Dungeons & Dragons Adds New Monsters Based on Kids' Drawings

By Christian Hoffer

Dungeons & Dragons has released statblocks for several new monsters, all of which are based off of drawings made by kids who were treated at the Seattle Children's Hospital. Today, D&D Beyond released "Misplaced Monsters: Volume 1," a new online supplement containing six new monster statblocks made for Dungeons & Dragons 5E. The new monsters are unique in that they were all based off of drawings made by kids from the Seattle Children's Hospital, all of which are featured in the supplement, with abilities and attacks based off of the descriptions presumably provided by the kids. 

Creatures featured in the supplement include Coral, a half-horse/half-fish fey creature that can produce bubbles of whimsy with various effects, the gardening proficient Dandylions, and the cat-like creature Rain, who transforms evil creatures into clumps of flowers. There's also the automaton-like Scrapper and two dragons – a shapeshifting dragon named Seth and a "blueberry dragon" named Sheldon that lives in Wildspace and has a bag of blueberries that it can fling at opponents.
