail"

 

[Ilmarinen]

I don't understand what is kemomimi or kemono.

To make a better explanation kemomimi is a human with animal characteristics (like ears and a tail), kemono is an anthropomorphized animal. Kemono just means "beast" in Japanese and is what most people would refer to in English as a furry, although it's come more to specifically mean Japanese style anthro character as opposed to "furry" meaning western style anthro character.

Zoologist does not have fur, that is her skin color.

Thanks for the confirmation.

Because it's a game frequently played by pre-adults, that's why. She's at least mostly human, and humans wear clothes.

The Lost girl would like a word with you, although I guess she's not technically human.

I know her face has the exact same profile, but some fan art has been depicting her with a normal human face with a canine nose with no snout.

I need to nail this to a church door somewhere. The fan artists must hear the word.

What's that npc in #13 slot?

Well that's kind of a disappointing confirmation, was hoping she'd be more of a monster race and less of an anime girl beastkin.

What's that npc in #13 slot?

That would be the new Golfer NPC.

 

[Pixus]

That would be the new Golfer NPC.

Or there might be another new NPC we don't know about.

It's a filled in slot. We know it's the golfer. The slots that are missing are the 3 before Travelling Merchant.

Oops; sorry, that's what I was referring to. My bad.

 

[Pepimir]

Woow I just calculated and there will be cca 100 ne mobs/npcs/critters/bosses added since current version has (If I calculated correctly) +-417 of them!

I'm really excited about those turtles and a ladybug, some kind of a mythical butterfly. Man amazing, can't wait for it to come out!

 

[Pepimir]

at long last I will no longer accidentally kill bunnies by dashing into them

also, new turtle critter? (41)

edit: also also, assuming the bestiary groups NPCs together that means there are at least 3 new NPCs we haven't seen at all yetView attachment 270021
edit 2: I think the 3 slots are for the town pets (since they probably count as NPCs) dog, cat, and bunny

Also there is a ladybug in some of the photos, super excited to see what it does just like the turtle one !

I love this but my only problem is that the new npc looks like (and may be) a furry.
lets be real here.

We have already settled this. Do we really need a label right on the front page stating “NOT A FURRY!!!”
Look at the previous comments to see why.

That's a GOOD thing, Cookie.

It doesn't matter if she is a furry or not.
And let's be real here, you're probably going to be farming for things instead of talking to her anyways.

 

[Digitus]

I dont care if shes a furry,i dont even mind,i just look her as an human animal,nothing strange,i just want to have every data of monsters.
