For general DND, i would say the following: Lord of the Rings/The Hobbit Conan Dragon Age: Inquisition Baldur’s Gate 3 One Piece, mostly the feel of it and the wacky worldbuilding The Forgotten Realms There are many more i could include, but more for my own table, not necessarily what I...

Its not strictly a nighttime creature, but you could use gnolls

Boggarts and similar fairy could work. Or you could use shadows with some added flavor text. I’ll rack my brain for any other ideas

Hey, it’s belaphoss. Like the change they did to his weapons, while keeping them mechanically the same (compared to other balors).

Ah man, that blue dracolich in the link is sick too. Also the Blob of Annihilation has an interesting approx which reminds me of amoebas and such

Love the monstrous appearance of the balor vs. the regal appearance of the pit fiend. I feel like it highlights the fundamental differences between demons and devils

I’ve thought the same, and it’s something I addressed in my own setting. Almost every power has at least one enemy and one ally. Its mostly Homebrew, so it doesn’t answer your question, but i can give a couple of examples. Mohroi (LG) has a particular disdain for Orcus (CE, obviously) and...

Good point I’ve seen that once before. Fun and flavorful abilities like that are nice to see in a creature. Would make sense if all the paragons are in that range (officially at least).

Surprising. From what i figured they were akin to demigods/lesser deities since some place them as the creators of demons/yugoloths

It kind of makes sense. On’t they come in and rebalance planar energies? Didn’t think about it until i saw this, but are the animal lords supposed to replace Talsid and his companions? That’s a fair point. I would simply prefer for each major side to have rough equivalents to one another.

I would think the different groups would have their own contender. That’s fair, I just would expect it to be closer or possibly higher considering its reputation That’s a fair assessment. I hope its the case. True, I just think each group should have a high CR entry

I was looking at both official and 3PP content, and it left me wondering. Why are some of the highest ranked/most powerful of outsiders (baernoloth, throne archon, leonal) so much weaker than others (balor, pit fiend)? To be clear this isnt about the celestial paragons or archfiends. Wouldn’t...

I would love to see the dream larva, devastation vermin, and many of the abominations from 3.X get an official update.

Me and my brother made a spell like this called “Durran’s Draining Dome” It’s a powerful conjuration spell that creates a dome (surprise) that can drain ability scores, and heal you depending on how many ability points are drained.

Ok, in your newer version, the Draconic Actions use the similar wording as lair actions, hence my confusion. Flawless logic honestly. Love it. Good analogy, makes sense, i like it.

1. I like the charging breath mechanic. Gives a brief chance to almost certain death. 2. In the Colossal trait, i would change “pushed” to “forcibly moved”, so that Ephelmon cannot be pulled either. 3. Will you add the “War Party” action you had before where he could summon githyanki? 4...

Ah, i understand that. Sometimes a monster is genuinely a one-time use

Great selection of books, still want to get a physical copy of Dragonix’s stuff. I’ve done that, used an Ogre statblock to represent a commoner who got blasted with an enlarge ray. Vine Dragons sounds cool. Do you have a link to them, would love to see em. Nice. Big fan of the variants...

Did you mostly use official creatures, or did you use your own/other’s Homebrewed creations more? Either way, what was your favorite monster of the entire campaign? Was there one statblock you were able to reuse a ton?

Did you have any in-game separations of the group for long periods of time (2 or more sessions)? If so how did you balance and make sure everyone still had fun?
