Major and Minor Tweaks To The Monsters of Dungeons & Dragons 5e

Based in the World of Legon.

This page will have monsters of Legon. Some will just be a slight change from the original, some will be a complete new realization of the monster and then there will be brand new ones. During gameplay and preparation I felt I should change a few things. Many times it had to do with magic because for the longest time it was banned on Legon, others to just make more sense of a typical trope. Then there are the original ones that spawn from my mind, or seeing something in a movie / TV Shows, and emerging from a new enemy. There are some that have a more detailed description, so look for links in their description.

Teeter Wind Orcs have a yellow / tan hue to them, differing them from the usual green-brown common orcs. These orcs never travel alone and have a great pack mentality. It is common to find them under a warlords command (paid thugs). A good majority of them now under the rule of the current Warlord in the Teeter Wind Plains by the name of Baalrooga.

Vampires or Splitjaws on Legon are not the “undead.” They have been infected with a virus that breaks down the blood in the body. Because of the breakdown, it allows the infected to be very strong, have disjointed joints including the jaw and legs. Their mouth and jaw can “lower” and fangs come out. When it bites a victim, it inhales the blood like a siphon into their blood stream. They have 2 forms, one that is near indistinguishable from a humanoid, and another that turns the body into a Vampire when in fight or flight / smell or sense blood.

ATTACKS / DEFENSE
Weapons (standard to hit with +4 damage), Slashing (with clawed hands when in form) 2x1d8+4, Bite 1d4 (per round) – Bite has possibility of paralysis (against CON) Ability to leap long distances, hard to trap or corner. A frenzy attack that takes a lot out of the Splitjaw. It takes a round to recover. But they get an addition +2 to hit and an additional 1d10 of damage.

Movement: 60 ft Challenge: 3

Environment: Arctic, Mountain

Half humanoid & half giant spider. They are extremely intelligent and insightful creatures. Spawn from a blackpatch (spell gone bad) they repopulate quickly, but due to their location a lot don’t survive the first 10 years of life. They have a sensitivity to heat, and will roll with disadvantage when in temperatures above 55 degrees. When in temperatures of 80 or more degrees, they roll / attack with a -3 for everything, and disadvantage to boot.

They are not as “evil” in nature as you might think, there ambitions lie with self preservation, territorial and gaining land for there own kind. Most live in the north eastern Legon right before the glaciers. The Snow Driders despise White Hill Giants & Animax followers. They are in continually war with them. Unless you piss a Drider off they will most likely only communicate with you in common tongue, and not attack. But choose your words carefully.

ATTACKS
Weapon attack ranging from a long sword, spears and the like. They do not use any smaller weapons like daggers and the such, due to their structure, it would be very difficult to use. If they do, they attack with disadvantage.

Sword – Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 7 (1d8 + 3) slashing damage, or 8 (1d10 + 3) slashing damage if used with two hands.

Their front tentacles can do piercing damage, +6 to hit, Hit: 7 (1d8 +3), many of their warriors are outfitted with enhancements on the front tentacles when going into battle, adding a 1d4+1 to any successful attack Hit: 1d8+3 & 1d4+1.

Long bows, crossbows. About half of the warriors will carry a ranged weapon. They will almost always be laced with poison. Ranged Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, range 150/600 ft., one target. Hit: 7 (1d8 + 3) piercing damage plus 4 (1d8) poison damage.
Firebrand

STR : 15 ( +2 )

DEX : 20* ( +5* )

CON : 10 ( 0 )

INT : 15 ( +2 )

WIS : 15 ( +2 )

CHA : 14 ( +2 )

Armor Class: 18 Hit Points: 80

Movement: 90 ft Challenge: 8

Environment: Any

Firebrand is a very rare humanoid that has been infected by a kindlekind. Firebrands in a fight or flight situation will “flame out” meaning the outside of their body will harden (resulting in a 18 ac) and in a coating of fire. Otherwise they are indistinguishable from any other humanoid except the hair. As their body breaks down, their hair will slowly turn red, the more red, the closer they are to death; their life expectancy is greatly reduced. After a flame out they will be extremely weak and must rest to regain their strength.

ATTACKS / DEFENSE
Their speed is unnatural, 2 attacks per round. They can “exert” a blast radius of fire causing 2d10 of damage who ever is in a 20 ft diameter. Grabbing hold of a victim causes 1d12 of damage + further fire damage at 1d6 per round until put out. When in flameout mode they are *roughly 3x as fast as a normal humanoid, their skin turns to a hard leather and can frenzy when really pushed causing 3d12 of damage in a 10 foot area. Once they frenzy, they will burnout and revert to normal.

