Gear from other sources and setting values that yield no treasure I had considered putting something in to let people know what the min and max values of a given item category were since setting numbers that cause no treasure to generate will always be possible. If nothing else, you would get...

The treasure generator has been released by Monster Advancer. It currently has 2 methods of treasure generation that allow the DM to have the control he/she has always wanted. It generates all types of items and even creates weapons, armor and shields using all the appropriate properties where...

More to do You are quite welcome. If you have any thoughts on any of the apps let me know as always. The chart application is obviously the most recent and the one I have been spending the most time on, however, most of the upgrades that I came up with for the chart app will be folded into the...

Ever thought a random encounter generator was just not enough? Now you can generate whole charts of random foes which get grouped together rather nicely into groups of similar monsters. Did I mention you can customize the chart to use any creature types, templates, environments, or alignments...

Lizardfolk and more My pleasure as always. Got a few good templates added as well (Dire and Flame-spawned). I am going to have to add some way to view descriptions of templates in advance as well as descriptions of creatures as I continue to add creatures/templates from other sources that...

From the Source I see where you are going with this and while there has been a lot of speculation about interpretation, none of that is not necessary. I have a direct answer to your question from the horse's mouth. Trip attacks are addressed in this article by the man himself, Skip Williams...

Ultimate Monster Creation That is a brilliant question. In fact, one of my original ideas was to create an application that could build and design monsters that are even more dynamic than the print medium could really allow. This means building them from the ground up, but it also means that...

Hurdles I can fully appreciate what you are looking for. It was worth mentioning that the primary reason you will have a tough time finding what you want is that applications cannot include what you want legally. At least not without doing tricky things. Except for the core books, none of the...

Lizardfolk on the way I believe I had already promised Ogrork the Lizardfolk. I will get right on that. Lizardfolk should never had been overlooked in the first place.

In the interest of keeping people in the loop I figured I would provide some information about what is upcoming in the Monster Advancer. I recently finished a list of my top-level features, fixes and ambitions and have prioritized them. I hoped providing these to the community might spark some...

Pyro-Hydra and Cryo-Hydra Hydra appears to be one of the creatures I ended up duplicating. Some are in there as Hydra, 8-headed and others as 8-headed Hydra. The 8-headed don't have a CR as the CR in the monster manual is based on whether they are cryo, pyro or normal hydras. I will remove the...

More Templates Sorry about that. The Dead Template is supposed to change the hp to 0 as well...I will get that fixed.

Leveled Up Again! Hey all! Just got a major release done last night. 404 new creatures and all NPC classes have now been added. Nearly all core SRD creatures are done now except for psionics and epic (which I have mostly done as well but I wasn't sure how much desire there was for said...

Vegetable Mind I found this to be an interesting train of thought so I did a bit of research. I found an early article from wizards that says the following: What is worth noting is that they talk about plants capable of conversing and negotiating which means they were considering intelligent...

More creatures!!! The Overlord does not want to dash any hopes especially those of the faithful. I have a list of creatures which are 98% done. I parsed them out of another database and converted them to the format I need to consume and use...but there are still a few things to clean up and I...
