MONSTROUS
Additionally, each type of monster has a workbook page that Game Managers can use to design their own versions of these flavorful monsters for their homebrew games. Each monster Core in MONSTROUS features a series of inspiration tables which you can use to put some extra mustard on your monsters while you're cooking them up or when you're roleplaying them at the table. SUCCESSFULLY FUNDED ON KICKSTARTER! Designed and drawn by hardcore monster enthusiasts, MONSTROUS is a system-agnostic tool, the Game Manager’s go-to reference for telling better stories through monsters.
