Creature Codex

Currently, this “codex” only completely covers the Monster Manual; entries from other sources will creep in as time permits. If an entry is part of another monster entry with a different name, that is given in parentheses after the entry. If it is a creature with a template applied, that template is a parentheses after the entry and hyperlinked to the template.

See About Creature Statistics for how to interpret each creature’s description.

Creatures marked by a T superscript are actually creature templates, which are applied to other creatures.

In this codex, the ⬆️ icon returns to the light cyan index line of letters below. In a creature’s description, this same icon is a hyperlink back to its statistics block. Likewise, a ⬇️ icon in a statistics block is a hyperlink to a creature’s description. These are mainly used where creatures may share a statistics block but not descriptions.
