The “Battlezoo Bestiary: Elemental Storm” campaign is set to bring a substantial addition to the worlds of Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition and Pathfinder 2e with over 170 elemental monsters, new spells, and enhanced gameplay rules. This new bestiary adds innovative monster crafting and hunting rules, enriching the role-playing experience.
The monsters featured in the bestiary originate from a community-driven contest where designers submitted their creations for public and professional review. The selected monsters, which won awards for their innovative design, are now included in the bestiary, providing players with new challenges and encounters.
The bestiary introduces monster hunter rules that allow players to adopt new combat abilities. These rules enable players to engage with the game’s challenges in diverse ways, from targeting specific monster parts to utilizing monsters’ own abilities against them.
Additionally, “Elemental Storm” expands the magical landscape with new elemental spells that offer creative and unique ways to engage in combat. These spells are designed to integrate seamlessly with the existing magic systems of 5E and Pathfinder, providing both players and monsters with new abilities that enhance gameplay.
The campaign also offers animated tokens compatible with various virtual tabletop systems, custom maps tailored to the new monsters, and a limited-edition hardcover version of the bestiary.
As of now, the Kickstarter campaign has raised $60,462 from 671 backers, surpassing its original goal of $10,000. With 35 days left until the campaign ends on October 9, there is still an opportunity for interested backers to participate and gain access to early backer rewards.
