Scaler Combat Profiles
Listed below are some of the key differences between a
scaler profile and a conventional 5th Edition stat block.
1 Level, Rank, and Role
At the forefront of every scaler is a combat level, combat
rank, and combat role—use these descriptors to quickly
judge how to use a scaler in battle.
2 Ability Modifiers
Attack rolls and ability checks depend on ability
modifiers—find them at the very top of the stat block.
3 Defences
Armor class and saving throws are grouped together
into one quick-reference defensive line.
4 Health
Health attributes (HP, vulnerabilities, immunities, etc.)
are grouped together into one quick-reference health
line. If your scaler can be bloodied or enraged (p53), or
has a damage threshold, those values are also listed here.
5 Combat Stats
Three basic attack stats serve as a central reference
point when using attacks and actions:
• ATK: Add this to an ability modifier when you attack
a target's AC (d20 + ability modifier + ATK).
• DC: Add this to an ability modifier when you force a
target to make a saving throw (ability modifier + DC).
• DMG: This is the average amount of damage that can
be caused with a single, common action (don't add
ability modifiers to this value). If an action would
make several separate attacks, divide this damage
across each attack.
• Reach/Range: These are basic attack ranges.
6 Initiative
If your scaler has an initiative bonus, find it listed next
to your speeds. This bonus (if displayed) already includes
your DEX ability modifier.
7 Items
If your scaler is carrying any notable items (potions,
scrolls, spellbooks), equipment (weapons, armor,
trinkets), or treasure (coins, gems, art), it is listed here.
8 Trigger
Some scalers lie dormant until they are activated by a
triggering action or event.
9 Special Features
Special features are grouped together by their activation
cost: traits (passive features), free actions, bonus
actions, actions, and reactions.
Features come in one of three rarities of increasing
power—common (green), uncommon (yellow), and rare
(red)—and may be highlighted with melee or ranged
icons for easy reference. For more information on how
to build special features, see Making Features (p38).

Some scalers can be controlled or subdued in non-
traditional ways—disabling, baiting, persuading, etc.

COUNTERMEASURES
10  Sacrifice of Blood: If you are bloodied, an adjacent
creature may spend an action to sacrifice one hit die
and compel you to fall dormant (DC 6 Persuasion or
Intimidate). The creature must be able to speak in deep
speech.

Pick your Saving rows

Make a Monster
Once you have some inspiration, it's time to make a
monster! To turn your idea into a fully-featured combat
profile, follow the six steps below.
Your monster's starting template also specifies a
number of trained saving throws (TSTs): choose these
saving throws. Try to split these evenly between strong
and weak saving throw categories:
• Strong: Dexterity, Constitution, Wisdom.

Define your Combat Power • Weak: Strength, Intelligence, Charisma.

First, you must define your monster's combat power—
how dangerous is it in a fight? Choose a combat level, a
combat rank, and (optionally) a combat role.
Choose a Combat Level
A combat level (p8) describes how powerful a monster is
—the higher the level, the greater its starting stats (hit
points, damage, armor class, ability modifiers, etc.).
Combat levels work in the exact same way as
character levels, so consider choosing a level between 1-
20 that's suitable for the party's average character level.
Choose a Combat Rank
A combat rank (p10) describes how influential your
monster is on the battlefield—the higher the rank, the
bigger the danger it presents.
There are four basic ranks of increasing strength:
minions (p12), grunts (p11), elites (p13), and paragons
(p14). Choose one.
Choose a Combat Role (Optional)
A combat role (p15) specializes your monster's fighting
style with new features, skills, and stat adjustments.
There are six basic roles: controllers (p16), defenders
(p17), lurkers (p18), skirmishers (p19), strikers (p20), and
supporters (p21). Choose one.
Valiant, Clanda, and Chansi have been waylaid by some
bandits—a combat begins!
There are three player characters, and the average
party level is 5; the GM opts for three 5th level grunts to
provide a medium-challenge encounter.
To mix things up, the GM gives each bandit a
different combat role: one striker to deal damage, one
defender to soak up some hits, and one lurker to snipe
from a distance.
Choose a Reach and/or Range
Basic attack stats (attack bonus, DC bonus, and average
damage) are also included in the starting template.
Define a reach and/or range for these basic attacks
and actions. Note that specific features may override
these distances whenever appropriate.
Pick some Extras (Optional)
With the core attributes in place, it's time to choose
some extras. There are eight common categories to
consider: use these to flesh out your monster.
Try to keep in mind the overall combat power of the
monster—the lower the level (or the lower the rank), the
fewer extras your monster should need.
Extra Categories
• Speeds • Resistances
• Senses • Immunities
• Skills • Languages
• Vulnerabilities • Items
Create some Features
If you want to to give your monster some special tricks,
equip them with scaling features. There are three
different types of feature:
• Trait: A passive ability that's always on.
• Attack: An activated ability that tries to affect an
unwilling target.
• Utility: An activated ability that tries to affect a
willing target.
For some quick flavor, equip your monster with at
least one ancestral (racial) feature, one (if applicable)
combat role feature, and one attack action.

Get your Stats Be sure not to overcomplicate your monster—a

combat profile should be easy to read and easy to run.
Once you know your monster's combat power, use the Aim for the following:
Scaler Template tables (see p79) to get its starting stats.

Assign your Attributes Number of Features

Your monster's starting template include a set of six Combat Rank Features
recommended ability modifiers: two high, two mid, and Minion 1-5
two low. Assign these modifiers to your abilities (STR, Grunt 3-8
DEX, CON, INT, WIS, and CHA) in order of preference. Elite 5-11
If it doesn't make sense for the monster to have a Paragon 7-14
particular ability, either a) set the ability modifier to −5
or b) set the ability score to 0 (the monster For a full exploration of how to build scaling features
automatically fails ability checks/saving throws). and choose effects, see Making Features (p38).

MAKING MONSTERS PATREON.COM/GIFFYGLYPH

Combat Levels
T o overcome the enemy, you must first
understand the enemy: what are their strengths and
weaknesses, and just how much danger are you in?
Knowledge is power—but how do you describe danger in
simple terms? And how can you use ratings to set the
strength of your scalers?
This chapter introduces combat levels and their
gameplay purpose, how to use them, and how you can
integrate them with challenge ratings.
Choosing a Level
Scaling monsters use combat levels (i.e. character levels)
to set their core attributes (ability modifiers, hit points,
average damage, etc.)—the higher the level, the higher
these core attributes will be.
Your first step in creating a new scaling monster is
(typically) to choose their level, and there are three
common approaches:
A Target the Party: Build monsters to combat a specific
group of players based on the average party level.
B Target a Region: Build monsters to populate a
specific region base on the average region level.
C Target a Tier: Build monsters for a particular tier of
gameplay—adventurer, heroic, paragon, or epic.
Core vs. Extended Combat Features
Combat levels set core combat features—hit points,
attack bonuses, armor classes, saving throws, etc.
Once these core details are in place, you can add
extended combat features (if necessary) to flesh out
your creation—immunities, vulnerabilities, actions, etc.
PATREON.COM/GIFFYGLYPH
A Target the Party
If you want to combat a specific adventuring party,
target the average party level. You can create a weaker
monster by going below the average party level or a
stronger monster by going above it.
Use this approach when you want to build some
narrative content to scale alongside your players.
Party Combat Level
Challenge Combat Level
Weak Average Party Level - 3
Competent Average Party Level
Strong Average Party Level + 3
The GM wants to create a group of orc warlocks to fight
a 5th-level adventuring party. The orcs are intended to
be a competent threat, so the GM makes them 5th-level
to match the party.
Another GM wants to build a combat encounter for a
varied adventuring party—two 2nd-level characters and
three 4th-level characters. The average party level is 3,
so the GM uses 3rd-level scalers in the battle.
B Target a Region
If you want to populate a region (a dark dungeon, a
sinister forest, a cosmic plane, etc.), target the average
region level. You can create a weaker monster by going
below the average region level or a stronger monster by
going above it.
Use this approach when you want to build some
sandbox content with a fixed challenge for your world
(e.g. a hexcrawl or dungeoncrawl).

Combat Ranks
I t is said that authority creates power
and grants you more influence and notoriety on the
battlefield. But how exactly do you assign authority to a
monster, and how does it empower them?
This chapter introduces combat ranks and pre-made
templates to help you field an army of minions, grunts,
elites, and paragons.
Choosing a Rank
Ability Modifiers
Each rank comes with a recommended set of six ability
modifiers—two high modifiers, two mid modifiers, and
two low modifiers. Allocate these ability modifiers as
best fits your scaling monster.
If it wouldn't make sense for your monster to have a
particular ability, either a) set the relevant modifier to
−5 or b) set the ability score to 0 (you automatically fail
ability checks/saving throws).

A combat rank defines how threatening you are in battle,

adjusting attributes and granting access to special
features. There are four ranks you can choose from:
• Grunts are the rank-and-file members of any fighting
force—one grunt is the counterpart to one PC.
• Minions are frail but make up for it by fighting in
large numbers—for the cost of one grunt you can
field four minions.
• Elites are tough champions and powerful captains
with twice the staying power of an grunt.
• Paragons are a force to be reckoned with, able to
face an entire adventuring party single-handed.
Choose the rank that best describes how your
monster acts in combat and then apply attribute
modifiers as shown in the Combat Ranks table below.
Trained Saving rows
When you create a new scaling monster, you can choose
one or more trained saving throws (TSTs). Try to split
these evenly between strong and weak save categories:
• Strong: Dexterity, Constitution, Wisdom.
• Weak: Strength, Intelligence, Charisma.
reat
Each rank has a threat rating that describes how many
players (of equal level) should be threatened by this
monster in combat. A grunt, for example, is a threat for
one player character while an elite is a threat for two.
Use threat ratings to mix-and-match ranks easily. For
more details, see Making Encounters (p25).

