D&D 5E The Flumph!

[Sonny]

Interesting! I like their story info. Different than Pathfinder's cosmic sages, but it fits the slight link that aberrations in D&D have with psionics. Works for me!

But guys, if you read the text, you know -- this flumph is sad, guys! He's a sad little flumph! That's....adorable!

I actually prefer this more basic story of the flumph to the Pathfinder version, which changed the flumph from a relatively (simple) creature to a species whose life mission it was to help save the universe. The flumph was cool on its own terms, it didn't need a grandiose story to be awesome.

I'm now thinking of the Great Flumph, legendary badass.

In my campaign world, the circular crypt of the Temple of Life contains a vast Uber-Flumph that continually buds the more common Flumphs and the Monastic Flumphs that attend to it.

Corrupted flumphs would be cool. For some reason, thinking about that I flashed back to Descent into the Depths of the Earth and Vault of the Drow...only with flumphs. Lots of flumphs. Evil. Worshiping a giant evil flumph god/goddess.

Or maybe worshipping .. the Winslow?

Can someone please give a couple example encounters where this monster would be used, because I have played since the 1e days and this thing has never once graced my table, they are pointless wastes of space that could be used for a more interesting monster that might challenge the player characters.

Shame the OP mis-spelt the title really, or it would b easier to find.

See "Box of Flumph" from Dungeon 118.

I think the next set of adventures should be called, "The Trouble with Flumphs"

Okay, the alliteration isn't there..maybe, "The Flumph's Foibles"?

Here's a list of monsters I've never used: Aarakockra, Couatl, Flumph, Kraken, Merfolk, Modron, Nothic, Scarecrow, Tarrasque. And I was over it before I ended writing this post. It's a real shame they didn't bother consulting you before making the list on monsters for the book to cut down on the waste of space.

I am very surprised: they've made the flumph interesting.

This is going straight into my 4E game....

I want a flumph familiar.
