      That little old Blood Dryad could use a couple of these.

      I was just thinking about giving space clowns from spelljammer lair actions, I imagine their spelljammer being small on the outside, but on the inside its a killer fun house from hell.

    As man that’s such a cool concept, I’ve always thought lairs and legendary actions were really underutilized especially at low levels, my favorite monster is actually the Merrenoloth because it gets it’s cool boat abilities.

      Absolutely!! Completely agree. Heck, do we even need monsters to have lair Actions? Lol

      I don’t think we do, in Guil masters guide to ravnica there’s the rakdos carnival than can be set up by pretty much any 6 humanoids as long as they’re in the rakdos guild

    I have this book. It turns kobolds into tucker’s kobolds and I love it.

    This is incredible content. A quick explanation of "why?", and then examples of how, while encouraging a creative mindset shift by not being handcuffed to the stat block in the rules. Great job, and thank you!

    My DMs don't use Lair actions at all. This makes me sad. Maybe I should slip a copy of this book on their dms. just a little nudge. Thanks!
    Also check your timestamps and chapters.

      Oh wow, nice catch! Don't know how I messed that up so bad lol.
      But that is weird that they don't! I honestly have never heard that. Did they give a reason?

    Wait, are you the power rangers?
    Also, I love modifying monsters on the fly if they end up not being challenging enough. I tend to throw in lair effects and legendary actions as a boss second phase like a video game.

    • @TheClericCorner
      @TheClericCorner  Před 2 lety +1

      Oh absolutely! And last minute changes on the fly as you feel are needed, definitely improve the game as you play it!
      And those are returning characters from other vids. But they definitely look like power rangers now that you mention it 😂

    tbf, there are at least 3 "officially" acceptable pronunciations of "Catoblepas" so whatever...
    And to the point about character lair actions, there's a series of movies about Hanzo the Razor, whose house is set up with enough traps and snares for him to stand a full-on assault by a small army, which frequently happens. It's very inventive and fun to watch, tho some parts of the movies are a bit ridiculous.
