Warm kitty, Soft kitty, little ball of fur and death. As requested by the masses I bring to you the discussion of all of the cats of D&D! There are so many felines available for us to use both against the players and with them. While there are

To clarify a big thing real quick I am not doing Plants the monster type but actual plants. This does not include plant humanoids like Myconids, Treants or Wood Woads as those would be well under Humanoid Plants. I'll also be saving Blights and Spore Servants for later

So I grew up with movies like 'Troll in Central Park' (your first hint for the troll) but the 5e version of Trolls is decidedly not that kind of troll. These trolls are mean and don't mind attempting a TPK if disturbed. They are often feared

We are all familiar with the Bandit, the Pirate Captain, the Thug, etc. All variations on the Basic Human combat encounter. But we don't have to have what is broadly a very diverse group come off so bland and boring in our games. Which is why I do

Welcome to another Monster of the Month post, I apologize for falling off the map in April but work and life just went crazy for awhile (it still kind of is but back to the internet word mines). But I'm glad to be at it with some of

Now I know what you are thinking, oh great here comes the gingerbread candy house or the chicken legged dwelling. But this isn't going to be your typical dive into the realms of Hags. Honestly I debated this month what to do which challenged myself on what I

So you've got a ghost. Its doing its haunting thing, causing a ruckus. You know just normal chill undead floaty ghost stuff. But those silly mortals are all terrified so they offer an award to whoever can deal with the situation. Enter in the adventuring party. But we

That's right those creepy crawly bitey little buggers with all the legs and all the eyes. I hate them IRL, and will terminate any that cross over the agreed upon barrier into my home. Its a feeling alot of folks the world over share and that is easily
