Hello fellow gamers, Nerdarchist Ted here. Today I want to talk about the 5th edition Monster Manual for D&D. I have been playing Dungeons and Dragons since second edition. There have been many changes in style layout and information contained in each edition of the Dungeons and Dragons Monster Manual.The art styles of each edition is going to of course change as the style and abilities of art change with the times.
The rules for each type of monster will of course have to change to take into account the actual flow and dynamics of the new rules.The part of the book that can automatically be able to flow from one edition to the next would be things like behavior, ecology and religious and organizational behaviors.Pulling out the old Second Edition Dungeons and Dragons Monster Manual you see far more in depth entries for each monster. Some feel that extra material was created or written just to fill the pages.Third and Fourth progressively left this type of extra material out when they wrote the Monster manual. By Fourth if it was not combat related it was not necessary in the book.With Fifth Edition Dungeons and Dragons bringing the best of all previous editions into one ‘super?”‘ edition, the Monster Manual has brought back all that wonderful information.We get specific write ups of monstrous deities, not statted out or anything, that would be crazy for Monster Manual I. But we do get information to make them more useful in a game or campaign. We get to revel in the social structure of all giantkind. And let us not over look the obvious fact that we get over 350 pages jam packed with monsters. In previous editions we would be inundated with loads of variants of the same monster over and over again.
Here it is just the opposite. Many creatures get a single listing and we are asked to make do with it.As a lover of Third Edition Dungeons and Dragons I loved the concept of templates and getting to alter things to fit my design or flavor. Here is where the Monster Manual lacks. There are only 4 templates in the whole book and three of them relate to Dragons. You get Half-Dragon, Shadow Dragon, Draco-Lich and Myconid Spore Servant.Now I am not saying that I need to have more as many things can be extrapolated from the entries that are there. Compare a commoner to a skeleton or zombie and it is easy enough to make a skeletal or Zombie creature.
I have a few fun things that I want to create to hopefully terrify the players.But when you have the legit template right out of the book no one can call you to task for a misinterpretation. So that is why I prefer the template.I will say the most note-worthy parts of the book is the little blips and blurbs that seem to come from journal entries and books and such. They add so much extra enjoyment and flavor to the book. I also love the Variant flare that appears here and there. Especially the troll.The troll has options for dismemberment, like they had in previous editions, as well as there is a single sentence that says they can have special abilities if they have been feasting on a diet of creatures that had a special ability.

So if a troll starts eating loads of fey creatures you can give it spell like abilities. I think that will be fun to use.So over all you get loads of monsters full of options, variant rules and plenty of source material that can inspire sessions or even full campaigns. I loved reading the D&D Fifth Edition Monster Manual.I am sure you will as well.This is Nerdarchist Ted saying thanks for reading and until next time Stay Nerdy My friend!Help support Nerdarchy by getting your Related articles.
