Tome of Beasts 2 by Kobold Press

Another one of those cases where the "within field of vision" part of mage hand isn't really adhered to.

"Mom can I have dragon? "No, we have dragon at home."

Quiet you, those rules are for the players!

6th character is poor Mr Snake's long lost twin brother Snek

Snek with 98 mage hands because frankly 100 was too many what was he thinking

Yeah. ... Yeah.

I always enjoyed this aspect of D&D games: the creative, interesting enemies, places, and artifacts that you could find in some of the books/tomes. In fact, i was able to find the exact book i was thinking of at archive.org! The AD&D 2nd edition Book of Artifacts: https://archive.org/details/tsr02138add2ebookofartifacts/mode/1up Here's one of my favorites from the book, though it's been so long i really could do to give in another gander: 

So I checked and it depends on the species but one flying snake has a field of view of 308.5°. So for some species they'd be able to have hands way apart from each other

smol Praetor Rykard

> A spectral, floating hand appears at a point you choose within range. Where would that part be?

Your 7th is Solidus Snake

That's a direct ripoff of Slavic folklore, FYI https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baba_Yaga

8th is named Badger. Still a snek.

probably a previous edition?

100th and most beloved character: Some dude with a knife

Alternative Olm

Lol shockingly similar to one of my characters who was a squirrel wizard.

Everything is derivative.

I saw that too!! I was googling about it for a while this morning, fascinating stuff! I enjoy the ways that they recommend introducing the character and house into a campaign etc in the Book of Artifacts, too. I think it's cool they use real folklore to give the game flavor and interest.
