Unfortunately, all these styles cannot  fit into a monster entry so any DM who wishes to deviate from the norm  has to convert the monster entries of the Monster Manual to whatever  kind of monster that matches their preferred playstyle, favorite  edition, or special need.What if this was not true?[code][B]DrowNeutral Evil Medium HumanoidLevel 1 Warrio[/B]r---STAT BLOCK---[COLOR=Red][B]HP Module[/B][/COLOR]Normal: 9Gritty: 6Heroic: 14[COLOR=Lime][B]Drow Poison[/B][/COLOR]Whenever a is struck by the drow's poisoned weapon, they must succeed a DC 13 Constitution Saving throw or be poisoned.[B]Normal[/B]: Fall unconscious[B]Serious[/B]: 1d6 poison damage and fall unconscious[B]Light:[/B] Disadvantaged on Str checks and make a secondary save on their turn.

A fan of gritty  games with tons of magic items has sample items and their effects and  gritty HP. A DM who want a drow wizard with his bodyguard can use 4 gritty drow and a heroic drow controller.The only issue is the book space that will be eaten up.But colors. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f60e.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":cool:" title="Cool    :cool:"  data-smilie="6"data-shortname=":cool:" /></blockquote>
