Episode description

Show Notes

This week, Fiona and guest co-host John have a general chat about D&D monster manuals and reasons why we might not want to use them for our RPG encounters. We also briefly look at the 'Creatures: Complete Monster Compendium for 5E' from the designers of Shadows of Esteren and Fateforge, a fantasy bestiary that takes a different look at how to portray creatures and nemesis in campaigns. 

Book discussed: 'Creatures: Complete Monster Compendium for 5E' by Studio Agate.
