Where to hunt
What walks where, and at which level. Hunt things at your own level or a little below, and go further out as you grow.
The numbers are the creatures' levels where they really live: the same beast can be bigger on the road than in the grove. Creatures well above your level hit much harder than their numbers suggest, and many only come out at night or in the rain.
