As I think I said in the Edited Guide Writing Workshop (I hope I did, can't remember now), I really like this article, it's content and style.
One question I had when reading this was what is a kobold ghost?
Also, you mention that Rumo was a Wolpertinger puppy that Bluebear had rescued on one of his adventures. Was he rescued from the giant you mentioned earlier? (I'm guessing from what you've said above the answer is yes, but if so, why not state this in the article?)
There are a few minor spelling things.
At the eastern shores of Zamonia lied its huge capital – either lies or lay. I'd use 'lay' as that paragraph is all past tense, although the following one is present.
ships's kobold ghosts – ships'
puppies from a giant wants to sit down on their house.- perhaps add 'who' between 'giant wants'
traveling - travelling
You've written both colorbears and color bears, but color bears more often.
Unfortunately his family and himself – Unfortunately he and his family
'MIrror the Cat' – Mirror
The article has a mixture of both UK and US spellings, so to be consistent I'd change:
Specialize - Specialise
Stylized - Stylised
armor – armour
Please forgive my nitpicking – I've enjoyed re-reading this article and seeing it making its way in Peer Review.

I'm afraid kobold ghosts is something Moears simply made up does it help if I tell they scare seafarers?
Yes, Rumo is one of these puppies. This actually is not told in the Rumo book as far as I remember but is part of a later meeting of Bluebear and Rumo in Captain Bluebear.
Thanks, I'll make these corrections.
