This might have already been mentioned somewhere, but are there any new monsters in the MM? Not updated monsters or retuned retro monsters, but straight up brand spankin new, never before seen until right now monster?

The empyrean is new, although you can argue that it's a revised titan (classical style).

You could argue that a few of the specific animated objects are new, but that's a pretty wild stretch IMHO.

Other than that, all of the monsters in the MM are classics. It's a pretty good list, too- the only things I'd have replaced are the quaggoth, nothic and homonculus. IMHO there are many far better choices.

Man, I love the Quaggoth. I had forgotten all about them until I found them the other night. I immediately wrote up a underdark mercanary group made up of quaggoth with a spellcaster (Thonnot?) as a leader.

Needle blights are basically renamed needlemen from the 1e FF.

I was looking for some art when you ninja'd me.
