See the original FIend Folio. Oh wow, what a beaut!Now, the 4thd ed Monster Manual is superb for mechanics/useablility, that's improved, but it's fluff sucks goblin nuts by comparison !! <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" />D&D is a hell of a lot more than just a game mechanic. IMHO, the baby is sliding out with the bath water, at present...</blockquote>
