[QUOTE="Demetrios1453, post: 7331235, member: 6801060"] Back well before Volo's, I created a list of 100 monsters that I wanted to see updated for 5e. Volo's did update a fair number of them, but there are still quite a few to bring into the new edition, including quite a few planar creatures. Going off my list, if they were to do a planar monster book in Volo's style, I would like to see something like this: The types of creatures covered in depth: celestials (easier to cover them together so as to save room for others), demons, devils, gith, modrons, slaadi, yugoloths. Volo's had nine, but this will allow for more space for coverage of each type. Granted, celestials can be split out into the main three groups to get to nine. Elementals (including genies) could be added as well for some inner planes variety. In the bestiary part, since most of the important demons and devils were covered in the MM, we would probably only need a few more of them to appear. However, there are lots of missing yugoloths, and the entirety of hierarch modrons need updating as well. Demodands/gehreleths, guardinals, archons, and eladrin need to be re-introduced and updated (although how they deal with the mess 4e made of the latter two remains to be seen). I would love to see different sized elementals, and I would very much hope to see xag-ya and xeg-yi. And if we're going astral with the githyanki, then we need to see the astral dreadnought...
