Bedtime Bestiary
This is a game about a child's toys overcoming the terrible creatures of that child’s imagination. The protagonists of the story are a collection of children's toys who face danger together. The story should fit the imagination of a young child. The violence should not be graphic. All but the final encounter should be easy.   This game provides some alternate rules for character creation and story development, but otherwise uses the rule systems present in the 5th edition of the world’s most popular roleplaying game.  A sample adventure and 4 new creatures are included.
