D&D 5E (2014) Monsters You Miss

[Quickleaf]

I add my voice to wanting to see these monsters in the next MM...

Actaeon
Banderhobb
Catoblepas
Leucrotta
Nymph
Quickling

I'd also add these to the mix...

Genie (Jann & tasked)
Giant (formorian)
Grey Philosopher
Lamia


More than specific monsters, however, I'd like to see a greater ratio of higher CR (9+) critters.

 

[Sacrosanct]

Just want to pipe in why nudity is not necessarily tasteless, that's all.

The amazing of acceptance to violence, yet sensual content is considered negative.

FWIW, I agree with you; in some cases it can be very tasteful. Just that with the increased scrutiny in the industry, showing an exposed breast in this context (a monster in a MM) would be a mistake, that's all. In the context of a D&D game manual, there are a lot of reasons why it would be a bad idea, and not a whole lot of why it would be a good idea. IMO of course.

Giant (formorian)

Do you mean Fomorian Giants?, because they are already in the book.

Along with Lamia for that matter.

 

[diaglo]

Ent
Hobbit
Balrog
Apts
Banths
Thoats
Calots
Orluks
Thorks
Darseen
Sith

from OD&D(1974)

 

[Sailor Moon]

A few others I would like to see.

Baelnorn
Bane Liches
Thought eater
Hippogriff
Hippocampus
Wolfwere

 

[Eejit]

I'd hoped for some Mind Flayer variations other than just an Arcanist.

So Alhoon and Ulitharid mostly. The others could anyway wait for an Underdark splat book.

 

[Mouseferatu]

Oh! Skeleton warrior. The one with the "circlet of control" and all that.

 

[SkidAce]

Oh! Skeleton warrior. The one with the "circlet of control" and all that.

I really like that one.
