BRIGANDINE ABYSS features a Lunadea summonable bestiary that factions recruit through the Brigandine system. The Lunadea bestiary index covers six named species — dragon, unicorn, golem, fairy, vampire and dullahan — each with elemental variants, a combat role, faction affinity and recruitment prerequisites. Monster categories are drawn from official store copy; the launch build does not include every monster from the broader Lunadea canon. The research-date roster scope covers monsters confirmed by the Steam store page and the RPGFan PAX East 2026 hands-on.

Frontline monsters

Frontline monsters are high-HP monsters that anchor Attack Phase clashes on contested hexes. The Lunadea species classified as frontline at launch include dragon and golem, with dullahan as an elite frontline variant. They are typically recruited by Scarlet Will and Pandemyuon Empire, but every faction can field frontline monsters once the Brigandine artifact grows. Frontline monsters are most effective when supported by Rally actions from a high-level general.

Magical monsters

Magical monsters amplify Rally actions and Brigandine aura. The Lunadea species classified as magical at launch include unicorn and fairy, with vampire as a faction-affinity magical variant. They are typically recruited by Mystiaine and Pandemyuon Empire, and they are most effective when paired with magical specialists. Magical monsters scale with the Brigandine artifact growth and are best deployed behind a frontline of knights.

Support monsters

Support monsters heal or buff friendly units in adjacent hexes. The Lunadea species classified as support at launch include fairy, which provides magical aura and healing effects. They are typically recruited by Alicebell and Samura Clan Republic, and they are most effective when paired with defensive terrain bonuses. Support monsters scale with the Brigandine artifact growth and are best deployed alongside elite knights.

Faction-affinity monsters

Faction-affinity monsters unlock through per-faction Brigandine growth. The Lunadea species classified as faction affinity at launch include vampire and dullahan, with dragon, golem and unicorn also pairing with specific factions. Each faction has a small set of monsters with a strong affinity to its leader and Brigandine artifact. Faction-affinity monsters are most effective when paired with the matching faction's roster; cross-faction use is possible but less powerful.