Movement: 45 ft Challenge: 3 (600 xp)

Environment: Coastal, Forest, Grasslands, Hill

Owlbears have the bodies of bears with thick fur and feathers. Their heads were like those of owls, but with a serrated beak. Their claws are a deadly combination of Bear and Owl. These creatures in the plains like to nest during the night hours and prowl during the day. Their color, the loud wind from the teeter winds and the height of the wheat, weeds, floral makes them very hard to spot.

ATTACKS / DEFENSE
They are afforded dual attacks when in range; beak and one claw. +4 to hit on both. They have an initial attack “rush” that allows their AC to skyrocket to 18 for that round and a good chance at a knock down. Their screech can be disorientating, and a save on constitution to not lose a round. Beak 1d10+3 (+4 to hit), Claw 1d12+3 (+4 to hit)
Forest Kobolds

STR : 8 ( -2 )

DEX : 15 ( +2 )

Most of the Kobolds follow the chief Vruc Emberwound. They have a pack mentality and there will never be one less than 20. Forest Kobolds can be found through out the forest’s of the clan lands and no where else.

ATTACKS / DEFENSE
They will hide in the trees and shoot stones with their slingshots (1d4+2). Melee attacks are almost impossible in the pack and hidden. Bows, crossbows attack with the *kobolds AC at 18 (ONLY when hidden in the trees). If melee starts they will attack with a crude dagger (1d4+1)
Swamp Clicker

STR : 15 ( +2 )

DEX : 13 ( +1 )

CON : 15 ( +2 )

INT : 5 ( -2 )

WIS : 9 ( 0 )

CHA : 3 ( -5 )

Armor Class: 15 Hit Points: 42

Movement: 60 ft Challenge: 3

Environment: Coastal, Swamp

The Swamp Clicker looks much like a Praying Mantis, but more compact and lower to the ground. They have a hard shell for the body. The creature has two large claws that it attacks with, and 6 legs that power it giving it a 60ft movement. The clicking sound they make is a crude language. The creatures do not go far from their lair. They travel in a group of 3-5 and are always looking for food.
ATTACK / DEFENSE
The creature can cross his claws creating a shield. This will raise their AC +2. Multi-attack. The clicker makes two attacks: both with its claws. Claw.

Armor Class: 12 (skin) Hit Points: 245 (20d12+135)

Movement: 40 ft Challenge: 19 (22,000 xp)

Environment: All

Veil Fiends are the “undead” of the underearth. Most of them are humanoid size, and hard to control (they are usually created by man or lich or necromancer). There has only been one of Giant Veil Fiend before, so they are incredibly rare. They stand 20-24 feet in height, long and spindly with razor sharp hands and poison emanating from them.

ATTACK / DEFENSE
Multiattack. They can initial poison push (4d6 / if DC20 Con save), life power drain (1d4 per round within 5 feet), claws +12 (5d8+6), stomp +10 (6d8+6), poison push (Dc20 CON save 6d8+6 or 3d8+3 if save) and a reactionary attack when 20+ HP of damage is inflicted; scream(1d8, zero damage if DC20 Con save).

Vision shutter (-2 to hit) the creature can shutter making it difficult to zero in on it. Regeneration (+1d6 per round) as long as there is something within 5-10 feet of the creature, it will draw 1d6 HP from it to regenerate. (In a dungeon or such, it would fail, unless a party member or living creature is within range, outdoors it can draw the HP from grass, trees, bushes, etc.)
Ecru Wyvern

STR : 16 ( +3 )

DEX : 16 ( +3 )

CON : 16 ( +3 )

INT : 6 ( -2 )

WIS : 12 ( +1 )

CHA : 10 ( 0 )

Armor Class: 16 (Scales) Hit Points: 10d10+40 (101)

Movement: 30 ft / 120 ft (fly) Challenge: 6 (2,400 xp)

Environment: Desert, Grasslands, Hill, Mountains

Rare creatures that find a home in the vast Teeter Winds Plains, usually farther north, closer to the Thoraxian Mountains. They are tan in color and blend in with the wheat and weeds, very hard to see if it is flat on the ground. They have tight knit lairs and “family” and only finding one is uncommon.

Once a day it can bellow a dust cloud that is half poison, the other half paralyzing dust. The victim has to make 2 saves; one for DEX and avoiding the cloud all together,

Multiattack. The Wyvern makes two attacks: one with its bite and one with its stinger. While flying, it can use its claws in place of one other attack.