Combat Roles
E very monster has a preferred fighting
style. Some like to charge into the front-line while
others launch projectiles into the fray. Some wait for
just the right moment to strike while others devastate
and destroy with wild abandon.
This chapter introduces combat roles to help you
customize the fighting abilities of your scaling monster.
Kalister Prax watched the distant heroes through her
telescope as they blithely crossed the bridge. Those
fools—they had no right to trespass here. The hobgoblin
turned, barking out orders for her unit to assemble.
On her left, goblin guncrackers formed a line. With
keen eyes, they would shoot from afar. On her right, orc
wolfriders reared and roared—they were eager to ride,
scout, and harass. And in the middle stood her prized
hobgoblin shieldwarriors—heavily armored and ready to
defend against any attack.
Kalister grinned. This might be a ramshackle squad
defending empire territory in the middle of nowhere—
but it was hers, and she would lead it with pride.
Choosing a Role
A combat role defines a fighting style in battle, adjusting
attributes and granting access to special features. There
are six roles you can choose from:
Controller: Manipulate enemies by maneuvering foes,
inflicting conditions, and transforming terrain.
Defender: Defend allies by securing territory,
guarding the weak, and enduring pain.
Lurker: Backstab enemies by sneaking unseen,
exploiting weaknesses, and assassinating targets.
Skirmisher: Outflank enemies by spotting threats,
evading attacks, and travelling the land.
Striker: Dominate enemies by butchering foes,
aiming attacks, and suppressing the battlefield.
Supporter: Support allies by empowering friends,
leading teams, and mending the sick.
Choose the role that best describes how your
monster acts in combat and then apply attribute
modifiers as shown in the Combat Roles table below.

Paragon Features
I n battle, the side with the most people is
often the side that wins; with enough attacks, even
the mightiest monster can be brought low. But what do
you do when you want to run a combat encounter with
a tiny number of monsters?
This chapter introduces paragon features and how
you can use them to perk up your action economy.
Drakken grinned at the three so-called heroes as they
approached his throne, weapons drawn. Just a year ago,
these odds would have worried him—but now, Tiamat's
power surged through his blessed veins. Three
enemies? Hah. This battle would be no challenge at all...
Paragon Features
 Paragon Power (Threat-1 per round): At the end of
another creature's turn, you may either:
A. Act: Regain your reaction and take an action. You
may spend some or all of your remaining
movement as part of that action.
This does not count as your turn. You can't
dash more than once per round, and you lose the
benefit of any currently-held disengage, dodge or
readied action.
B. Resist: Reroll a saving throw against an ongoing
effect. Spend [2 × combat level] hit points to gain
advantage on the roll.
If you succeed against a Concentration effect,
you lose [2 × combat level] hit points.
 Paragon Defence (Threat/2 per lr): When you would
fail a saving throw, you may spend [2 × combat level] hit
points to succeed.
PATREON.COM/GIFFYGLYPH
Paragon Power
Paragon power is a special resource that allows a
monster to act multiple times each round, resist
ongoing effects, and empower attacks—essential
abilities for elites and paragons who might otherwise be
outnumbered by a full adventuring party.
With paragon power, a single monster can tilt the
action economy back in their favor and stand firm
against overwhelming odds.
When another creature finishes its turn, you may
spend one paragon power to do one of the following:
• Act: Regain your reaction (if expended) and take an
action. You may spend some or all of your remaining
movement as part of this action.
• Resist: Reroll a failed saving throw against an
ongoing effect. Spend a number of hit points equal to
2 × your combat level to gain advantage on the roll.
A monster has a reserve of paragon power equal to
their threat rating minus one, and they regain all
expended paragon power at the start of their turn—so
don't worry about hoarding it. Use paragon power to be
bold, dynamic, and cinematic in battle.
Scalers & Statics
Paragon powers are primarily designed for scalers, but
you can easily use them with static monsters (i.e. those
found in other 5th Edition materials).
If your monster has any legendary features (actions,
defences, etc.), remove them—paragon features always
replace legendary features.
PARAGON FEATURES
 GIFFYGLYPH'S MONSTER MAKER
A Act
When you act, you regain your reaction (if expended)
and take one action. You can also spend some (or all) of
your remaining movement during this action. However,
take note of the following:
• Dash: You can't take the Dash action more than once
per round (with limited exceptions, i.e. bonus actions,
magic items, spells, etc.).
• Disengage, Dodge, and Ready: When you act, you
lose the benefit of any Disengage, Dodge, or Ready
action you are currently maintaining unless you
spend your action to maintain the effect.
• Not a Turn: Acting in this way does not count as a
turn. Effects that take place at the start or end of
your turn are not triggered.
Zane, Chansi, and Viridian engage Drakken, a fierce
chromatic herald of Tiamat.
• Drakken spends his turn to move 20 ft. adjacent to
Zane and then uses claw slash to attack.
• Zane uses his turn to attack Drakken—but misses!
• At the end of Zane's turn, Drakken spends one
paragon power to act. He uses the action to push the
rogue away 10 ft., and then spends his remaining 10
ft. to move towards Chansi...
Be Big, Bold, and Cinematic
Though it may be tempting to use your paragon power
actions to relentlessly attack the nearest character, this
can lead to dull and tedious combat.
Try to avoid using the same actions in a row. Dash
across the battlefield, shove, taunt, threaten, put
pressure on unsuspecting players, and be cinematic.
B Resist
When you resist, you reroll a failed saving throw against
an ongoing effect on yourself—such as Hold Person,
Bane, Hypnotic Pattern, Ray of Enfeeblement, Bestow
Curse, Banishment, or Phantasmal Killer.
Resisting in this way does not count as an action or
reaction, but you must be conscious to do so.
Determination: When you resist, you may spend a
number of hit points equal to 2 × your combat level to
gain advantage on the roll.
Feedback: When you use resist and succeed against a
Concentration effect, you lose a number of hit points
equal to 2 × your combat level.
Chansi has used Ensnaring Strike to restrain Drakken.
During his turn, Drakken fails to shrug off the effect—at
the end of Zane's turn, Drakken spends one paragon
power to resist. He spends 14 hit points to gain
advantage and then, when he succeeds, loses another
14 hit points due to Chansi's concentration.
PARAGON FEATURES
Cinematic Actions
Any level, rank, or role

enemies, daring them to attack you.
 Monologue: You talk at your enemies while taking the
Disengage action to reposition yourself.
 Threaten: You threaten your enemies and Ready an
Action to trigger if your demands are not met.
 Shove: You shove a target within reach. Make a melee
attack vs. the target's AC. If you succeed, you can
choose to either a) knock the target prone or b) push
the target 10 ft. away from you.
 Grab: With a free hand, you grab a target within reach.
Make a melee attack vs the target's AC. If you succeed,
the target is grappled by you.
 Change the Environment: You take the Use an Object
action to do something with the environment—knock
over a pillar, kick open a door, start a fire, etc.
 Support: You take the Help action to assist an ally with
an attack roll or ability check.
 Power Up (Cooldown): You start to prepare a precision
attack. The first attack you make during your next
action is rolled with advantage. If you take damage
before your next action (or are otherwise interrupted),
this effect ends.
 Execute (Cooldown): You prepare to kill a creature
within reach that is at 0 hit points. The first attack you
make during your next action deals instant death to the
creature. If you take damage before your next action (or
are otherwise interrupted), this effect ends.
C Empowered Actions
Empowered actions allow you enhance an ability or an
attack with paragon power. This is an easy way to add
variety to your basic attacks and spend paragon power
even when there are no other creatures around.
Use the Empowered Actions table below to build some
action variants, or create your own:

Paragon Defence
Paragons also gain access to paragon defence, a powerful
ability that can turn failure into success. When you
would fail a saving throw, you may instead succeed by
spending a number of hit points equal to 2 × your
combat level.
Paragons can do this a number of times equal to half
their target player count (rounded down) per long rest.
Narrate a Consequence
When you use paragon defence, you should describe a
narrative consequence to the players—what is
happening to your monster?
This is important for two reasons: it a) notifies the
players that a major gameplay mechanic has been used,
and b) sets clear expectations on the encounter. Use this
as an opportunity to heighten the drama of the current
conflict and demonstrate that the paragon is expending
effort to use a limited resource.
Choose a consequence from the table below, or
create your own to suit your scaler.
Narrative Consequences
d10 Description
1 You hear a sudden crack...
2 There is a disgusting pop...
3 Something delicate shatters...
4 You see something break...
5 Something falls off...
6 A wound tears open...
7 There is a terrible roar...
8 There is a sudden flare of light...
9 You hear a loud bang...
10 You smell a foul odour...
The lich reaches into its skeletal chest, grabs at one of
three blue crystals, and crushes it. Immediately, you feel
the lich's will bolstered with arcane power...
Alternative Costs
By default, you must spend hit points to use a paragon
defence. But if you want to use an alternative cost,
consider some of the following options:
Cracked Armor: Reduce your AC by 1.
Vulnerability: You gain a damage vulnerability.
Frail: You are critically hit on a 19-20 (increasing to
18-20/17-20/etc.).
Weakness: Your attacks deal half damage until the
end of your next turn.
Mental Shock: Roll a d20. If you roll less than 10, you
are stunned until the end of your next turn.
Mix and match these costs to create a range of
paragon defences for your scalers.

Making Encounters
O nce you've assembled together a horde
of monsters, it's time to start a fight! Monsters
rarely act alone, however—they team up with allies and
use treacherous traps to confront, surround, and
overcome unwary adventurers. But how do you build
and balance these combats?
This chapter introduces encounter outlines to help
you build combat encounters for your games.
Make an Encounter
A combat encounter pits your players against one or
more monsters—combat ensues, usually ending with
one side's death, defeat, escape, or surrender.
• As the party descends into the sewers beneath Little
Grundelflat, they are surprised by a swarm of sticky,
•
foul-smelling oozes.
In the Darksand Desert, a wild bulette leaps out of
the ground just as an obscuring sandstorm hits...
• A trio of goblin snipers fire crossbows from the city
rooftop; can the party make good use of cover?
• A gargantuan dragon tears through the castle wall—
if the party can't stop the dragon's rampage fast, the
whole castle is likely to collapse.
• A vampire lord commands his undead champions to
butcher the party—no grace, no mercy, just violence.
• As abominations pour through the portal, the party
must defend the mages long enough for them to
finish the sealing ritual.
Once you have some inspiration, it's time to make an
encounter! To turn your idea into a fully-featured
combat encounter, take the following six steps.
MAKING ENCOUNTERS
Set the Scene
Your first step is to set the scene—what is happening,
and where is happening? For some quick inspiration,
use the tables provided in Set the Scene (p28).
Choose a theme, some creature details, and some
basic tactics. Then choose 5-10 keywords from the
Environmental Details list to help flavour the encounter.
Valiant, Zane, and Chansi descend into Grundleflat's
sewers as they pursue an assassin, only to run afoul of
some oozes:
• Grundleflat Sewers (sewers, warm, sticky, dark,
rancid, echoing, cramped) Aggressive oozes surprise
the party, attacking from two directions.
Create a Combat Outline
Next, create an combat outline by establishing three
basic properties—the target party size, the average
encounter level, and the intended amount of danger.
Party Size: Decide how many players the encounter
should support (typically 3 to 6).
Encounter Level: Choose a combat level for this
encounter (typically 1 to 20). When in doubt, use a
level within −2/+2 of the party's average character
level. For more advice on choosing levels, see p8.
Danger: Describe how dangerous the encounter
should be (trivial, easy, normal, hard, or extreme).
Consider adding a battle map or description of the
environment, and think of at least one notable terrain
feature as you build an engaging combat arena.

