Monster Lairs Poll 1
🕑 Added 2021-05-05 02:42:30 +0000 UTCHey all!
As I'm about to dive into some intense book writing with Omeria (well, more of collecting what's already there and cobbling it together in a nifty way), I thought I might knock out the rest of my content for the month by filling it with more monster lairs.
I figured the best way to go about doing monster lairs would be to go alphabetical by SRD monsters. Then, as you vote on one, I remove it and then add in the next option in alphabetical order. And then we continue to do this until the whole book is done.
Because certain creatures aren't SRD—meaning, I can't write for them even if I wanted to—I might retheme them or put in Kobold Press versions. For example, I can't use aarakocra, but I can create "birdfolk." And so on.
Without any further ado, let's begin with the A's!
Note: This is a short poll since I'm about done with the archmage lair y'all picked last time. Kobolds should hit by end of the week.

Yeah, in bed at 7:30 pm EST up at 4:30 am, work from 5:30 - 6:30 pm. Repeat. Survey goes up after I’m asleep, usually finishes before I’m in bed checking emails.

I dunno, dude. You got some bad luck! Haha

Seriously!!? Are these posted only after I go to sleep and end when I finally get off work! Ankegs.

Animated objects could easily be a mimic colony but with reskin animated objects. It be interesting to have the who location as your enemy and not just the monster

Sea monster would be cool

I think Sea Monsters are often lacking. I know it's because lots of DMs and players shy away from water based adventures but they can be so much fun.

I generally think content for the "Higher Realms" or the plane of the birdfolk and/celestials are not available throughout the work of many artists.
DM Dave
Already did that today with the arch mage one
I have been mulling an idea for a Frost Giant Jarl who wants to build an ankheg farm for his children to play with. He could hire a party to capture and transport a herd of ankhegs to his realm. It could be a kind of cattle drive scenario. Please feel free to take this idea and run with it!
I am amused. Dave gets to turn his dislike of the Animate Objects spell into a foe the players battle against. Justice.