DEX : 12 ( +1 )

CON : 16 ( +3 )

INT : 15 ( +2 )

WIS : 10 ( 0 )

CHA : 12 ( +1 )

Armor Class: 18 Hit Points: 6d8+26 (56)

Movement: 30 ft Challenge: 3 (1,200 xp)

Environment: Any

An Odius is a spin on the Tiefling, where the “evil” blood that runs in their veins makes them, well evil. Most born to this affliction are either cast out, sent to a orphanages or sorts or worse yet; sold. They can be used as a PC, but limitations are used; they can only be evil, etc. Bottom line is the vast majority of them are brought into a faction and are used for nefarious purposes. They have dark vision up to 60ft. The sex of the creature is important. So some stats change between sexes.

Forest Hag

STR : 16 ( +3 )

DEX : 12 ( +1 )

CON : 18 ( +4 )

INT : 12 ( +1 )

Armor Class: 15 Hit Points: 65 (8d8+20)

Movement: 30 ft Challenge: 3 (700 xp)

Environment: Forest, Swamp

Illusory Appearance. The hag has the ability to disguise herself, with a unique ability drawn from the earth. Upon approaching the hag, she will appear as a beautiful human druid (CHA 15). Players must make a DC 13 Wisdom savings throw, or be charmed by the creature. Each round they must make that savings throw to maintain it, or remove it.

The changes wrought by this effect fail to hold up to physical inspection. For example, the hag could appear to have no claws, but someone touching her hand might feel the claws. Otherwise, a creature must take an action to visually inspect the illusion and succeed on a DC 16 Intelligence (Investigation) check to discern that the hag is disguised.

The charm spell is subtle but powerful, it will stop any PC from investigating, or attacking. Many times they will just follow the Hag to the lair where she and her Chokers will have their way with them. After 3 failed saves, they are charmed indefinitely. Other players can help the charmed character if they understand what is going on. If so roll the DC 13 Wisdom throw at an advantage.

Claws. Melee Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 10 (2d6 + 3) slashing damage.

Quarter Staff. +5 to hit, reach 15ft., one target. Hit: 6 (1d6+2) bludgeoning damage.

They seem to go over every angle and possibility before attacking. They are near impossible to sneak up on (enemy has to roll with disadvantage DC20). They can be domesticated and turnd into mounts.

CHA : 20 ( +5 )

Armor Class: 13 (tough skin + Dex) Hit Points: 55

Movement: 30 ft Challenge: 2

Environment: Coastal, Forest, Grasslands, Hill, Swamp

An Earth Siren is inherently a good creature that is reclusive and introverted. They like forests to live in primarily. Sometimes they inhabit Swamps and the like, but will clash with hags that seem to prefer those areas. Their reason for being is to nurture the nature around their home, and in some ways protecting it too. They will avoid contact with anyone at all costs, minus if they are cornered or if their home is being threatened.

They are humanoids, in looks and just about everything else; ranging from 5 1/2 tall to 7 ft tall, weighing no more than 100-120 lbs. Hair is usually a color that blends well in a forest environment. Rags and make shift clothing, only the slight thicker skin and dexterity adds to their armor class.

The Siren, with magic returned has the following spells available: At will: druidcraft, 3/day each: entangle, goodberry, 1/day each: barkskin, pass without trace, shillelagh

ATTACKS
It has a very powerful charm spell. It works on men almost exclusively, but it has been known to charm a female or two. (roll advantage on men, disadvantage on women). The creature will start to sing. To the intended target it is an amazing song and the voice hypnotic. To everyone else it is a screech / screaming sound. Target needs to make a WIS save of 14 to avoid the charm. Each round they can try and break it, but the advantage / disadvantage still remains.

The Earth Siren will start off battle with the cantrip spell shillelagh. See below for it’s effects.

They usually carry around a smaller club, it is spiked and has overgrown rose thorns on it. Melee Weapon Attack: +2 to hit (+6 to hit with shillelagh), reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 2 (1d4) bludgeoning damage, or 8 (1d8 + 4) bludgeoning damage with shillelagh.

They have a ear piercing scream attack. Targets must make a constitution save of 12, or receive 1d8+3 points of damage. If they make the save, the damage is reduced to half. A Earth Siren is limited to this every other turn. Once they scream, it takes a round for them to muster up enough power to yell again.

The Shed Dog is a wolf like creature that escaped the depths of Ardor (hell) and has lived in the plains of the underearth for decades now. Quicklings have dealt with them for decades and have been calling them “Shed Dogs.” They have adapted to their surroundings, skin and/or fur turning colors over generations to match more with fields, grass, plants, caves, etc.

