 In [[Dungeons & Dragons 3rd Edition]], the Tome of Magic was a way to introduce three new alternative types of [[magic]]; completely new systems, each with its own signature class, as well as appropriate new [[Prestige Classes]], magical items, monsters and sample organizations.
-The first of these three new systems was ''Pact Magic'', exemplified by the '''[[Binder]]''' class. This is generally considered the best of the systems added, being unique, flavorful, relatively easy to understand, and with solid mechanics.  This chapter also introduces 7 new monsters that are all associated with one of the many [[Vestige]]s that Binders can summon.  The new monsters are: [[Deadly Dancer]], [[Deathshead]], [[Horned Beast]], the [[Karsite]] race with a 1st-Level Warrior as an example, [[Roving Mauler]], [[Murder of Crows]] Swarm, and [[Tooth Beast]].  None of them actually use Pact Magic and are more for showing the influence of Vestiges on the world.
