I don't know if this is a good monster bio, but it's worth a try :D
Monster Name: Reeper
Gender: Who knows?
Description: Resembles a small scaly, red monkey with yellow-orange eyes, long deadly claws (about half their body length) and small sharp teeth. They walk upright, using their pointed tails to keep balance. They tend to travel in packs.
Weapons: Claws or anything sharp that may be nearby. They're surprsingly resourceful and can wield small weapons.
Extra: Can't be killed by anything other than magic or dragonfire. They multiply when you cut them in half... O_o Their speech sounds like chattering monkeys.

Chapter 8
Bentarin
The rest of the day had been pretty uneventful. Leader Niona walked him and Nate around the gigantic palace sometimes explaining what things where, or what they were used for or who used to stay there. She only joked with Nate, getting deadly serious when talking with other people. Eventually she had lead them to the room that he would be staying in. It was the largest room he had ever seen in his life.
There was plenty of room for his dragon to enter and after having destroyed most of the lamps, carpets and curtains on the way here, Mathew was glad that the dragon curled up at the foot of the bed and fell asleep. Mathew looked around the room noticing all the fine detail in the the bed, dresser and curtains. He walked out onto the balcony where he could see the training ground that he had entered from, but the wall blocked any further view.
Mathew stepped back inside and laid on the bed with his head next the dragon and his feet near the pillows. The bed was big enough that he could fight even though the dragon was taking up a bunch space at the foot of the bed.
Mathew woke to a knock at the door and a guard pocked his head in and informed him that dinner would be in fifteen minutes. Without having anything to change into, he went stepped out and heading in the direction that he believed went to the dining hall, with the dragon in tow.
After getting lost multiple times and being lead to the dining hall by a nervous servant, he pushed open the gigantic doors entering a room large enough to fit at least ten of his houses in comfortably in. Long tables filled the hall with a single shorter one raised higher up in the front near a large stain-glassed window.
At the middle of the table was the Leader Niona, with Nate to her right and the man who had been following behind everyone else when Mathew first met them to her left.

As always the eyes coming from those robes seemed to borrow into him and see his very soul. With difficulty Mathew broke his eyes away from the gaze and walked towards the table. Only one of the long tables had any people on it and wasn't even a quarter full. The gaggle of young men and women went silent as he and the dragon passed them.
When he reached the long table moved her smiling face from Nate and motioned him to a chair across from her. When he sat food was brought to him and he placed a piece of meat down in front of the dragon. Once the dragon began attacking the meat he looked up and asked,"Why is this place so huge, but there is so little people here?"
Her response was slow and no one spoke. Eventually she said,"Long ago this city was known as The City of the Bentarin. Bentarin is the old word that means protectors, we are Bentarins or protectors. Long ago we were created to protect the people of this world from the monsters of the boundary. Things like snatchers, deathmonglors and reepers"
Mathew interrupted asking,"What is a snatcher?"
He got a look that said, shut up or the story will stop, and Mathew closed his mouth waiting for her to continue.
After I short time longer with the look she said,"If you wish to learn about them, you may take some classes. Anyways, the monsters of the boundary were constantly terrorizing the people of our land so the wizards of the time decided to create the inner city to train people to fight the monsters. Eventually their plan succeeded and the boundary began to be pushed back. The cities that began to form payed tribute to us in food and supplies to help us continue to protect them."
After a short pause she continued,"Over time more and more people came to learn and brought there families. The outer city was created and began to flourish. About six-hundred years ago the boundary went silent."

"People stopped worrying about the dangers of the boundary and the new kings and queens stopped sending provisions. We lost money and merchants stopped coming here. Slowly people with trades left making us lose more and more chances for trade. Of course this made us lose more and more people and now we have almost no people to protect the borders. Only the few loyal farmers and tradesmen that have stayed manage to support each other and the few teachers and students that are still here. It is a hard life for them but we do are best to help them."
Curiously Mathew asked,"If the boundary has gone silent why is there still a need for you?"
In a whisper she responded with,"It has reawakened."
