I just went looking to see if the new D&D books had updated the monster creation rules, only to discover they had entirely removed them. Their only advice is to reskin the monsters they provide. It's sad to see how short-sighted the devs have become. #dnd5e #ttrpg

MM:S Update 2: I decided to make 4 skeletons per tier, for a grand total of 28. Combined with my notes on creating them & a small 5-room-style dungeon I'm shooting for 8-10 pages per tier. Each tier has a theme: Scary, Bestial, Crushed, Fossilized, Primal, Bejeweled, & Grim. #dnd #dnd5e #ttrpg

Monster Methodology: Skeletons is going to be a document that outlines my process for building engaging & consistent monsters for Dungeons & Dragons 5E. It will feature 7 mini-dungeons full of unique skeletons for every level of play, culminating in the servants of The Reaper itself! #dnd5e #ttrpg

Project Update 1: I've decided on "Monster Methodology: Skeletons" as the working title for my project. I've researched publishing on both DriveThru RPG & DMs Guild (gonna go ahead with DriveThru). And I have decided to base my efforts on a 7-tier leveling system. #dnd #dnd5e #ttrpg

Sometime between 3/14/25 & 4/25/25, I will have the raw creative work done for my Skeleton Monster Pack project. The stat blocks will be filled out, the maps will be drawn, & the text will be typed. #onegoal #growinggills