The oozes are split into two groups and attack the party
from two opposing directions. Oozes are ravenous
carnivores. A cunning adventurer might be able to distract
the swarm with a hunk of rotting meat...
• Sticky Oozes latch on to nearby prey with sticky
pseudopods and spew dissolving, corrosive acid to melt
flesh and bone.
• Bloated Oozes hang from ceilings and spit digestive
juices. With volatile gas pockets, these oozes are
vulnerable to piercing damage—but don't stand nearby
if one pops.

wear the skin of their latest meal as a shell.

A kobold slinger (grunt) is equipped with Stink Pot (1
charge), an uncommon attack feature that 1) deals
poison damage and 2) inflicts the Poisoned condition.
This attack can be used one time (one attack, one
pot) before the slinger runs out of ammunition.
Recharging
When you use a recharging feature, it is exhausted until
either a) the feature is randomly recharged or b) you
complete a short or long rest. At the start of your turn,
roll a d6—if you roll within a specified range, you can
use the feature again as normal.
Choose a die range from the Recharge Time table

A tiefling pyromancer is equipped with an uncommon
Scorch (recharge) attack feature. Because the tiefling

During her turn, she uses the attack to hit Valiant
with some fire damage. The attack is then exhausted. At
the start of her next turn, the GM rolls a d6. The result is
only a 3—the attack has not yet recharged.
Cooldown
When you use a cooldown feature, it is exhausted until a
period of time has passed. Once a cooldown feature is
exhausted, start a countdown timer. At the start of each
of your turns, reduce the timer by 1—once it reaches 0,

C Rare Features
Rare features are extra-special abilities that, when
exhausted, take significant time to recover (typically a
long rest). These are some of your most powerful
features—limit breaks, overdrive techniques,
masterwork magic, etc.
When you describe a rare attack, use plenty of flavor
and description—these are your most dangerous and
exciting abilities, so put on a good show.
Recovery
Elites and paragons are able to recharge their rare
features when a particular event is triggered—being
bloodied, becoming enraged, draining a pool of power,
consuming a potion, sacrificing a victim, etc.
To get started, choose a recovery event from the list
below or create your own.
Recovery Events
Event
1 You become bloodied or enraged.
2 A significant ally is reduced to 0 hit points.
3 You collect (or are given) new ammunition.
4 You make a significant sacrifice.
5 You absorb a burst of power.
6 You reduce a player character to 0 hit points.
A sinister lich is equipped with a Soul Rend (rare)
attack. The lich is a paragon monster, and so the GM
chooses a recovery event for the attack—in this case,
whenever a player character is reduced to 0 hit points.
During a battle, the lich uses Soul Rend to attack the
party and then finishes off a player character with a ray
of frost. As the character falls to 0 hit points, the lich
harvests some soul energy to recharge Soul Rend.
Build Fun Synergies
Rarities and recharge conditions make it easy to create
fun, flavorful synergies. For example:
• Reloader: A static, inanimate hazard (e.g. a rockfall
trap) has an feature with 3 charges. It can be
Lucky: A monster has a slow recharge feature. If
monster, they roll their recharge with advantage.
• Booster: A hazard has a slow cooldown feature.
Another monster (e.g. a supporter) has an ability to
reduce the cooldown by 1.
• Battery: A monster has a feature with 2 charges. If
they are within range of a particular hazard (e.g. an
arcane battery), the feature costs 0 charges to use.
Use these interplays to help create little narratives and
challenges within your combat encounters.

 GIFFYGLYPH'S MONSTER MAKER
Defences
If you make an attack, your target has a chance to
defend itself—blocking a sword with a shield, dodging
an explosion with uncanny precision, defying a magical
command with stern resolve, etc.
There are seven defences—AC, STR, DEX, CON, INT,
WIS, and CHA—each dealing with a particular range of
themes and effects. Choose one defence that is most
appropriate for your particular attack.
Defensive Options
To help you choose a defense, consider the primary
effect of your attack—what influence are you trying to
have on the target, and how are you trying to achieve it?
Then use the descriptions below and the Defensive
Keywords table to determine the appropriate option.
1 Armor Class (AC)
AC is about armor and fighting ability. When you try to
hit a target with something that can be deflected,
parried, or absorbed, the target must watch out and
block with AC.
2 Strength (STR)
Strength is about force and resistance. When you try to
move, grab, or restrain a target with physical force, the
target must hold their ground and resist with a Strength
saving throw.
3 Dexterity (DEX)
Dexterity is about precision and reflexes. When you try
to hit a target with something that blasts, explodes,
rains, or sprays over an area, the target must move with
precision and evade with a Dexterity saving throw.
4 Constitution (CON)
Constitution is about resilience and sensitivity. When
you try to change or affect the physical form of a target
(extreme temperatures, poison, corruption, blind,
deafen), the target must grit their teeth and endure with
a Constitution saving throw.
5 Intelligence (INT)
Intelligence is about sanity and knowledge. When you
try to affect the mind and mental abilities of a target,
the target must hold onto their sanity and focus with an
Intelligence saving throw.
6 Wisdom (WIS)
Wisdom is about instinct and perception. When you try
to subtly influence a target's judgement without them
knowing about it, the target must harness their insight
and perceive the truth with a Wisdom saving throw.
7 Charisma (CHA)
Charisma is about presence and soul. When you try to
openly control a target or transform their essence by
force, the target must hold onto their sense of self and
defy you with a Charisma saving throw.

Varying Defences
There are many ways to achieve the same goal in
combat. The way you describe your attack will define
how it can be defended against—use this to dive into the
fiction and create a wide variety of interesting,
narrative-rich attacks for your monsters.
The GM wants to create a Cause Fear attack. They can
do so in a variety of ways—for example:
• I raise your adrenaline levels to make you feel afraid.
(Chemical, CON save)
• I create a hallucination in your mind to make you
afraid. (Hallucination, INT save)
• I create an illusion of something terrifying to make
you afraid. (Illusion, WIS save)
• I command you to be afraid of me. (Command, CHA
save)
Later, the GM wants to create a Petrification attack for
their encounters—for example:
• I shoot a magical arrow that turns you into a statue.
(Shoot, AC)

Defence Definitions
These definitions may vary on occasion when
compared to the 5th Edition SRD—but that's by design.
Player spells and effects can be very inconsistent with
defences—INT, WIS, and CHA saves in particular—and
so don't make for a reliable foundation.
The definitions and keywords used here serve to
clearly distinguish the intent and effect of your attack,
helping you to pick defences with ease and consistency.

 GIFFYGLYPH'S MONSTER MAKER
Deferrals
If your feature is uncommon or rare, you can use a
deferral to change when it chooses targets, makes
attacks, or applies effects—a fireball becomes a ticking
bomb, a punch becomes a dooming fist of death, a
healing power becomes a regeneration power, etc.
There are two types of deferral: delayed, and
dooming. Choose one when you want to mix things up.
A Delayed
When you activate a delayed feature, you must wait until
some time passes (i.e. 1, 2, or 3 turns) before you choose
targets and make attacks.
These are your countdown attacks—things that tick
down, wind up, or charge power. Use these to threaten
areas and encourage movement to avoid being a hit.
Using a Delayed Feature
When you use a delayed feature, first describe what you
are doing (charging power, throwing an explosive,
causing a cave-in, etc.) and the likely area or targets that
will be affected by the attack. Then:
Create a visible countdown timer.
At the start of your turns, reduce the timer by 1.
When the timer reaches 0, choose your targets
immediately and make attacks if required.
Apply effects to any affected target before you
continue with the rest of your turn.
This process may be interrupted if, when the timer
reaches 0, you are unable to choose targets or the
situation otherwise no longer applies.
As they assault the Ctharonite Workshop, Valiant and
Viridian are attacked by a pair of mad artificers.
• GM: The mad artificer aims her spark cannon into
the air and fires. A crackling orb lands next to you,
Valiant, pulsing with raw electrical power. You hear a
beeping that seems to be rapidly accelerating...
• Valiant: Uh. How rapidly?
• GM: You think about one round (puts a d6 on the
table). Sparks are reaching out in a 10 ft. sphere...
Use Visible Clocks
When you start a countdown, try to make it clearly
visible to the players. Countdowns serve two important
purposes: 1) to inform your players that something will
happen soon (even if they don't know exactly what), and
2) to build anticipation about the event.
Try using a d6 as a physical timer. If the countdown is
on a player (i.e. a doom clock), give them ownership of
the die as a tangible relic of their approaching doom.
MAKING FEATURES
B Dooming
When you hit a target with a dooming feature, you must
wait until some time passes (i.e. 1, 2, or 3 turns) before
you apply the effects.
These are your pressuring features—things that
corrupt, spread, or build up. Use these to give your
players a sense of impending doom.
Activating a Dooming Attack
When you use a dooming feature, choose your targets
and make attacks if required. When a target is hit, it
gains a new countdown timer—the doom clock.
At the start of each of the target's turns, reduce the
doom clock by 1. Once it reaches 0, doom has arrived—
the target suffers the feature's effects.
Dispelling Doom
Doom can be countered if the target spends an action to
take a reasonable countermeasure—bathing in water to
quench fire, pulling out a poisonous stinger, focusing
the mind against a hallucination, etc.
Depending on the action taken, this may require one
or more ability checks from the target.
Respite
You can use dooming features to deliver positive effects
to targets—such as healing or empowerments. In this
case, reflavor doom as respite.

