Cant wait for W for the wraith. I want to see if it's attack add strafe. Strafe seems very detached from combat and integrated only to journeys. Maybe that is intended, but a strafe (which in my head is despair) inducing attack is cool.

Back in the day, 1st and 2nd edition wraiths were horrifying. 5e ones are wee babes… nothing was more scary than level draining. Darkwynters sits in his rocking chair, speaking of the olden days

3.5 wraith were still pretty terrifying by dealing con(?) damage with touch attacks too. I'm in a frostmaiden game where the druid fighter & cleric were sleeping with catnap with just the wizard & sorcerer awake when the gm threw out a wraith, one player literally said "whatever just burn it down so we can finish the rest"

[MathewOfEarth2]

Looks very impressive. I love sea creatures like those!

Q is for.... wait, there is no Q. Instead, in place of Q, let's post the contents page! As always, this is a sneak preview of a preliminary draft work-in-progress, and will change.

Notes --

• All plural monsters will get sub-entries added to the ToC; some have them so far, but not all.

I can't wait to show off the wraith. Especially the wraith lord...
