We received this response: "The day I start writingfrivolous disclaimersfor game manuals is the day I retirefrom wizardry and abandon all self-respect." Mordenkainen's rival wizard Tasha apparently intercepted our request and sent us this note: "Mordenkainen lost his sense ofhumor somewhere between the City ofGreyhawk and the Astral Plane. Keep your chins up, my dearest ones. The multiverse isfiled with horrors, many ofwhich are detailed in this book. Marshal your laughter and afew good spells. Ifwe’re going to be devoured, better toface the darkness with a smile."

Zuggtmoy..............................................282 Appendix: Monster Lists...................283 U@ AB C TD A@ BE E F The multiverse of DG B C H E B @ & DJ K C E B @ brims with peril, and many of the greatest dangers are monsters. A companion to the Monster Manual, this book collects monsters from many different planes of existence, each creature ready to imperil D&D heroes of different levels. The book also includes game statistics for nonplayer characters, who may assist or oppose the heroes, and an array of fantastical races for players to consider for their characters. The monsters and fantastical races in the following chapters are accompanied by the occasional comments of the mighty wizard Mordenkainen, one of the most learned mages of the D&D world of Greyhawk. The archmage Tasha, Mordenkainen’s friendly rival, interjects as well. All together, the monsters, nonplayer characters, and fantastical races herein provide a host of new friends and foes to populate your D&D worlds. WD K N YE G ’O O FAB P WAN D AB Chapter 1, “Fantastical Races,” presents over 30 race options for player characters, complementing the options in the Player’s Handbook and other D&D books. These races debuted elsewhere and appear all together for the first time here, each of them revised to fit into the current state of the game. Chapter 2, “Bestiary,” contains over 250 monsters and NPCs, each one represented by a stat block and story text. When you’re preparing to run an adventure as the DM, consider sprinkling these creatures into your games, mixing them with the monsters and NPCs from the Monster Manual. The creatures in this chapter fit seamlessly with the ones you use from other D&D books. Appendix, “Monster Lists,” makes it easy for you to find the right stat blocks for your adventures. This appendix lists the book’s monsters and NPCs by creature type, challenge rating, and environment. 4 USING THIS BOOK

Fairy The Feywild is home to many fantastic peoples, including fairies. Fairies are a wee folk, but not nearly as much so as their pixie and sprite friends. The first fairies spoke Elvish, Goblin, or Sylvan, and encounters with human visitors prompted many of them to learn Common as well. Infused with the magic of the Feywild, most fairies look like Small elves with insectile wings, but each fairy has a special physical characteristic that sets the fairy apart. For your fairy, roll on the Fey Characteristics table or choose an option from it. You’re also free to come up with your own characteristic if none of the suggestions below fit your character. Fey Char act er ist ics d8 Characteristic 1 Your wings are like those of a bird. 2 You have shimmering, multicolored skin. 3 You have exceptionally large ears. 4 A glittering mist constantly surrounds you. 5 You have a small spectral horn on your forehead, like a little unicorn horn. 6 Your legs are insectile. 7 You smell like fresh brownies. 8 A noticeable, harmless chill surrounds you. F$ %& ' T& $ %( ) As a fairy, you have the following racial traits. Creature Type. You are a Fey. Size. You are Small. Speed. Your walking speed is 30 feet. FairyMagic. You know the druidcraft cantrip. Starting at 3rd level, you can cast the faerie fire spell with this trait. Starting at 5th level, you can also cast the enlarge/reduce spell with this trait. Once you cast faerie fire or enlarge/reduce with this trait, you can’t cast that spell with it again until you finish a long rest. You can also cast either of those spells using any spell slots you have of the appropriate level. Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma is your spellcasting ability for these spells when you cast them with this trait (choose when you select this race). Flight. Because of your wings, you have a flying speed equal to your walking speed. You can’t use this flying speed if you’re wearing medium or heavy armor. 14 CHAPTER 1 | FANTASTICAL RACES

In that timeless, silvery realm, githyanki honed their psionic powers and built a great city called Tu’narath. They have since spread throughout the multiverse, starting in outposts outside the Astral Plane, called creches, where time passes and their children can reach adulthood. A lanky people with skin tones of yellows, greens, and browns, githyanki complement their physical prowess with psionic might, instilled in them by mind flayers and cultivated over eons in the Astral Plane. Now all githyanki can use their psychic bond with that plane to access splinters of knowledge left behind by beings who travel, live, and die among the silver astral clouds. Githyanki who reside in the Astral Plane can live indefinitely. G#$ % & ' ( ) # T* ' #$ + As a githyanki, you have the following racial traits. Creature Type. You are a Humanoid. Size.