Making Effects
A t the heart of every scaling feature is
an effect—a rule that describes how your monster
deal damages or affects the world. But how do you build
and balance these effects? What's appropriate for a
common attack, or an uncommon trait, or a rare bonus
action utility?
This chapter introduces effect points, effect durations,
and six effect types to help you flesh out and complete
your scaling features.
Effects
An effect describes the mechanical, in-game impact of a
feature—how much damage is dealt, what conditions are
applied, what boons does your ally get, how long do they
last for, etc.
This chapter details six categories of effect: deal
damage, inflict conditions, force movement, destroy
resources, change terrain, and empower allies. Mix-
and-match these effect types to build a wide range of
features for your scaling monsters.
Combat Roles
You can use effects to reinforce the themes and
fighting styles of your combat roles by focusing on
particular effect types—for example:
• Controller: Inflict Conditions, Affect Terrain.
• Defender: Force Movement, Empower Ally.
• Lurker: Deal Damage, Destroy Resources
• Skirmisher: Destroy Resources, Inflict Conditions.
• Striker: Deal Damage, Destroy Resources
• Supporter: Empower Ally, Affect Terrain.
PATREON.COM/GIFFYGLYPH
E fect Types
Effect Description
Deal Damage The target takes damage.
Inflict Conditions The target gains conditions.
Change Terrain Change the terrain in some fashion.
Destroy Resources The target loses precious resources.
Force Movement The target is forcibly moved.
Empower Ally Grant power to a nearby ally (or
yourself).
E fect Durations
Effects can have different durations—some fade away in
an instant, while others linger for an extended period of
time. There are six basic categories of duration:
Instant: The effect ends once resolved.
End of Your Next Turn: The effect ends at the end of
your next turn.
End of the Target's Next Turn: The effect ends either
a) at the end of the target's next turn or b) when an
appropriate countering action is taken.
Concentration: At the start of each of your turns, you
reapply the consequences to the target. Unless
specified otherwise, the effect ends after either a) 1
minute passes or b) you lose concentration.
Ongoing: At the start of each of its turns, the target
may make a saving throw to end the effect (choose a
saving throw and a DC). On a failed save, the target
suffers the consequences again.
Save Ends: At the end of each of its turns, the target
may make a saving throw to end the effect (choose a
saving throw and a DC).
Each effect type will describe which durations in
particular can be used and at what cost.

Overkill Attacks
T he biggest, scariest monsters need the
biggest, scariest attacks. When the party's on the
verge of thwarting your plans—or have suddenly put
themselves in a vulnerable position—it's time to unleash
your full power and go into overkill. Take no prisoners,
and leave no adventurer alive.
This chapter introduces a cinematic, automatically-
hitting attack—overkill attacks—and how to use them in
your encounters.
• A dragon takes in a deep breath, fire burning in its
chest, as it prepares to melt flesh, stone, and steel..
• Storm clouds boil above a mad sorcerer as she
charges a cataclysmic lightning bolt...
• A werewolf howls, ready to tear open the jugular of
its grappled victim...
Storm of Chaos
Overkill Attack
With foul runes and hellish words, you pull the demonic
energies of the Abyss into this world. Glowing red veins
tear across your skin as the Abyss pours into you, and black
storm clouds gather above.
On your next turn, the abyssal energy erupts from you in
a burning wave of chaos.
• Requirement: You are bloodied.
• Range: A 30 ft. radius sphere centered on yourself.
• Targets: Any non-demonic creature.
• Hit: The creature takes 400% fire damage.
• Extreme: If a creature is reduced to 0 hit points by this
attack, it is immediately killed and reanimates at the
start of your next turn as a possessed, demonic vessel.
OVERKILL ATTACKS
Going Into Overkill
An overkill attack is a huge, devastating, and almost
certainly fatal attack that elites and paragons can
unleash against the party. These are your biggest, most
cinematic attacks—an ultimate technique that can
destroy PCs, NPCs, and scenery alike:
Charge: You spend an action on your turn to start
charging up the attack—drawing in breath,
channelling mana, gathering strength, etc.
Focused: Charging the attack takes all of your
attention—you can't move or take actions/reactions.
Vulnerable: Charging the attack may expose a weak
point that—if reduced to 0 hit points—will stun you.
Unleash: The attack finishes charging at the start of
your next turn. You then spend the entirety of your
turn unleashing the attack.
Hit: Any valid target still in range of the attack is hit
automatically.
Damage: You deal a massive amount of damage, equal
to four times your base damage.
Destroy: If the attack is extreme, any target reduced
to 0 hit points is immediately killed.
Cinematic Spectacle
Overkill attacks are a great way to add some cinematic
spectacle to your battles and end-game bosses,
creating spikes of danger and tension throughout battle
to put your players in peril.
Use plenty of over-the-top description to make your
overkill attacks big, loud, and exciting. Highlight the
deadly power of your monsters.

Creating an Attack
To make an overkill attack for your monster or hazard,
follow these three steps:
Pick a Trigger
First, you must decide exactly when the attack can be
used. Does your scaler go into overkill when bloodied?
When it's grabbed a player? When the players disrupt a
sacred ritual circle?
Pick an event from the list below to get started—or
create your own. When the event is triggered, your
overkill attack is unlocked.
Overkill Triggers
Type Description
Bloodied You are reduced to 50% or fewer hit points.
Event The party does something that disrupts your
plans—release a prisoner, disrupt a ritual,
destroy a power crystal, etc.
Free No restriction—you can perform this attack
whenever you like.
Peril A player is in a perilous condition—grappled,
restrained, stunned, etc.
The GM wants to create an overkill attack for a 9th-level
paragon striker—Kaladraxis, a vainglorious red dragon
with a fiery temperament.
To get started, the GM picks the "Bloodied" trigger.
When Kaladraxis is hurt by the adventurers, he's going
to get very, very angry...
Choose the Range & Targets
Next, decide the range and targets of the attack. Overkill
attacks almost-always originate from you, striking out at
anyone unfortunate enough to still be in range. Pick a
basic template from the list below to get started:
Overkill Area
Type Description
Aimed Hits one or more specific targets—such as a
grabbed or stunned player within reach.
Area Hits everyone within a certain area—a cone, a
sphere, a line, etc.
Zone The attack fills an entire zone or arbitrary region
of the map.
In his rage, Kaladraxis' overkill attack will flood the
entire chamber with searing dragonbreath.
Instead of a traditional dragonbreath cone, the GM
chooses an area template (centered on Kaladraxis) with
a 40 ft. radius—the party will have to run for their lives
to escape the dragon's hellish flames...
PATREON.COM/GIFFYGLYPH
GIFFYGLYPH.COM    
e Danger Zone
Make sure that it's possible for your players (at least,
most of them) to get out of range of the attack in only
one turn—even if it means dashing.
If your players can only move 30 ft. with a move
action, for example, avoid using a 70 ft. area for your
overkill attack unless the players have either a) a clear
means of escape or b) safe spots to take cover in.
Safe Spots
When you build an encounter, make sure to add some
interesting scenery that players can use in creative ways
to protect themselves—pillars to hide behind, tables to
flip over for cover, pools of water to dive into, dead
magic zones that nullify magical overkill, etc.
The GM adds a couple of stone pillars to the encounter
scenery as possible cover—but not enough for every
player. They'll have to decide who gets to hide and who
gets to run—fast.
Determine the Damage
Now, it's time to see how much damage your attack will
do. Overkill attacks deal up to four times your regular
base damage—enough to kill a healthy adventurer in one
hit.
Overkill attacks shouldn't be taken lightly, so make
sure to highlight the grave danger.
As a 9th-level paragon striker, Kaladraxis deals 28 base
damage. This means his overkill attack will deal 112 fire
damage—almost certain to kill any unfortunate creature
caught in the blast.
Extreme Overkill
If you want to make players really afraid of your overkill
attack, make it extreme.
If a player is reduced to 0 hit points by an extreme
overkill attack, they are killed outright—any remaining
death saves automatically fail.
Watch the World Burn
Overkill Attack
Your chest starts to swell with raging dragonfire and your
body becomes burning hot—so hot that stone begins to
melt beneath you from the scorching heat.
On your next turn, you breathe scorching hot dragonfire
all around to melt stone, steel, and flesh.
• Requirement: You are bloodied.
• Range: Reach 40 ft.
• Targets: Any creature.
• Hit: The creature takes 400% fire damage.
• Extreme: If a creature is reduced to 0 hit points by this
attack, it is disintegrated.

