That's cool, but I very rarely tell my players the name of what they're facing... I just describe the creature. It goes toward preventing them looking the creature up in the Monster Manual. Preserves the mystery. Hehe!

They could both probably fill a role in a Lost World type game, couldn't they? I see what you mean about the Pounce for a smaller version of the creature... no, that wouldn't happen, would it? Hehe!

What is their role? That's a good question. Well, the adventurers will be venturing into the Lizard Marsh (in the Forgotten Realms), an area that contains dinosaurs. But they'll be doing this at a lowest level so I wanted some dinosaurs that would occupy the same role as wolves. As to the name...

I'm about to embark on running the Age of Worms for my group, using 5th Edition D&D. Rather than finding alternative monsters, I'm going to use a conversion document I found at http://www.reddit.com/r/DnD/comments..._guides_found/. My first conversion for the Whispering Cairn adventure is the...

Many thanks for your responses :)

They are evil puppets that first appeared in the Ravenloft adventure, The Created. Quoting from the Ravenloft 3rd Edition Denziens of Darkness: "When in repose, a carrionette appears to be nothing more than a brightly painted wooden marionette, with jointed limbs and holes where a puppeteer’s...
