Creating Monsters

The following things need to be included when creating your own monsters:

Creature Block Format:

• Name
• Description
• Power Tier
• Ability Scores
• Base HP
• Armor
• Weapons
• Combat tactics

Tips:

1. The description should include the appearance and/or what the creature symbolizes.
2. Calculate the base HP the same was as a player character, use the ability score, power tier and give the monster a HP modifier (see reference table below).
3. If the weapons are unconventional, give them the closest size, damage type and armor penetration.
4. Combat tactics include how the creature fights, its strengths, weaknesses, and any unique features that distinguish it from the ordinary.