 GIFFYGLYPH'S MONSTER MAKER
Using an Attack
To use an overkill attack, follow these three steps:
Telegraph the Attack
Take an action to start your overkill attack and
telegraph the impending danger—everyone should know
what's coming up so that they have a chance to avoid it.
Describe what is happening, where it will happen, and
when it will happen. Make it clear that any valid target
not in adequate cover will be hit automatically—the only
defense is to be out of the attack range.
Inside Redstone Volcano, Valiant, Krazak, and Clanda
battle Kaladraxis, the wild red dragon. When he is
bloodied, Kaladraxis uses an overkill attack.
• GM: The red dragon Kaladraxis starts to draw in
breath. Valiant, you can see its chest swell with
dangerous power—an incredible amount of heat is
radiates from the dragon as it goes into overkill.
• Kaladraxis: Insolent mortals, you will all burn!
• Valiant: Can I see where Kaladraxis is aiming?
• GM: You think he's going to flood this entire chamber
with searing, deadly flame in just six seconds.
• Valiant: Uh, everyone? We should probably run.
Charge up Power
When you go into overkill, you charge up power. While
charging, your speed is reduced to 0 and you can't take
actions or reactions (nor spend paragon power).
If you are stunned, fall unconscious, or are otherwise
put in a position where you can't reasonable charge up
your overkill attack, the action fizzles to no effect.
• GM: The heat from Kaladraxis is intense as the
dragonfire builds. What do you do, Krazak?
• Krazak: Dragon can't breathe fire if it's stunned. And
my Stormbreaker axe can stun on a crit...
• GM: You attack the dragon?
• Krazak: Damn right I attack the dragon! I charge at
Kaladraxis with Stormbreaker drawn. Ancestors, if
ever I needed a critical it's now... (rolls 1) ...son of a.
• GM: The heat throws off your swing, Krazak. You skid
to a halt in front of the grinning dragon...
Explain the Mechanics
When you introduce overkill attacks into your game, be
sure that your players are aware and understand the
mechanic—otherwise they may expect to be able to use
their normal defensive abilities, or may not anticipate
such high damage from a single attack.
OVERKILL ATTACKS
Reveal a Weak Point
While you are charging an overkill attack, you may
reveal a weak point of some kind—a delicate crystal
core, a loose dragon scale, a fragile magic rune, etc.
This weak point has HP equal to 10% of your total hit
points and—by default—shares your defences.
If this weak point is reduced to 0 hit points, you a)
immediately take damage equal to the weak point's
maximum HP and b) are stunned until the end of your
next turn. These effects can't be circumvented by any
means—resistances, immunities, paragon power, etc.
While Kaladraxis is charging up his overkill attack, he
reveals an environmental weak spot—a fragile-looking
stalactite hanging directly above him with 38 hit points
(10% of Kaladraxis' 383 HP) and 18 AC.
If the stalactite is reduced to 0 hit points, it falls onto
Kaladraxis—the dragon will take 38 points of damage
and be stunned until the end of his next turn.
• GM: Steam vents from the dragon's scales—there
isn't much time left. Clanda, what do you do?
• Clanda: First, I'll duck behind this pillar just in case.
Second, I want to break that stalactite you described
with a 5th-level Shatter—bring it right down onto
that dragon's smug face. That'll be... (rolls 6d8) ...34
points of thunder damage!
• GM: Explosive thunder echoes throughout the
cavern. The stalactite cracks... but it's not enough.
• Clanda: ...Oh dear.
A weak point can only be seen or attacked while you
are in overkill. If you want to bait players into staying
within your overkill range, expose a weak point.
Attack
The overkill attack is fully charged at the start of your
next turn, and you must use your full turn to unleash it.
Any target in range is automatically hit with full damage
—make sure to describe this with cinematic spectacle.
After the end of your turn, once the overkill attack
has been resolved, you can act as normal.
• GM: "You will turn to ash!" roars Kaladraxis as he
breathes volcanic dragonfire into the chamber.
• Clanda: We're all safe behind this pillar, right?
• GM: You and Valiant are—but Krazak isn't. The dwarf,
standing his ground, is hit full force by the extreme
attack. He takes 112 points of fire damage.
• Krazak: ...I'm down to 0 hit points. Damn. I stand
defiant, my charred arm holding aloft a melted axe.
"That. All. You. Got?" And then I fall.
• GM: Krazak's body disintegrates into ash as it hits
the ground—the dwarf is no more. Kaladraxis laughs,
scattering the ashes with a tail swipe.
• Kaladraxis: One down, two to go.

Examples
To get you started with overkill attacks, here are some
basic examples you can give to your monsters.
Snap Neck

• Target: A grabbed creature.
• Hit: The creature takes 400% bludgeoning damage.
Devour

bite into your victim with bone-crushing force and attempt
to swallow it.
• Range: Reach 5 ft.
• Target: A stunned creature.
• Hit: The creature takes 400% piercing damage. If the
creature is reduced to 0 hit points, you swallow it.
Whispers of Azatoth

and draw on its unknowable power. On your next turn, you
unleash a blast of maddening psychic energy.
• Requirement: Your minions have been killed.
• Range: A 30 ft. cone originating from you.
• Target: All creatures.
• Hit: The creature takes 400% psychic damage.
• Extreme: If a creature is reduced to 0 hit points by this

of corrosive acid that can melt stone, steel, and flesh.
• Requirement: You consume a vial of reptile acid.
• Range: A 30 ft. cone originating from you.
• Target: All creatures.
• Hit: The creature takes 400% acid damage.
• Extreme: If a creature is reduced to 0 hit points by this

PATREON.COM/GIFFYGLYPH
GIFFYGLYPH.COM    
Thunder Lance

damage, how does it affect you and the way you fight? Grunt/Elite/Paragon: You are at 100% hit points.
This chapter introduces battletide conditions and new
battletide effects to help you shake things up when your
monsters start to take damage.
Bloodied
Battletide Condition

Battletide Conditions Grunt/Elite: You are at 50% hit points or fewer.

Paragon: You are at 66% hit points or fewer.
A monster's battle status can be described with three
new conditions: refreshed, bloodied, and enraged. These
conditions are gained and lost automatically as-and-
when taking damage or receiving healing.
Enraged
Battletide Condition

Refreshed Paragon: You are at 33% hit points or fewer.

While a grunt, elite, or paragon is undamaged (i.e. at

100% hit points), it is refreshed and full of vigor.
Viridian is locked in battle with Sulfurak—an elite fire

Bloodied elemental with a burning temper. With a deft attack, the

tiefling manages to bring Sulfurak below 50% hit points.

clear description to showcase the shifting tide of battle
—use it to excite, emphasize, and refocus attention.

Enraged
When a paragon suffers a serious wound (i.e. at 33% hit
points), it becomes enraged.
This is a moment of dramatic escalation—the paragon
is backed into a corner and fighting for its life, so be
bold with your descriptions.
Minions
Battletide conditions and effects affect only grunts,
elites, and paragons. Minions (with low hit points and
weak defences) aren't important enough to track—they
are never refreshed, bloodied, or enraged.

Battletide Effects
As the tide of battle ebbs and flows, some monsters
grow stronger or weaker—a refreshed elf moves across
the battlefield with extra grace, a bloodied goblin is
frightened by its attacker, an enraged dragon breathes
empowered dragonfire.
Battletide effects change a monster's abilities
according to their condition. There are three categories
of effect: strengthening, weakening, and transformation.
• Strengthening effects empower a monster with new
or improved features.
• Weakening effects diminish a monster and make
them easier to overcome.
• Transformation effects change a monster's
fundamental capabilities in some fashion—movement
types, size categories, combat roles, keywords, etc.
By using different effect categories, you can
drastically alter the tone and combat potential of a
monster; a defender who gets tougher when they are
bloodied tells a very different story from a defender
who gets weaker when they are bloodied.
Choose effects that best suit the fiction of your
scaling monster—for example:
Defensive Stance
Battletide Effect (Strengthening)
While you are bloodied, increase your AC by 1.
Cracked Armor
Battletide Effect (Weakening)
While you are bloodied, decrease your AC by 1.
A Individual E fects
To create a battletide effect for a scaling monster, follow
these three steps:
Condition: Choose a battletide condition—refreshed,
bloodied, or enraged.
Category: Decide if the monster is stronger, weaker,
or transformed in this condition.
Effect: Pick an effect from one of the Battletide
Effects tables, or create your own.
Use these effects to showcase how your monsters
react under pressure.
The GM wants Sulfurak to get stronger when it is
bloodied to reflect the elemental's temperament.
The fire elemental burns with increased fury and
searing heat, so the GM chooses the Extender effect:
Sulfurak's reach extends by 5 ft.
PATREON.COM/GIFFYGLYPH
GIFFYGLYPH.COM    
B Group E fects
Battletide effects can also be used on large groups to
reflect encounter-wide features—morale, loyalty,
teamwork, lair effects, combat synergies, etc.
To create a battletide effect for a group of monsters,
follow these three steps:
Condition: Choose a battletide condition (refreshed,
bloodied, or enraged) and a particular group of
monsters that should be affected.
Category: Decide if the affected monsters are
stronger, weaker, or transformed in this condition.
Effect: Pick an effect from one of the Battletide
Effects tables, or create your own.
Percentage: Finally, choose the percentage of active
monsters that must be in this condition for the effect
to trigger—typically 50%, 75%, or 100%. The higher
the percentage, the harder it is to trigger this effect.
You can use these effects to influence the pace of
your combat encounters—for example:
• Escalation: When at least 50% of the targeted
monsters are bloodied, the battle gets harder.
• Rout: When at least 50% of the targeted monsters
are bloodied, the battle gets easier.
• Strike Team: When at least 50% of the targeted
monsters are refreshed, the battle gets harder.
• Spike: When a paragon is bloodied, the battle gets
easier—but when enraged, the battle gets harder.
Sulfurak is accompanied by 3 searing hearts. The GM
wants these grunts to get weaker when at least 2 of
them are bloodied—they gain the Fragile Hearts trait.
Fragile Hearts
Battletide Effect (Weakening)
When at least 50% of the searing hearts are bloodied,
attacks made against any searing heart will critically hit on
a roll of 19-20.
How Many E fects?
Battletide effects can be a fun and flavorful way to add
narrative-rich quirks and combat descriptions to your
scaling monsters and encounters.
But be careful not to go overboard—not everything
needs a battletide effect. Keep it simple, and when in
doubt use the following rule of thumb:
• A minion has 0 effects.
• A grunt may have 0-1 effects.
• An elite may have 0-2 effects.
• A paragon may have 0-3 effects.
• An encounter may have 0-2 group effects.

 GIFFYGLYPH.COM    

A e Borrower
Borrowers have temporary possession of magical power,
typically through an object, blessing, or curse. These
spellcaster rely on a magical focus—destroying this
focus can remove the borrower's magical abilities.
E e Puppet
Puppets are possessed by a greater power and made to
act by its command. These spellcasters rely on a
physical, mental, or spiritual connection with their
possessor—breaking this may free the puppet.

B e Innate
Innates are power incarnate—magic is in their very
blood and they know how to use it. These spellcasters
rely on their own willpower to carefully shape and
control their magical power—when an innate loses
control, they can be a danger to themselves and those
around them.
C e Oathsworn
Oathsworn draw their power from a sacred oath made
with the universe. These spellcasters rely on conviction
and strict adherence to their oath—words have power,
and few take this as seriously as the oathsworn.
F e Researcher
Researchers learn how to control magical power
through careful practice, dedication, and arduous study.
These spellcasters rely on their knowledge, training, and
expertise—researchers learn how to manipulate the
very fabric of reality itself.
G e Sacrificial
Sacrificials are rewarded with power when they make an
offering to a patron. These spellcasters rely on
promises, pacts, and sacrifices to fuel their power—but
woe betide the sacrificial who reneges on a pact made
with their patron.

