Episode #21: Who Goes There?! Urban Encounters!

Show Notes

This week, Fiona and Hamilton pick their top 3 monsters to create urban encounters in order to add depth and flavour to any city or township setting!

Monsters discussed:

  • Shadows and Shadow Assassin - Undead that resemble dark exaggerations of humanoid shadows (Monster Manual p269/Waterdeep: Dungeon of the Mad Mage p316).
  • Gray Ooze - An ooze which is stone turned to liquid by chaos (Monster Manual p243).
  • Stone Golem - Magical constructs cut and chiseled from stone to appear as tall, impressive statues (Monster Manual p170).
  • Oni - Demonic ogres with blue or green skin, dark hair, and a pair of short ivory horns protruding from their foreheads (Monster Manual p239).
  • Arcanaloth -  Sly, jackal-headed beings with humanoid bodies, but they can employ magic to take any humanoid form (Monster Manual p313).
  • Rakshasa - cunning, spell-casting fiends who look like humanoids with the face of a tiger (Monster Manual p257).

Book: 'Monster Manual' published by Wizards of the Coast in September 2014.
