I'm surprised shadar kai didn't make it in.

I looked through the index.

Well that is slightly disappointing.

I think they have a lot of 4e baggage - despite originating from 3.5, as well as people feeling they were being forced down our (collective) throats so to speak.

It seems that Greg Bilsland has answered my question about the demon princes and such:

"It would have taken up space of monsters that would get a lot more use. We see those as appearing as part of our major storylines."

Guess we know what the "Princes of the Apocalypse" adventure book next year will be about!

Dog is missing as well.

Well that is slightly disappointing.

Yeah. I will probably have to modify the wolf, maybe combine the wolf and cat in some aspect. I am just not sure what to replace Pack Tactics with.

 

[Mercurius]

Wow, that's a nice chunky book - at least 352 pages. Simply monstrous, I must say.

Empyrean: the new aasimar?

There really isn't any 3e or 4e specific monsters. Nothic just?

That was my question too, What is an Empyrean? There's just one stat block on the single page devotd to the monste, so it can't be too complex."Empyrean" means celestial, or related to the upper reaches of the sky.

My guess is that it's the opposite number/Celestial version of the cambion.

Disappointing, but completely understandable.

Maybe the 4e Angel?