D e Primal
Primals draw their power from the natural world and
take strength in careful measure. These spellcasters rely
on the environment and the elements—to fight a primal
in their native land is to invite disaster.
H e Vassal
Vassals are gifted power in exchange for loyal service to
a benefactor. These spellcasters rely on zeal, faith,
obedience, and worship—the vassal sets aside their
personal interests to serve a greater purpose.

Making a Spellcaster If you want your spellcaster to be able to perform this
spell regularly outside of combat, turn it into a ritual.
You can turn any scaling monster into a spellcaster with To perform a ritual, you must spend 10 minutes more
these two basic steps: than you usually would to cast the spell—but you don't
have to expend any action resources in the process

Choose a Magic Domain (recharges, cooldowns, charges, etc).

A magical domain acts a general theme for your Choose a Spell School
spellcaster and spellcasting abilities. Choose one from Spells can be categorized into one of eight schools of
the Magical Domains table or create your own. magic: abjuration, conjuration, divination, enchantment,
evocation, illusion, necromancy, and transmutation.

Create a Spell
Create a common, uncommon, or rare feature for your
spellcaster as normal (see p38). When you have a
suitable attack or utility feature, you can convert it into
a spell with these simple guidelines.
Choose Spellcasting Components
Spellcasting components are physical requirements you
must meet in order to cast your spell—if you can't
provide one or more of these components, you are
unable to cast the spell.
• Verbal (V): I need to be able to speak.
• Somatic (S): I need to be able to use one free hand.
• Material (M): I need to be in reach of a particular
resource or spellcasting focus.
Choose a number of components according to the
rarity of your feature: common (one), uncommon (two),
or rare (three). If your spell uses a material component,
you can (optionally) define what that material is.
Use the Spell Schools table below to help you choose
the school that best fits your particular action.
Set the Spell Level
Every spell has a spell level that helps describe its overall
power—1st level, 3rd level, etc. This can be useful to
know in certain circumstances (i.e. when someone tries
to interrupt the spell with Counterspell).
Your spell level is determined by your combat rank,
your combat level, and your action rarity—use the Spell
Levels table below to find the appropriate level.
Common Features: If your spell is of common rarity,
its level is always 0 (i.e. a cantrip).
No Spell Slots
By design, scalers don't use spell slots or other arcane
currencies to cast magic. If you want to emulate that
system more closely, use a selection of uncommon and
rare actions with a limited number of charges.

Spell Schools
School Description
Abjuration Create magical barriers, negate harmful effects, harm trespassers, or banish creatures to other planes.
Conjuration Transport objects and creatures from one location to another.

A e Pack
When a group of beasts or mindless creatures band
together in one place, they can form a feral pack.
A pack is a primal, gestalt intelligence more
perceptive—and more dangerous—than the the sum of
its parts. With a wild cunning, the pack can hunt,
surround, trap, and overwhelm far bigger targets—in
large enough numbers, the ant can overwhelm the tiger.
• The people of Timbervale find their logging camps
overwhelmed by a pack of beavers.
• The sewers of Upper Grundelroot have been infested
by a pack of oozes.
• A pack of wolves prowls Snowpine Forest and picks
at unwary, vulnerable adventurers.
• A pack of ravenous, mindless zombies leaves the
dead village to feast on the nearby town.
B e Machine
When a group of constructs are linked together in one
place, they can form a well-oiled machine.
A machine is an autonomous, goal-driven,
constructed entity—when given a task, the machine
does everything it can to complete that task as
efficiently and as unimaginatively as possible.
• A machine of interlinked modrons stands watch
outside a secret planar gateway.
• A swarm of tiny constructs form one unified machine
at the command of their artificer.
• A mage protects her arcane tower with roaming
machines of animated armor.
• A machine of golems digs tirelessly through the
mountain, following their long-dead creator's order.
C e Mob
When a group of creatures gather together in one place,
they can form an unruly mob.
A mob is a chaotic, emotional throng with a strong
desire for change but little-or-no direct leadership—the
mob may agree on what needs to change but not
necessarily why or how. Yet from that mayhem comes
action—a mob may change the status quo in ways the
individual cannot.
• A mob of scared civilians lashes out at an
adventuring party wearing suspicious armor.
• A mob of bandits attacks the village and steals a
sacred amulet from the church.
• A mob of trolls sets up a toll booth on a vital bridge

D e Horde
When several mobs are gathered under one banner,
they can form an innumerable horde.
A horde is a chaotic melting pot of creatures and
cultures—a writhing mass held together typically by one
strong leader who rules with strength, fear, respect, or
bribery (wealth, glory, retribution, etc.). Under the right
leader, a horde can be a devastating enemy.
• A powerful necromancer raises a horde of undead
skeletons to serve a nefarious purpose.
• Kaladraxis protects his mountain of treasure with a
horde of kobolds.
• A horde of barbarians, united under a wise leader,
travels south to escape the Winter King.
• A horde of chaotic warriors lays seige to Bastion, the
Walled City of the Northern Wild.
E e Squad
When a group of creatures work together in one place,
they can form a trained squad.
A squad is an organized entity with a strong sense of
order and unity. Members are typically trained to obey a
shared rulebook and code of conduct—everyone knows
their place and purpose in a squad.
• A squad of trained guards tries to arrest a band of
suspicious adventurers.
• A squad of devoted paladins leaves the camp at
sunrise to fulfill a divine oath.
• A squad of high elf spellswords use their combined
grace to surround and outmaneuver enemies.
• A squad of goblin guncrackers, held in line by a
commanding hobgoblin, attack as one unit.
F e Army
When several squads are assembled under an official
commander, they can form a professional army.
An army is a strict, regimented organization with a
well-understood chain of command—orders flow from
top to bottom, and those orders must be enacted
without question. Alert commanders know that this
chain of command is crucial to their army's success—
one broken link and the entire enterprise can fall apart.
• An orc emperor assembles a mighty army to protect
his #vast realm.
• A vampire army attacks the Spire of Toralath to

• The Matron Mothers of Elgin Orsul call forth their
drow army to attack a vulnerable dwarf city.
• A kobold army overthrows their draconic overlord

Making a Swarm Spliting a Swarm

You can turn any scaling monster into a swarm with A swarm can spend an action to split itself into two
these three basic steps: separate swarms.

Define the Swarm Size Split

First, define the size of the individual thing that makes
up the body of your swarm—the tiny bat, the medium
orc, the large giant, etc.
Then, define the size of your swarm—medium, huge,
gargantuan, etc. You must choose a swarm size larger
than than the individual size.
Gain Swarm Traits
Next, apply the following trait to your swarm:
Swarm
Any level, rank, or role
You can occupy another creature's space and vice versa.
You can move through any opening large enough for a
[individual size] creature. You can't regain hit points or gain
temporary hit points.
Your space is considered difficult terrain. You have
advantage on attack rolls against creatures in your space,
and creatures within your space have disadvantage on
attack rolls.
When you would be subject to any of the following
conditions, you instead lose hit points equal to your combat
level: charmed, frightened, grappled, paralyzed, petrified,
prone, restrained, or stunned.
Common Action
You split yourself into two separate swarms. Each new
swarm has 50% of your hit points (rounded down), deals
50% of your damage (rounded down), and is one size
smaller than you.
You can't split if your new swarm size would be equal to
or smaller than your individual size.

action to split into two separate swarms.
Each new swarm is small, has 22 hit points, and deals
10 base damage. The swarms then finish their turn by
each moving their remaining 20 ft.
Merging Swarms
A swarm can spend an action to merge itself into
another adjacent swarm of the same type.
Merge
Common Action

Choose a Bloodied Event
When a swarm is bloodied (see p53), something happens
that reflects the diminishing strength, quantity, or
morale of the swarm's individual creatures. Choose one
of the following events, or create your own:
You merge yourself into another adjacent or overlapping
swarm of the same type and size. Add your current hit
points to the target swarm.
If your size is equal to or larger than the target swarm,
increase the size of the target swarm by one and the
damage it deals by 100%.

his feet, and there was a chorus of pained squeals as
the axe cut clean through several rats.
The dwarf could tell that the swarm was bloodied—
he was now able to move freely through their rapidly-
thinning numbers...
This supplement also introduces a Swarmed condition
(p74) which you can use in your encounters.
Apply this condition to any creature that is
overlapped by a swarm, and remove it when the
situation demands (i.e. the creature moves away).

help the party and deal some damage, but can't endure You can turn any scaling monster into a sidekick with
much punishment in return. To make a hireling, start these two basic steps:
with a minion.

Add some Hit Dice

• A sorceress hires four bodyguards to help keep her Like most player characters, sidekicks have an
safe in the lawless city of Old Riftin. opportunity to mend their wounds. Add some hit dice
• A group of adventurers, preparing for travel, hire two based on your sidekick's combat rank and role:
acolytes to help administer their wounds.
• When ambushed by goblin wolfriders, a beastmaster
convinces four wolves to turn against their handlers.
Maximum Hit Dice
Combat Role Hit Dice
Minion 1 per 4 levels
Grunt 1 per level
B e Adept Elite 2 per level
Adepts are competent allies and capable fighters, able to Paragon 1 per threat per level
stand shoulder-to-shoulder with traditional PCs. To
make an adept, start with a grunt.
Hit Die Size
Combat Rank Hit Die Combat Rank Hit Die
• A lone fighter hires an adept wizard and cleric to join Controller d8 Striker d10
with them in tackling a dungeon. Defender d8 Skirmisher d6
• A new player starts a game with an adept to help Lurker d6 Supporter d10
learn the ropes before making a full character.
• When a character suddenly dies, the player decides
to play as an adept for the rest of the session. The GM wants to turn an orc soldier (5th-level grunt,
defender) into a sidekick. The orc gains 5 × d8 hit dice.

C e Champion
Champions are dangerous enemies but make powerful
allies. These are notable monsters and NPCs—creatures
who hurt and can take harm. To make a champion, start
with an elite.
• The party convinces an old hero to come out of
retirement for one last battle.
• A wild-eyed artificer with advanced, arcane weapons
helps the party break into a dragon's lair.
• The warlock speaks a secret word of eldritch power
and takes command of a gibbering abomination.
D e Powerhouse
Powerhouses are a sight to behold on the battlefield,
tackling multiple foes single-handed. These are your
most valuable allies—if you can find a way to keep them
that way. To make a powerhouse, start with a paragon.
• A priestess calls upon her deity and is transformed in
a radiant avatar to help battle the undead.
• To save the city from a tarrasque, the party fight
alongside a powerful red dragon and a mighty lich.
• A druid awakens the oldest treant to help save the
forest from fire elementals.
Choose a Class (Optional)
If you want your sidekick to emulate a traditional 5th
Edition class, choose a class package.
Some features can only be used a limited number of
times; if a feature specifies "PB/lr", you can use it a
number of times equal to your proficiency bonus.