El ves o f a ny Rea l ms Created by the god Corelion, the first elves were Fey beings who cavorted on various planes of existence, changing their physical forms at will. Outside the glory ofArvandor, their favorite place was the Feywild—a realm of unbridled passion. It was to that place of splendors that elves fled after they were exiled from Corellon’s presence for plotting with their god’s rival, Lolth. And it was there that they transformed from Fey creatures into Humanoids and lost their ability to shape-shift at will. Afterward, they often wept as they realized what they had lost, their sorrow made even deeper by the Feywild’s influence. But in the Feywild, they also discovered the potential joys of being people of fixed forms, and they rediscovered hope once they renounced Lolth’s treachery. Most elves eventually spread from the Feywild to other worlds, as wanderlust and curiosity drove them to the far reaches ofthe multiverse. In those other worlds, elves developed the physical forms now associated with them. Because oftheir original mutable nature, each group ofelves mystically took on characteristics ofthe environment with which they bonded, whether forests (wood elves), fey crossings in the Material Plane (high elves), the Underdark (drow), the Shadowfell (shadar-kai), the Feywild (eladrin), or oceans (sea elves). In some places, Corellon has passed from elves’ memory, but the god’s blood flows within them still, even ifthey know nothing of its source. That blood is what causes them to evolve after spending centuries connected to a particular environment, so it is only a matter oftime before other kinds of elves emerge. Darkvision.

Tortles have saying: “We wear our homes on our backs.” These turtle folk live on many worlds, most often journeying up and down coasts, along waterways, and across the sea. Tortles don t have unified story of how they were created, but they all have sense of being mystically connected to the natural world. Carrying their shelter on their backs gives tortles special feeling of security wherever they go, for even if they visit far, unknown country, they have place to lay their heads. Tortles exhibit the same range of coloration and patterns found among turtles, and many tortles enjoy adorning their shells in distinctive ways. # $ % & ' $ ( )% * As tortle, you have the following racial traits. Creature Type. You are Humanoid. Size. You are Medium or Small. You choose the size when you select this race. Speed. Your walking speed is 30 feet. Claws.

When you hit with them, the strike deals ld6 + your Strength modifier slashing damage, instead of the bludgeoning damage normal for an unarmed strike. HoldBreath.

You can withdraw into your shell as an action. Until you emerge, you gain +4 bonus to your AC, and you have advantage on Strength and Constitution saving throws. While in your shell, you are prone, your speed is 0 and can t increase, you have disadvantage on Dexterity saving throws, you can t take reactions, and the only action you can take is bonus action to emerge from your shell. 34 CHAPTER 1 | FANTASTICAL RACES

Bl u e Abish a i Seekers of forgotten lore and lost relics, blue abishais are the most cunning and learned of their kind. Their research into occult subjects gleaned from tomes plundered from across the multiverse enables them to become accomplished spellcasters. They use their magic to devastate Tiamat’s enemies. Gr e e n Abish a i Green abishais are adept at discovering secrets and other sensitive information, while their diplomatic skills and their magic ensure they can manipulate even the shrewdest opponents. Re d Abish a i Red abishais have no equals among the abishais when it comes to leadership ability and raw power. Red abishais lead other devils into battle or take charge of troublesome cults to ensure that they continue to carry out Tiamat’s commands. A red abishai cuts a fearsome figure, and that sight can be inspiring to the abishai’s allies, filling them with a fanatical willingness to fight. Wh it e Abish a i White abishais fight with a reckless fury, making them ideally suited for bolstering the ranks of Tiamat’s armies.
