Beast & Bramble Codex

The Beast-Rolls

The Cull's official bounty registry justifying Warden actions and fueling community fear regarding fell-beasts.

The Beast-Rolls stand as the central instrument of control for the Cull, functioning as a formal bounty registry that catalogs specific creatures marked for elimination. These documents list fell-beasts designated as threats, serving not merely as records but as the official justification required for the Wardens to carry out their duties.

Beyond mere administration, the rolls actively drive fear within the community by defining what constitutes a danger. However, this authority faces direct opposition from Rowan's farm, which challenges the validity of these lists by demonstrating that many listed beasts are actually harmless.

Lore & Background

The existence of the Beast-Rolls legitimizes the Cull's operations, transforming biological encounters into bureaucratic targets. By maintaining this registry, the organization ensures that every Warden action has an official record backing it up against potential scrutiny.

Yet, the absolute authority of these rolls is not unchallenged. Rowan’s farm serves as a counter-narrative to the Cull's narrative, proving through direct observation that the registry often misidentifies harmless creatures as fell-beasts requiring elimination.
