The Lazy DM's Forge of Foes: Tools and Guides to Build, Customize, and Run Fantastic Monsters in Your 5e Fantasy Games Audible Audiobook – Unabridged

We all love monsters. We love them because they exist outside of our world and yet feel real to us. We love how strange they can be. We love the sense of danger that arises when we talk about them. We love how they live in our imaginations.And when monsters come to life in our imaginations, we love to face and defeat them. We battle dragons and demons and undead—and conquer them in tales we’ll remember our whole lives.Within the Forge of Foes, we’ll build these monsters. Here in the forge, we’ll modify creatures, giving them new attacks and strange new abilities. We’ll harden their scales and sharpen their claws. We’ll create entirely new creatures from our endless collective imagination, then watch them crawl into the stories of high adventure we share with our friends.Forge of Foes covers a wide variety of monster-focused material. You'll find discussions ranging from game mechanics to the philosophy of monster design, to the fine art of reskinning monsters, to the all-important relationship between monsters and story, to managing the complexities of challenge rating when building exciting encounters.PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.
