Hello, fellow nerds:
What are some neat monsters or creatures I could use for a new campaign I’m running in 2025. The gist is that one of the four sons of the Vyshaantar Empire has gathered strength, occupied a castle in the Misty Forest, and is looking to take over the entirety of the territory and spearhead a resurgence of the Vyshaantar Empire. (Or, to put it even more succinctly: Nazi Elves.)
I’ve got a few Vyshaantar enemies built out, like a Vyshaantar Sniper, Elven War Golem, Corrupted Treant, and Pyromancer.
What are some others that are different but would fit this kind of campaign?
Fey creatures in general. High level fey are where things start to get tricky though. Pixies that are police for instance, obsessed with checking peoples’ papers. Or how about gnomish pacifists. Hags are also fey, so an easy addition, I’d perhaps go with them as the potential allies - they are usually unaligned and wouldn’t want to side with elves or a kingdom
Oh man, a Nazi pencil-pushing pixie sounds like great fun.