A hazard is a special type of combatant that creates
problems for adventurers. These are things to be
avoided, endured, disabled, or disarmed—traps,
dangerous weather, hostile environments, automated
defences, toxic pits, patrolling sentinels, etc.
There are three basic categories of hazard, each with
their style of combat: traps, passives, and actives.

Type Description
Trap A hazard designed to surprise or ambush.
Passive A hazard that keeps to itself unless disturbed.
Active A hazard that actively hunts or hurts.

THE HAZARD PATREON.COM/GIFFYGLYPH


A e Trap
Traps are static hazards that are built, assembled, or
otherwise crafted to guard an area or resource. Use a
trap when you want to protect something, surprise an
adventurer, or test the party's perception.
• A kobold assembles a rockfall trap at the entrance of
their clan's den with some very heavy rocks.
• A dark wizard secures their precious spellbook with
a soulshredding trap that activates on touch.
• An artificer builds a trap room lined with spark
pylons, pitfalls, and spike traps.
B e Passive
Passive hazards keep to themselves until something
aggravates them—at which point they react defensively.
Use a passive hazard when you want the party to worry
about entering or moving around a particular area.
• A field of poisonous mushrooms releases toxic
spores when a poor creature steps into them.
• A giant, wandering sentinel bearing a valuable
treasure turns hostile only when attacked.
• A static turret watches over an area, shooting bolts
of force at any who dare approach.
C e Active
Active hazards are always on the hunt, causing harm to
any targets in range. Use an active hazard when you
want the party to sneak around an area, hide from a
pursuer, or endure an environmental force.
• Wandering elemental sentinels patrol the druid's
grove and attack any unfortunate intruder.
• A dangerous chaos storm rains down on the party,
electrocuting anyone not in cover.
• Deranged wraithmotes haunt the old graveyard and
siphon life from the living.
Overriding Attributes
If a hazard shouldn't have a particular ability, either a)
set the modifier to −5 or b) set the score to 0
(automatically fail ability checks/saving throws).
• Strength (STR): I can physically affect/resist things.
• Dexterity (DEX): I can move and/or aim at things.
• Constitution (CON): I can endure pain/damage.
• Intelligence (INT): I can make decisions/deductions.
• Wisdom (WIS): I can sense or search for things.
• Charisma (CHA): I am self-aware and/or influential.

Making a Hazard
You can turn any scaling monster into a hazard with
these three basic steps:
Define a Trigger
A hazard lies dormant until it is activated somehow—
stepping on a trigger plate, walking into range, making
noise, etc. Define this trigger in three parts:
What action or event activates the hazard?
What (if anything) happens when the hazard
becomes active?
How long does the hazard remain active for until it
becomes dormant again?
Set a Countermeasure
Next, define how the hazard can be overcome (if at all).
There are four basic types of countermeasure—choose
any that seem appropriate for your hazard and describe
any related events.
Countermeasures
Type Description
Disable The hazard can be completely disabled (i.e.
reduced to 0 hit points by an ability check).
Destroy The hazard can be destroyed through damage
and harmful effects.
Control The hazard can be controlled for a short time
through some means (i.e. with ability checks).
Distract The hazard can be distracted or diverted (i.e. with
an appropriate ability check).
Refine your Attributes
To finish off your hazard, review its attributes and adjust
any that seem out of place. Consider the following:
• Add a Damage Threshold: Some hazards are
particularly hardy and durable. Add a damage
threshold to showcase their resilience.
• Immobility: If your hazard is static and immobile,
remove any movement speeds.
• Immaterial: Not every hazard can be attacked,
damaged, or destroyed. If your hazard is a force (e.g. a
fierce storm), remove any defences or hit points.
• Static Initiative: if your hazard reacts at fixed
intervals, consider using a static initiative bonus.
• Passive Stealth: If your hazard is intended to use
stealth or go undetected for a period of time, make a
note of its passive stealth.
• Salvage: Add any valuable materials can be salvaged
from your hazard (gemstones, gold, precious metals,
special herbs, etc.).
Your hazard is now ready to be used in an encounter!
Mix-and-match hazards with monsters to create a
range of exciting encounters for your campaign.

 Lifelinked: Divide any damage or healing you would

Lifelinkers
A lifelinker is a special type of combatant that's
spiritually, physically, mentally, or magically linked with
one or more creatures. Through their lifelink, these
creatures share any damage or healing they take in
equal measure—they rise as one and they fall as one.
There are five basic categories of lifelinker, each with
a particular theme and combat style: entwined,
fractured, fused, hivemind, and tethered.
Lifelinker Categories
Type Description
Entwined A group of spiritually-connected creatures.
Fractured A singular creature with many separate parts.
Fused A group of physically-connected creatures.
Hivemind A group of mentally-connected creatures.
Tethered A group of magically-connected creatures.
take by the total size of your lifelink. Each other
lifelinker then receives the same amount of non-
preventable damage or healing. If you die, you are no
longer lifelinked.
 Opportunist: When you make an attack of opportunity,
you have advantage.
BONUS ACTIONS
 Defensive Stance (Cooldown 3): You gain +2 AC and
advantage on one saving throw of your choice until the
end of your next turn.
ACTIONS
 Mind Spike: Melee: +9 to hit, reach 5 ft., two creatures.

THE LIFELINKER PATREON.COM/GIFFYGLYPH


B e Entwined
Entwined lifelinkers are spiritually connected to each
other. These are your empaths and your soulmates—
creatures who share one sensitive heart.
• Three clerics are spiritually entwined, bound
together by their sacred battle oaths.
• A druid is spiritually entwined with the forest
animals, sharing in their pain.
• Two high elves battle side-by-side, spiritually
entwined after centuries of life together.
C e Fractured
Fractured lifelinkers are a single creature with multiple,
independent body parts. These are your gigants and
colossals—monsters that can't be fully represented with
just one body.
When you want to threaten every part of the
battlefield with a single enemy, consider a fractured.
• A fractured, raging dragon with four parts: head,
body, wings, and tail.
• A fractured, lethal trap room with five parts: three
flame towers, a crusher, and a power core.
• A fractured, hovering gunbot with three parts: rotors,
body, and artillery.
A e Fused
Fused lifelinkers are physically connected to each other.
These are your monstrosities and abominations—
creatures who share one compound body.
• Five giant rats have been fused at the tail to form a
ravenous, conjoined rat king.
• An aberrant monolith dissolves into 4 conjoined,
gibbering mouthers.
• An artificer has protected her workshop with 4
physically-interlinked traps and hazards.
D e Hive
Hive lifelinkers are mentally connected to each other.
These are your psions and your telepaths—creatures
who share one awakened mind.
• A trio of psionics share their thoughts and pain when
close to their hive brain.
• A wizard is mentally connected with his familiar,
sharing thoughts, feelings, and wounds.
• An artificer is mentally connected with her trio of
awakened golems.
PATREON.COM/GIFFYGLYPH
GIFFYGLYPH.COM    
E e Tethered
Tethered lifelinkers are magically or situationally
connected to each other—typically through a spell, a
magic item, or simple proximity.
• Four bandits are tethered through a special,
enchanted amulet they each wear.
• A knight leaps atop his horse and (while mounted)
becomes tethered to the mount.
• A dying warlock casts a spell to tether his life pool
himself to the nearest player.
Making a Lifelinker
You can turn any scaling monster into a lifelinker with
these two steps:
Define a Lifelink
First, create a lifelink and add some creatures. By linking
together different types of combatant, you can create a
variety of challenges—for example:
• Unity: Link creatures with similar HP and defences.
• Target: Link one creature with low HP and high
defences to creatures with high HP and low defences.
• Weak Point: Link one creature with high HP and low
defences to creatures with low HP and high defences.
Apply the Lifelinked Trait
Finally, apply the following trait to each lifelinker.
Lifelinked
Any level, rank, or role
Divide any damage or healing you would take by the total
size of your lifelink. Each other lifelinker then receives the
same amount of non-preventable damage or healing. If you
die, you are no longer lifelinked.
A mindwarden is hit by a fireball which (after applying
fire resistance) deals 12 fire damage.
Because the mindwarden is lifelinked with 2 other
entities, it only takes 4 (12/3) fire damage. The other two
lifelinkers then suffer 4 non-preventable fire damage.
Targeting Lifelinkers
Each lifelinker is an individual entity and can be targeted
as such, sharing their damage in equal measure with
each other. This makes lifelinkers especially susceptible
to area-of-effect spells and abilities—so beware!

This chapter introduces 18 new conditions you can
use to create new abilities and features.
Severities
Not every condition is a life-threatening calamity—some
are a mere hindrance, others a looming threat. There
are three severities: common, uncommon, and rare.
• Common conditions can be easily inflicted and—for
the most part—easily undone. These conditions
complicate life but don't necessarily threaten it.
• Uncommon conditions can apply more serious
penalties, restrict a small range of actions, or compel
you to act in particular ways. These conditions can
quickly escalate—so watch out.
• Rare conditions can rob you of your agency, remove
you from play, or put you at a significant risk of
death. These conditions are a major hindrance and
should be countered as soon as possible.
Use a range of severities to create new, surprising
condition effects for your scaling monsters.
Introducing Conditions
When you introduce new conditions into your game, be
sure to inform your players what they are and how they
work—the more people that understand your
terminology (i.e. "slowed"), the better the experience.

any ability check to interact socially.
Swarmed
Uncommon Condition
• You move as if in difficult terrain.
• Attack rolls against you have advantage, and your attack
rolls have disadvantage.
Transformed
Rare Condition
• You are physically changed into a new form.
• Your hit points and attributes are unchanged.
• Your form dictates the actions you can take. You can't
speak, cast spells, or take actions that require hands.
• Your gear melds into your new form. You can't activate,
use, wield, or benefit from your equipment.
Krazak was annoyed with himself. He really should have
known better than to drink that potion without checking
it first—but no. Now he was stuck as a polymorphed
frog for at least the next hour. Just great.
Vulnerable
Uncommon Condition
• You gain vulnerability to a particular damage type or, if
you have immunity, it is reduced to resistance.

