Today's Monstrous Monday is a special one, the return of my erstwhile series "Monstrous Maleficarum." In this new and revised version for "5th Era Fantasy RPGs" I am featuring the return of the Orc as a monster you can have as an antagonist.
Just in time for tomorrow's new Monster Manual release.
Volume #2 of Monstrous Maleficarum - Return of the Orcs
Orcs have been a staple of FRPGs since the dawn of the hobby. These creatures are as iconic as they are ubiquitous.
With Monstrous Maleficarum #2 I present the return of the orcs to the latest edition of the World’s Greatest Roleplaying Game. Orcs for the new 5th Era.
Herein, you will find the classic Pig-nosed orc, the mighty green and gray orcs, the blood-thirsty Blood Orcs, the violent Ghost-Face orcs, the noble and good Desert Orcs who call elves “brother,” and the intelligent and equally dangerous High Orcs.
What is Monstrous Maleficarum?
Monstrous Maleficarum is a series of smaller publications to feature new monsters for the 5th Edition of the World's Greatest Role-Playing game. Sometimes these monsters are from previous editions, brought into the new era via the Open Gaming License. Sometimes they are new takes on classic creatures of myth and legend. And other times they will be brand new creatures.
Each “issue” will feature a theme of related monsters.
Every issue will feature 100% Open Gaming Content text.
I will have more to say on Orcs and other "missing monsters" as time goes on.
