Bestiary
The Bestiary is an in-game catalog of the various entities in Terraria and the Spirit Classic mod, including enemies, NPCs, critters, and bosses. It can be viewed by opening the inventory and pressing ⚒ Use / Attack on the book icon located to the right of the item trash can, at the bottom right of the inventory. The Bestiary displays a description and basic statistics for each entity, including health, damage, defense, and knockback resistance, as well as advanced information like item drop rates. Entries can be sorted and filtered by various criteria, like stats, locations, times, events, etc.
Spirit Classic adds 204 new entries to the Bestiary to cover most of its characters. All entries from Spirit Classic have the Spirit Classic filter.

Dreamlight Jelly | 5 | Jelly Deluge | A tiny Lunazoa that emits a gorgeous, dreamlike green glow. A genetic mutation is the source of their chartreuse gleam, but also prevents them from ever maturing. |
Dreamstride Wisp | 1 | Blood Moon | The essence of a nightmare, often appearing during the practice of 'blood corruption'. They wheeze and moan in silent pain. |
Dungeon Cube | 2 | The Dungeon | Mindless stone automatons built to be aware of their surroundings and attack on sight. |

Feral Shambler | 1 | Briar | The line between flora and fauna is blurred in the briar. The reanimated bones of adventurers act animalistic, despite it being composed mostly of plants. |
Festerfly | 2 | The Corruption | The putrid scent of the corruption was bound to attract flies, and sure enough, it did. Now corrupted and ravenous, they follow the scent of any fresh meat they can find. |
Flesh Hound | 2 | Blood Moon | A nasty prowling canine that rears its head only under the vermillion light of a Blood Moon. Though it may feed, the hunger will always remain. |

Gladiator Spirit | 2 | Marble | Be wary of this spirit, they have the unique ability to fortify their nonexistent bodies, making them resistant to damage, destroy their armor and release their soul! |

Goblin Grenadier | 1 | Goblin Invasion | When spiky balls aren't cutting it, good old fashioned shrapnel-spitting explosives should do the trick. |
Gold Lumoth | 4 | Caverns | Rarely, critters are found coated entirely in gold! Shopkeepers will pay handsomely for these, or you can show them off in cages! |

Granite Slime | 2 | Granite | A gelatinous creature that's roamed the Granite caves for a long while, accumulating enough pebbles and dust to become one with the stone. |

Orbitite | 2 | Asteroids | This insignificant asteroid orbits a larger body, but will one day leave the nest and drift into the vast universe. |

Shadow Ghoul | 2 | Underground Spirit | Ghouls reanimated by the Spirit now leak ectoplasm from every crevice. Their bites have a chance of confusing their foes by briefly showing them glimpses of their former lives. |
Shockhopper | 1 | Asteroids | Originally mistaken for machines, these shock happy organisms travel near asteroid belts to feed off the abundance of exposed minerals. |
Skeleton Brute | 2 | Blood Moon | As a specimen, yes, they're intimidating. In a swinging match, nobody swings like a Skeleton Brute. |
Snaptrapper | 5 | The Jungle, Rare Creature | Very little has been observed about this shrouded creature. It is six legged and bears claws, leading most to believe it is some form of arthropod. |

Winterborn Herald | 2 | Underground Snow | Long after forseeing the destruction of their tribe, these once elite mages now follow in the footsteps of their brethren, seeking to rebuild. |
Wooden Crate Mimic | 1 | Ocean | These inconspicuous imposters are rather suspicious. Exercise caution before approaching them for what lies within. |
Wrathful Soul | 2 | The Underworld | Easily angered, this soul is eternally ablaze because of its sheer rage. All this energy is then released as it charges forward to blow up at any little thing. What a hothead. |
Excluded and unachievable entries
Certain NPCs/enemies do not have Bestiary entries at all:
- Infernus Skull, as it shares its entry with Infernon.
- Cobbled Eye, Cystal Shield, Infernon Skull, Kakamora Rider, Laser Bomber, Laser Launcher, and Starfarer, due to lack of identity.
- Trident Zombie, due to it being an Expert Mode-exclusive variant.
- Bioluminescent Algae, Copper Chest, Debris, Explosive Barrel, Fathomless Vase (Mimic and Gold variants), Gold Chest, Platinum Chest, Silver Chest, and Supernova, due to their natures of not being typical NPCs.
