Ewoska | New Monster for Fifth Edition

Sailing through the skies of The Summer Land and parts of Central Omeria are the red-eyed ewoskas, large, intelligent falcon-like birds whose shrill shriek can shrink creatures down to transportable (and edible) sizes. Ewoskas are leftovers from the Transmuter Wars of the Hand of the Two. The great birds were tasked to fly over battlefields […]

Giant Wolf | New Monster for Fifth Edition (366 Days of Monsters)

Giant wolves are to dire wolves what dire wolves are to regular forest wolves. Measuring nearly 30 feet in length, these colossal lupines are the genuine kings and queens of the forest. As a “divine figure”, they are looked up to by their smaller kin. Giant wolf packs include dozens of smaller wolves, dire wolves, […]

Flying Spider | New Monster for Fifth Edition (366 Days of Monsters)

Flying spiders, like their cousins, the giant wolf spider, are intelligent, pony-sized arachnids that hunt in the dark. Whereas wolf spiders prefer caverns and underground places to find their prey, flying spiders take to the outside world on mountainsides and dark forests. A stealthy predator, flying spiders prefer to fly by and grab their targets […]

Krigs and Red-Striped Thornfoots | New Monsters for Fifth Edition

Krig Krigs are spider-humanoids that originate from the Weysevain Maze and, by extension, the town of Orbea in Central Omeria. Intelligent and clever, thanks mostly to their connection to their diety-progenitor Matriarch and all other krig, they quickly positioned themselves as assets throughout most of the continent. Their overall numbers are much lower than the […]

Tiny Terrors | 5 New Monsters for Fifth Edition

Tiny creatures don’t get a whole lot of love in Fifth Edition. Recently, I revamped a classic Dungeon magazine module, Mountain Sanctuary. The antagonists of the adventure were primarily diminutive creatures that appeared in the first edition fiend folio and Monsters Manual 2: cave crickets, osquips, gremlins, and spectramice. I felt that it was time […]

In the broken crags and tiny caves of the barrens live the timid baazrag. Two feet long or less, it is one of the smallest omnivores in the stoney barren regions. The baazrag’s face is protected by a bony covering that reaches down either side of the head and across the nose, with holes for […]

Megapede | New Monster for Fifth Edition

They have a very long (100 to 150 feet), segmented body which sports a pair of legs nearly every two feet. These legs are five feet in length and have flexible claws at […]

Dark Sun Bestiary (Part 6: Monsters of the Verdant Belt 2/4) | New Monsters for Fifth Edition

The Dark Sun bestiary conversion continues. Currently, I’m working through the MC12: The Dark Sun Monstrous Compendium – Terrors of the Desert. Specifically, I’m dividing the creatures up by the random encounter tables. First, are the monsters of the verdant belts. Verdant Belts Athas is an arid world, but it is not entirely waterless. In […]
