that you get from the manual which I don't have. Without the name, you can't play the game. Anyone know what this is? Thanks.
Hi, this looks like a bird of some kind, like a parrott. It
is random, but at least I'll be able to play it whenever the parrott happens to appear. Thanks...

This is really a legally "grey area" ... unfortuntately it would be nearly impossible for him to prove that he owns the game, but even so there have been sites shut down recently by the $&$@% IDSA (oh, my bad, the now totally different (sarcasm) "ESA") for posting scans of manuals on the web.
However, as often is the case there is a third option. There is a site I know of that has a "Keencyclopedia" which includes just about everything from the game, including all of the creatures with pictures ...

It probably will suffice, it just may take a bit of searching to find what you're looking for.