The Shed Dog Mother is the leader of a pack, the most powerful. Their is an Alpha Scrum and just a Scrum in this beasts category.

It has a giant mouth, with razor sharp teeth and a powerful grip. The tail is fast, long and dangerous. Again, the thick rough leather skin that helps protect it (natural ac 12 +2 dex) also blends in well. It does have bony spikes all around the body that can do extra damage if a character gets to close or runs into it. Their eyes are that of the abyss, a black swirling style that has been adapted to their home – changed from the beaming red demonic eyes.

The oddities of the creature is the shortness of its legs. It helps keep them low to the ground, but reduces their speed. They also do not have much fur, in fact it is only at the lower portion of their paws. Some though have some around the head like a main, depends on the level of monster (Alpha Males, Shed Dog Mother).

Rage Attack
Once a battle she is able to rage, but can only do so after a large scale attack (more than 25hp damage for that round or the previous, or something major happens in battle). She will get 2 bite attacks and 2 sting attacks.

Multiattack. The Shed Dog Mother makes one Bite attack and one Tail Stinger attack.

Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 26 (4d10 + 4) piercing damage.

Tail Stinger. Melee Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, reach 15 ft., one creature. Hit: 13 (2d8 + 4) piercing damage, and the target must succeed on a DC 14 Constitution saving throw or become poisoned. While poisoned in this way, the target is also paralyzed. The target can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.

* Normal speed for this type of creature is upwards of 60 feet per round, but due to its shorter legs and smaller paws it can’t go that fast.

Environment: Underearth

Condition Immunities Blinded, Deafened, Poisoned. Senses Blindsight 120 ft. (blind beyond this radius), Passive Perception 12 | Proficiency Bonus +3

Corpses. When first encountered, there is only a small change in smell as they tend to keep that corralled. Otherwise the stench would drive away potential victims. It looks like a mound of dirt, with possible flowers or weeds on the top. In the underearth this is not unusual. It is very unusual to find one alone. These creatures mate and live together usually close to a “water” source, or a place with lose rich dirt (sometimes hard to find in the underearth).

Stench of Death. Each creature that starts the battle within 10 feet of the corpse has to make a save to roll at a disadvantage for their first attack. Once the creature is down in health and threatened enough it will emit a massive cloud of stench and dirt / debris. 30ft surrounding area must make a CON save of 16 or take full damage 6d8 (40hp). Making the save with reduce it by half (20hp).

Multiattack. The corpse flower makes three Tentacle attacks.

Tentacle. Melee Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 9 (2d6 + 2) bludgeoning damage plus 10 (3d6) poison damage.

Harvest the Dead; an opponent, unconscious, grappled or prone. The sludge mound digests one corpse in its body. This takes upwards of 2 rounds in which it can still attack, but only with one tentacle. Once finished it instantly regains 11 (2d10) hit points. Nothing of the digested corpse remains. Any equipment on the corpse is expelled from the mound in its space.

The creature when “killed” lays dormant for days at a time. When then it will reanimate, regroup and find a safe place to get back to full health. To truly kill this creature you must dismantle it and there is a good chance you are making a CON save with the stench.

Description
Cerburus Giant Younglings are selfish, dimwitted brutes that hunt and raid in constant search of food. Their skins are tan from lives spent beneath the sun, and their weapons are uprooted trees and rocks pulled from the earth.

Cerburus Giant Younglings are selfish, dimwitted brutes that hunt, forage, and raid in constant search of food. They blunder through hills and forests devouring what they can, bullying smaller creatures into feeding them. Their laziness and dullness would long ago have spelled their end if not for their formidable size and strength.

Primitive. Cerburus Giant Younglings dwell in hills and mountain valleys across the world, congregating in steadings built of rough timber or in clusters of well-defended mud-and-wattle huts. Their skins are tan from lives spent lumbering up and down the hilly slopes and dozing beneath the sun. Their weapons are uprooted trees and rocks pulled from the earth. The sweat of their bodies adds to the reek of the crude animal skins they wear, poorly stitched together with hair and leather thongs.

Bigger Means Better. In a Cerburus Giant Younglings world, humanoids and animals are easy prey that can be hunted with impunity. Creatures such as dragons and other giants are tough adversaries. Hill giants equate size with power.

Cerburus Giant Younglings don’t realize they follow an ordning. They know only that other giants are larger and stronger than they are, which means they are to be obeyed. A hill giant tribe’s chief is usually the tallest and fattest giant that can still move about. Only on rare occasion does a hill giant with more brains than bulk use its cunning to gain the favor of giants of higher status, cleverly subverting the social order.

