No lions or tigers... oh my

[Rechan]

Just reskin a monster.

This.

Monkeys? Goblins, with a climb speed.

Leopard? Use feypanther stats. Cheetah? Feypanther, decrease level, give it higher speed. Elephant? Macetail or Bloodspike Behemoth (though with a goring charge from the Minotaur or Gorgon Statblock). Rhino? Gorgon, without the petrification. And so on.

There's a lack of normal animals too. Jeez

The lack of stats for housecats is a feature, not a bug.

I have a feeling that most regular animals will come in the same MM along with the PHB that has the Druid...

W00T-- these are good-- but I would also give them Stealth and Perception as a trained skill. Still great work! I like that you did the raking claws as ongoing damage rather than additional attack rolls!

Good call on the Stealth - they actually have Perception as trained, it's just at the top of the block.

I was going to do a rhino, but I found the dire boar suited my purposes fine, to be honest.

 

[hong]

I'm going to do a sheep.

I'm going to do a sheep.

Your personal life is your business, but we're talking D&D...

I'm going to do a sheep.

I thought Aussies said that was NZ thing.

Someone could become very popular with a simple website on "useful monster reskins"

I'd do it myself if I could find the time.
