Want to get some more monsters into your D&D games? Maybe something a little different than the usual? Mutated Monsters is here to help. It’s not just a manual of monsters, but also a deck of mutation cards that you can easily put onto other monsters to swap out their abilities some and keep your players on their toes. The project is up on Kickstarter now.
From the campaign:
Our compendium of Mutated Monsters is filled with brand new creatures and unique mutant versions of existing monsters that have new and powerful abilities. They are designed to be dropped into any 5e world or setting. We’ve designed our creatures with exquisite detail, to make the mutated monsters feel impactful and fascinating for your players. The creature descriptions contain:
- Unique Combat Tactics. In every monster description you’ll find descriptive and detailed tactics for how the monster interacts with the world and uses its abilities to defend itself.
- Monster-specific Magic Items or Loot. Many creatures feature loot that is thematically tied to the defeated enemy. Giving your players a reminder of their accomplishments and extra incentive to keep adventuring.
- Narrative Description. Flavor text to help GMs to easily describe the creature to their players, setting the scene for tense, engaging encounters.
And More. The book also contains new subclasses for the Cleric, Fighter, Rogue and Warlock, detailed monster lairs, with interesting environmental effects and areas for monsters to inhabit, a unique pantheon of gods dedicated to mutation and evolution, new NPCs to populate your world, including the mad alchemist, creator of the amalgam chimera, and 100 adventure hooks to send your party on adventures seeking out fascinating mutated monsters.
The campaign’s headed to 2x funded with 29 days to go.