Voracious Eaters. With nothing else to occupy them, Younglings giants eat as often as possible. A hill giant hunts and forages alone or with a dire wolf companion, so as to not have to share with other tribe members. The giant eats anything that isn’t obviously deadly, such as creatures known to be poisonous. Rotten meat is fair game, though, as are decaying plants and even mud.

Farmers fear and loathe hill giants. Where a predator such as an ankheg might burrow through fields and consume a cow or two before being driven off, a hill giant will consume a whole herd of cattle before moving on to sheep, goats, and chickens, then tearing into fruits, vegetables, and grain. If a farm family is at hand, the giant might snack on them too.

Stupid and Deadly. The Cerburus Giant Younglings’ ability to digest nearly anything has allowed them to survive for eons as savages, eating and breeding in the hills like animals. They have never needed to adapt and change, so their minds and emotions remain simple and undeveloped.

With no culture of their own, Cerburus Giant Younglings ape the traditions of creatures they manage to observe for a time before eating them. They don’t think about their own size and strength, however. Tribes of Younglings giants attempting to imitate elves have been known to topple entire forests by trying to live in trees. Others attempting to take over humanoid towns or villages get only as far as the doors and windows of a building, taking out its walls and roof as they attempt to enter.

In conversation, Cerburus Giant Younglings are blunt and direct, and they have little concept of deception. A hill giant might be fooled into running from another giant if a number of villagers cover themselves in blankets and stand on one another’s shoulders holding a giant-painted pumpkin head. Reasoning with the Younglings is futile, although clever creatures can sometimes encourage a giant to take actions that benefit them.

Raging Bullies. A Cerburus Giant Younglings that feels as though it has been deceived, insulted, or made into a fool vents its terrible wrath on anything it encounters. Even after smashing those who offended it into pulp, the giant rampages until its rage abates, it notices something more interesting, or it grows hungry.

If a Cerburus Giant Younglings proclaims itself king over a territory where other humanoids live, it rules strictly by terror and tyranny. Its decisions shift with its mood, and if it forgets the title it bestowed upon itself, it might eat its subjects on a whim.

These creatures have been created by Varrow. They are “beings” endowed with empty souls, and pieced together with body parts of other humanoids. They are similar to a ghoul or a faster zombie. These creatures were meant to be an overwhelming force, a horde, that can continue to go after the opponent even if they fell.

If they are lead by a leader of sorts, if these stitchers fall in battle and still have the means to stand, they can be resurrected. But if they do it is at half the HP. The Overlock Stitchers will rise with 75% of their HP. The secret unknown Stitcher can be resurrected to 100% of it’s HP.

There are three versions of them.The common is what is here.

Overlock Stitchers which is an up grade. Larger, stronger and a few better skills. (STR: 18, DEX:12, AC:14, HP:38 CH: 1)

Environment: Grasslands

LORE
Creatures that have evolved over centuries are about 2 feet wide, 2 feet high and about 4 feet in length (not counting the tail). The tail is usually conveniently wrapped up and tucked away and will spring out when threatened. They do not feed on flesh, though in desperate times they would. They eat the roots of the Blackened Wheat Stalks, any bugs or grubs that have survived the blackening. With the wheat it is a symbiotic relationship that strengthens the wheat over time and feeds these monsters. They are very territorial and been known to attack each other’s hive, for lack of better terms, when they get too close to each other. They can live underground for weeks on end.

Multiattack. The scorpion makes three attacks: two with its claws and one with its sting.

Claw. Melee Weapon Attack: +4 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 6 (1d8 + 2) bludgeoning damage, and the target is grappled (escape DC 12). The scorpion has two claws, each of which can grapple only one target.

The first sting for the creature in any battle can be a devastating one. Hit: 7 (1d10 + 2) piercing damage, target must make a DC 10 or be paralyzed and take an additional 22 (4d10) of poison damage on failed save, or half on success. The victim must continue to make savings throws to get out of paralyzation and what is called the Sting Cocoon. dc 10, dc 12, dc 14 and the final one DC 16. If they miss all of those (4d10 damage per), the victim has all but transformed into a cocoon which the Terror Sting will take underground with them. Much more prevalent when there is only 1 or 2 victims where they would continue to sting it over and over again until it succumbs.

After first sting. Melee Weapon Attack: +4 to hit, reach 5 ft., one creature. Hit: 7 (1d10 + 2) piercing damage, and the target must make a DC 12 Constitution saving throw, taking 22 (4d10) poison damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.

Can burrow underground that takes 1 turn. Once the creature is burrowed it can not be attacked without investigation and luck.
