An early draft of mine had two size tables: one for humanoids and one for everything else. Simply going with a totally new table might work even better.

Take the extra percentage needed out of Insect. Unless you really want 10% of all monsters being Insects. (Pigeon likes everything to be the same chance for everything.) I think splitting Mundane into Mundane (Humanoid) and Mundane (Supernatural Beast) would solve most of my issues with that, the more I think about it. Peter's logic has something to it.

It couldn't look dumber than the Agitar on page 27. For those without the book: think a cross between a Grell and Peter Gabriel's Slipperman costume.

I was actually doing something like this for Will and Per for non-animals, though I wasn't explicit; I always left HP and FP alone unless I had a reason, not a roll. Note that almost no monster in any GURPS product has extra FP without an ability that uses FP.
High HT monsters is a pet peeve of mine too. I wonder if going straight 10-14 for HT would be better.
