[QUOTE="oreofox, post: 7490731, member: 6776240"] All of them. Well, the vast majority anyway. Going through old monster books, adventures, and such of previous editions (including Pathfinder), I get some ideas pop into my head of how to include them in my world. I have been attempting to do such myself, though very slowly, and in bite sizes. I started up a conversion of various plant creatures from previous editions, and trying to incorporate the different capabilities of the various iterations into a single creature. Like one of them, can't remember the name of the monster, but it appeared in 2nd, 3rd, and Pathfinder. So, I look at each of them and try to convert a conglomeration of all 3 versions into a single one for 5th Edition. I also have plans of doing the same for oozes, elementals, and constructs (4 of my favorite creature types), though I have to work up the motivation and desire to continue with the plants. So far, it's at 8 pages of two columns per page, with a total of... (counts what he's done so far) 13 plant creatures. I last worked on that back on May 7th 2018. I also have a document with all the monsters and their older stat blocks that I want to convert, and including the 13 monsters I already did, it has 112 pages (2 columns), but this includes all the various statblocks from those 3 editions I listed above. Maybe one day I will get it done, before 6th edition comes out. [/QUOTE]
