NPC/Monster Cards

damattage · Sep 4, 2014

I have just uploaded NPC/Monster Cards to the downloads area.

A sampling of some of the monster cards I've been toying with. Hopefully these are useful to someone.

You can find the file here in the downloads section. Please use this thread for comments.

Hello, I'm new to the forum and playing D&D in general. I found your Spell cards for 5e PDF in the downloads section a while ago, and I was wondering if there was any way to print the cards that have runoff descriptions on the opposite side (2 sided) instead of how it is now. BTW I think all of your material will be very useful when I start playing so thanks for putting it up.

[MENTION=6711256]damattage[/MENTION], I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but that looks like a bunch of WotC's text you're distributing there. They send C&Ds for that sort of thing.

Yep. Same for my spell cards and condition cards. Verbatim. Copied, pasted, font changed. I don't see a problem since I consider this fair use. If someone sends C&D then that's fine. I have no intention of running afoul of WOTC's Lawyers. If it comes to that I'll stop distributing them. Until then, I feel people should be able to use them until a better option comes along. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. I appreciate it.

Check them again. I've done a little updating to them since they were initially added. Most spell descriptions which were too long to fit on a single card now simply advise you to see the rulebook and only contain a cursory description of the spell. I'm open to other suggestions though.

That's very kind of you, but it's *me* they'll send the letter to. Sorry man, blank cards are fine, but copy/pasted text isn't something I'm willing to risk.

I mean, if you do it yourself on your Google docs or what-have-you, that's none of my business. That's probably the best way to do it. But not on here.

Thanks alot man. These will be very helpful.

As far as posting the official material, I don't see a problem with posting it. I will say that I think that only those who own the appropriate material should download this content because WotC does own it and should only be for "ease of use" purposes. Just my 2 cents.

Ok that's fine. Do what you must. I understand completely. I tried to delete them but kept getting an error.

I almost always have cards like this for NPC's and monsters when I run a game and they work really well, even when there's multiples of the same monster.
FWIW I use publisher for mine, rather than word but these look good.
