Now all I can think of is doing a 4E update of the Asswere.


Make it an elite monster, pair it with a wereass and you've got an entry!

That's wrong on so many levels...

Sorceror: "I'll attack the [solo monster] with Chaos Bolt."
Warden: "Don't you ever use encounter powers?!?!?"
Sorceror: (casually) "I don't need to."

You could, were you so inclined, have a divine caster called a Wiseass and a Martial brute called a Dumbass. Both being variants of the wereass.

Thanks for the answers. There goes my demagorgon ideas lol

gonna go for something more sinister i think... maybe new mycanoids which have formed a symbiotic relationship with man eating shoes and thus dwell inside said foot-eating boots and then replace the human's feet with mushrooms... or is that too much of a link to the list of stupidest dungeons and dragons monsters... i can't tell...
I live and work in Japan, near Mt. Fuji, teaching English to High Schoolers.  In my spare time I also happen to be a husband, a father, and an Otaku.  I run a biweekly DnD game on Sundays and blog about it every other day of the week at http://thedumpstat.blogspot.com

Sadly, I don't think this has anything to do with wanting Next to be a great game.
It has to do with wanting Next to determine who won the Edition War.

For those of us who just want D&D Next to be a good game, this is getting to be a real drag.

I think I figured it out.  This program is a character builder, not a character builder.  It teaches patience, empathy, and tolerance.  All most excellent character traits.

The creatures would suffer damage or a deleterious condition if they touched one another.


Can we alter this requirement to include the creatures suffering a deleterious (great word!) condition if they move outside of a certain radius of each other?

Hmm, making monsters hasn't really been my strong suit in the past...this should be a helpful competition. Guess I'll enter. I probably won't try anything too creative that I can't pull off, but I've got a vague idea.

Deleterious is a great word indeed.
It isn't evil, it isn't good, it's only what the people miss.
