The previews just keep coming for Fable: The Lost Chapters, Lionhead Studios' upcoming role playing game. This time 1UP.com decides to spice things up with some monster descriptions offered from the perspective of a hunter in the lands of Fable. The Hero Huntsmen's Monthly takes a somewhat whimsical approach to previewing the upcoming game but still manages to offer a glimpse of the terrors players may face.

For the discerning hunter, the fellow who wants to feel he's pitting himself against an equal out in the wilds I have one piece of advice: Get a new hobby! That's not what hunting's all about! You want to go and get yourself killed? Go take on a Summoner! These bad boys look tough: crackly lightning holding together plate armour, holding swords the size of a small state, pulling bolts of explosive energy out of the air. One look into their skull-faces tells you they mean business. If you want to survive a meeting with one of these, and if you can't hit the broad-side of a barn with an arrow or bolt, then get yourself nice and Berserked and go in there swinging for your life! If you're lucky, they'll fall to their knees after a while and you can run. Trophies from Summoners are rare since they kind of explode as a last insult, showering the area with pieces of skull and armour. Again, not really one for the trophy case.
