Sun Wukong is a sweet unique NPC in Mythological Figures and Malevolent Monsters. He’s a very cool legendary figure from Chinese mythology. Also, being a monkey, he is classified as a beast.
Polymorph provides: “The target’s body is transformed into a beast with a Challenge Rating equal to or less than its own. If the target doesn’t have a Challenge Rating, use its level.”
Can Polymorph turn a level 12 player character or a CR 12 monster into Sun Wukong? A related question is whether beasts with the elite tag, such as the Dread Spider Champion, are valid selections.
(Answers appealing to DM fiat are correct—it’s the DM’s game—but unlikely to be helpful.)
Thanks!
