Notes: All three species are rare enough that all individuals qualify for the Marked defect.
Bandersnatch
The Bandersnatch resembles a gigantic centipede. Its speed is legendary, and "Might as well try to catch a Bandersnatch" is a popular saying in the lands near its home, used in response to a proposed action that the speaker believes impossible.
A Bandersnatch attacks from ambush, rushing forward with incredible speed. Its favorite tactic is grabbing its prey with its many multi-jointed legs and then swiftly wrapping silk-like cords around it. (In game terms, this is a "Snatch" grappling attack followed by a "Banding" tangle attack.) If outnumbered, it will flee at high speed, then continue stalking the group until it sees an opportunity to grab a straggler.

Jabberwock
The Jabberwock is a four-legged, semi-upright, winged, dragon-like creature (see Tenniel's illustration in Through the Looking-glass). The breath and wings of this horrible monster make a great deal of noise, so it eschews stealth and cunning in favor of brute force and speed in hunting its prey. It attacks by biting and clawing, often attempting to carry half-subdued prey back to its lair to eat at its leisure. Only a hero wielding a "vorpal sword" (a weapon of ill-defined properties) stands a chance of killing it quickly.

Jubjub
The Jubjub is a gigantic, long-legged bird resembling both a parrot and a crow, with feathers of many different colors. It is a king of birds, commanding most avians it encounters, and is usually accompanied by a flock of normal birds of mixed species. It is most renowned for its panic-inspiring scream; most hear the Jubjub long before they see it.