Randomizing Damage
T his supplement uses static, average
values when describing features such as hit points
and damage—static numbers are much easier to work
with when crafting attacks and making new monsters.
But what do you do if you want to add some variety
to your hit points and attack damage—or you just really
like to roll dice?
This chapter describes how you can convert static
numbers into randomized dice rolls.
Static to Random
To create a randomized roll from a static value, just
follow these three simple steps:
Choose an Average Result
First, choose a number to act as the average result for
your random dice roll.
You can turn any static number (typically hit points
or damage) into a random roll, and you can randomize
either all of or part of the total amount.
Gannimor Strax is a ferocious orc pit-fighter who dual-
wields a battle axe and dagger in battle. As a 5th-level
elite striker, the orc has a base damage of 14.
The GM wants to randomize Gannimor's damage and
starts to create rolls for the orc's axe and dagger
attacks—both with a target average of 14.
The GM could randomize the orc's hit points using
the same process, but chooses not to—they decide that
it wouldn't add any noticeable variety because
Gannimor is already one-of-a-kind.
RANDOMIZING DAMAGE
Choose a Random Range
Now decide how unpredictable you want the result to be
—the more chaotic, the bigger the dice you roll and the
wider the range of possible results.
There are 7 basic categories to choose from: accurate
(d4), predictable (d6), reliable (d8), irregular (d10), volatile
(d12), wild (d20), and chaotic (d100).
Gannimor is reckless with his axe and precise with his
dagger. To reflect this, the GM opts for volatile (d12) axe
damage and accurate (d4) dagger damage.
Create a Randomized Roll
Finally, look through the Dice Rolls table to find a
suitable dice roll for your range and target average.
The GM finds two dice rolls that are a good fit—2d12
(averaging 13) and 4d4 (averaging 10). Gannimor's
profile is updated with two attack options:
• Attack (Axe): 2d12 + 1 (14 - 13)
• Attack (Dagger): 4d4 + 4 (14 - 10)
Wild Swings
Rolling big dice for your damage (d10s, d12s, etc) is
exciting but can lead to some swingy combat. Use a
variety of dice options to keep things interesting and
control the tempo of your monsters.

Scaler Templates
T o help you build a new monster fast, this
chapter contains a set of pre-made templates for
every scaling combat rank and role between levels 0-30.
Use these templates to stat out your scaling
monsters before fleshing them out with special traits,
attacks, and utilities.
Using a Template
To use a scaler template, follow these steps:
Choose a Level/Rank/Role
First, choose a combat level (0-30), then a combat rank
(minion, grunt, elite, or paragon), then a combat role
(controller, defender, lurker, skirmisher, striker, or
supporter). Find your specific template in the tables
provided.
Rank your Ability Modifiers
Get the ability modifiers for your template and assign
them to your six abilities in order of preference: STR,
DEX, CON, INT, WIS, and CHA.
Pick your Saving rows
Now choose a number of trained saving throws (TST).
The GM wants to build a 4th-level grunt striker. First,
they assign the six ability modifiers in order of
preference (STR +4, DEX +1, CON +4, INT −1, WIS −1,
CHA +1). Then, they choose two trained saving throws—
in this case, Strength and Wisdom.
SCALER TEMPLATES
Overriding Attributes
Modifiers listed in these templates are recommended
averages and can be adjusted. If it doesn't make sense
for your monster to have a particular ability, either a) set
the modifier to −5 or b) set the score to 0 (automatically
fail ability checks/saving throws).
When in doubt, this supplement uses the following
to determine if an ability is appropriate:
• Strength (STR): I can physically affect/resist things.
•
•
Dexterity (DEX): I can move and/or aim at things.
Constitution (CON): I can endure pain/damage.
• Intelligence (INT): I can make decisions/deductions.
• Wisdom (WIS): I can sense or search for things.
• Charisma (CHA): I am self-aware and/or influential.
Set your Combat Stats
Now apply your other combat stats—AC, HP, attack
bonuses and DCs, average damage, etc.
Finishing Touches
Now apply the following to finish your basic profile:
• Initiative: Gain this initiative bonus.
• Speed: Apply the speed modifier to your movement.
• Skill: Gain training in perception or stealth.
• Paragon Features: Apply any paragon
power/defences.
Once you have the basic attributes in place, consider
adding some scaling features (p38), battletide effects
(p53), or archetypes (p57).

FAQs
T his section lists at some of the
frequently asked questions regarding Giffyglyph's
Monster Maker. If your question isn't answered here,
feel free to contact me.
The Basics
A Is this o ficial material?
No. This an unofficial compilation of new rules,
templates, and mechanics intended to supplement
official material found in 5th Edition books.
B Does this replace 5th Edition?
No. This modular supplement doesn't outright replace
5th Edition material, but provides you with advanced
tools to create your own monsters and encounters.
You can use these new scalers alongside official 5th
Edition monsters, or use them exclusively in your
encounters—whatever works best for your GM style!
C Why did you write this?
I like to improvise a lot when I GM, so I need a quick and
reliable way to generate fiction-first/combat-ready
monsters with a (reasonably) predictable threat level.
Unfortunately, I found this needlessly difficult in 5th
Edition—so I returned to 4th Edition for inspiration and
wrote this supplement for my own 5e games.
With standardized monster math, straightforward
encounter rules, and varied combat types (roles, ranks,
etc), any 5e GM can now build fun, flexible encounters
in seconds. I hope these tools, templates, and tables
make the time you spend building encounters much
more enjoyable—good luck!

Scalers
A Why are they called Scalers?
This supplement uses the term "scalers" to refer to
scaling monsters—i.e. entities that have a combat level,
a combat rank, and (optionally) a combat role. This is to
distinguish them from statics:
• Scaler: Your attributes scale up or down easily when
you change a core dial (level, rank, or role).
• Static: Your attributes are hardcoded or arbitrarily
decided (i.e. official 5th Edition monsters).
This terminology can also be applied to features (a
scaling feature vs a static feature) and encounters (a
scaling encounter vs a static encounter).
B How are Scalers calculated?
This supplement uses an approach coined by Song of
the Blade in their 2015 article "Improved Monster Stats
table for 5th Edition", aligning monster hit points and
damage with the progression of the fighter class.
A single grunt should be a one-to-one match for a
fighter of equal level—it should die after four attacking
actions, or kill the fighter with four attacking actions.
This underlying math is then augmented with combat
roles and combat ranks (as coined by 4th Edition) to
create a range of easy, reliable templates.
C Why use Scalers?
Though outwardly similar to traditional 5e NPCs, scalers
are built to serve a specific purpose—combat.
Quick to Build
Scalers are designed to be quick and easy to build—just
choose three modifiers: a combat level, a combat rank,
and (optionally) a combat role. That's it!
Predictable Power
When you create a monster, it's important to know with
some certainty how lethal it may be. Scaler combat levels
are designed to scale alongside character levels:
• Damage: A grunt should defeat a fighter (of the same
level) with 4 average damaging attacks.
• Durability: A fighter should defeat a grunt (of the
same level) with 4 average damaging attacks.
With this simple 4 4 damage/durability power
mapping, you can have more confidence in your
monsters and their potential encounter impact.

Easy to Customize
If a 4 4 power mapping doesn't suit your campaign, you
can simply apply simple a modifier to your scalers—
+10% hit points, -20% damage, etc. This is an easy way
to change the tone of combat—for example:
• Safe Combat (4 2): +0% dmg, -50% hp.
• Faster Combat (3 3): +33% dmg, -25% hp.
• Risky Combat (3 4): +33% dmg, +0% hp.
• Lethal Combat (2 2): +100% dmg, -50% hp.
Simple Encounter Design
Building an encounter with scalers is incredibly easy—
just add one level-matched grunt for each player
character in the party. That's it!
But it's just as easy to mix things up by switching
around a few combat ranks. As a general rule of thumb:
• 4 minions are worth one grunt.
• One grunt is a match for one player character.
• One elite is worth 2 grunts.
• One paragon is a match for an entire party.
With these guidelines in hand, you can build a range
of varied encounters in no time at all.
Big Boss Battles
Paragons are designed to face an entire adventuring
party all by themselves, serving as the centerpiece for
fully-featured big boss battles.
With a wide array of scaling features and options
(multiple phases, transformations, multi-part bodies,
paragon powers, etc.), you can let the boss be the boss.
Powers, Not Spells
Vancian magic may be a great feature for players, but
it's a bad feature for NPCs—it's slow, it doesn't scale
well, and juggling spell slots is a poor use of your time.
Magical scalers don't use spells or spell slots—with
scaling features (p38) and the spellcaster (p57) or
summoner archetypes (p60), you can build and run any
kind of spellcaster you need with zero overhead.
Self-contained Profiles
The scaler profile includes everything you need to
confidently use them in battle—read the stat block and
dive straight into combat.
Improvisation-Friendly
A combat profile isn't an exhaustive list of abilities—it's
just a starting point. If you want to do something special
that's thematic and makes sense, improvise it!
Scalers tell you their fundamental combat stats
upfront (attack bonuses, DCs, damage, etc.) to help you
improvise actions quickly, easily, and accurately.
Asymmetrical Design
Scalers aren't built in the same way as player characters
—it's inefficient to micromanage equipment and spells
for every monster.
With decoupled combat stats, scalers let you can
focus on the important things—making fun monsters
and great encounters.
FAQS
 GIFFYGLYPH'S MONSTER MAKER
D Why don't Minions have 1 HP?
In 4th Edition, minions had only 1 hit point—any
successful attack would defeat them. However, this
tends to be a bad idea in 5th Edition.
Some spells (such as Sleep) distribute their effects
based on hit point totals—if minions have only 1 HP,
these basic spells can be greatly overpowered and take
out crowds of minions all-too-easily. To that effect,
scaler minions have a severely reduced hit point pool
that should—in practice—mean they are defeated within
one attacking action.
E Can I share my Scalers?
Yes. If you create a scaling monster of your own design
using this supplement, you can share it freely. Post it
online, include it in your homebrew, put it in an
adventure, print it—your content is your own.
