The list is by book, broken down into statblocks and full templates. It includes real animals, fantastical creatures, and racial templates, but doesn't include occupational templates or unique individuals such as Dai Blackthorn.

If you would like to help, you can list (either here or on the wiki) creatures from books you have that aren't already listed (which is quite a few, since right now the list is limited to books I own).

I will list below, in a separate post, all the creatures I have tallied so far.
This is a great start. It would also be very nice to have one place to look up Animals/Dinosaurs/Monsters/Creatures/Beasts stats and descriptions without having to find the specific book/pdf. A creature catalog would be HIGHLY USEFUL for my games...even if it included repeat info I already own...I would still buy it. And, I would buy it in PDF as well.

I added GURPS Lands Out of Time to the list on page 1.

I left this one out before, because it's presented as a unique creature and so falls outside of the criteria I set. But what the heck, it's not necessarily unique, and it would serve well as a monster in many settings, so I included it.

Call me sad but I really like this kind of thread - thank you for doing the work - usually results in me buying another book too... Dragons is strangely tempting:)

I have created a wiki page with a sortable list of GURPS creatures here. It currently contains 468 entries, or 362 if you don't want to count lenses separately. I am not entirely satisfied with the way the list is formatted and I'm open to suggestions for improvements.

Do you not have the later Creatures of the Night books? Or Horror?

EDIT: I added everything from MH3, CotN 2-5, and Horror.

I do not (yet) have Creatures of the Night 2-5, Horror, or Monster Hunters 3, those being the titles that probably have most of the monsters that haven't been listed yet.

If anyone who does have those titles wants to list their monsters here, I'd be happy to include them in the lists on page 1 of this thread. And the GURPS Wiki, of course, is open to editing by all.
