Demonomicon: Jubilex

[Obryn]

Dungeons & Dragons Roleplaying Game Official Home Page - Article (Juiblex, the Faceless Lord)

Wow. Articles like this are what won me over to DDI in the first place, and I'm happy I resubbed. It's a great article, with a very scary Epic solo, tons of flavor text, a few other creatures for encounters, and even some great art. Heck, a template and some traits, too. There's enough here for a short campaign arc, really.

Well done, Mr. Schwalb!

Really classy article. More of this is needed. This is an A+ effort from Dungeon (for once).

Plus it actually did come out this week. Rejoice!

Much love for Juiblex, and for this article. I love the two powers that recharge when the other is used. The story of Juiblex is great, a nice reimagining that fits the 4e cosmology really well and still keeps the Faceless Lord's history in the game intact.

As Obryn notes, this kind of article can be the seed for a solid chunk of a campaign. Whether demon lord, archfey, primordial, god, or Far Realm monstrosity, Dungeon needs more articles like this.

This is a rad article. Also, I love monster themes.

Great article and - surprise, surprise - TWO pieces of art!

I had assumed the article had been held over. Was it published on Friday or Saturday morning? It had dropped off the content calendar so I had assumed that we would be seeing it next week.

Really nice. Been a long time since we have seen Demonomicon article. It didn't disappoint.

I would have liked a version/aspect to fight at lower levels, maybe like 16. But once it's in the monster builder I can do what I want with it. Muahaha!

not only a useful article, but an article that will be useful specifically for my running campaign...

There is a template to create an aspect of Juiblex out of any ooze that Juiblex temporarily "inhabits". That means you can have an elite ooze aspect at practically any level.

Looks like Friday evening. I've seen this happen a bunch of times now, and they don't always update the calendar with new articles until the following day, so now I have to check there and on the main D&D page, and do so a couple times per day if I want to read something same-day.

I miss the days when the content calendar actually meant something, both in the sense that it contained a decent amount of content, and in that it was a schedule that they actually adhered to.
