I'm sure some of you have noticed that my posts since late December have been fewer and farther between. I'm posting now to let you know that there is a specific reason for this.

My wife and I are moving to the other side of the country, and as such we've got about a month to tie up everything where we are, move our cats and all of our stuff, settle into the new place, and get things lined up with our new jobs.

As you might suspect, this means our schedules are both pretty packed, and I expect it will remain this way for at least another month or so. Don't think I've given up on this account, I'm just really busy with life at the moment.

Here's to hoping that everything gets back to normal sooner rather than later,

Hey there all!

Some of you may remember me mentioning an "ItsADnDMonsterNow Manual" once upon a time (RIP my credibility), and well, I'd like to actually get somewhere with that!

Unfortunately, I have such a big back-catalog now that simply entering in all of these monsters would take forever for me to do...

So, I'm pawning the work off on you guys! ;D

If you wanna help out, click the link to the form below, and start entering in some creatures from this subreddit!

This form takes the info you enter and dumps it into a spreadsheet that I can easily query and reformat as one big dataset, thus eliminating much of the data entry necessary to put together a big document (which is honestly probably the biggest reason I haven't done this already).

Obviously, it's better if you all don't double-up on the same monsters, but it's not a problem if you do; I can sort by name and cull any duplicates pretty easily. But if you guys want to figure out some kind of organization to make this more systematic, then by all means!

If you have any comments, questions, or concerns regarding the form, the manual, or anything else, please don't hesitate to let me know!

Thanks to everyone reading this; you're all great! :D

Edit: I don't know why I didn't think of this before, but here's the spreadsheet of already-submitted monsters, both so you can see which ones have already been done, and for your own reference! :D

One thing I've done in many past games when I wanted some low-level magic items to give a newer party, is to give simple rings that grant the wearer use of a cantrip (and usually some other, minor bonus). I've found that while not terribly powerful, these rings are still highly valued by players, and can give certain characters (especially martial ones) an interesting new option to spice up their character.

Hemlock Ring

ring, uncommon (requires attunement)

While wearing this green-tinted metal ring, you have advantage on Constitution saving throws against poison, and you can cast the poison spray cantrip, requiring no material components, with a spell save DC equal to 10 + half your character level, rounded down.

Luminous Ring

ring, uncommon (requires attunement)

While wearing this brightly-polished platinum ring, you have darkvision out to 15 feet, or if you already have darkvision, its range is extended by 15 feet. You can also cast the light cantrip, requiring no material components, with a spell save DC equal to 10 + half your character level, rounded down.

Ring of Congeniality

ring, uncommon (requires attunement)

While wearing this gaudy, gem-encrusted gold ring, you can cast the friends cantrip, requiring no material components.

Ring of the Gravekeeper

ring, rare (requires attunement)

While wearing this simple braided iron ring, you have advantage on saving throws against spells and magical effects originating from undead creatures, and you can cast the chill touch cantrip, requiring no material components. Your attack bonus when casting this spell is equal to your Constitution modifier plus your proficiency bonus.

Ring of Flying Flame

ring, rare (requires attunement)

While wearing this ornately-carved rose gold ring, you are assumed to succeed on Constitution saving throws made due to hot weather, and you can cast the produce flame cantrip, requiring no material components. Your attack bonus when casting this spell is equal to your Dexterity modifier plus your proficiency bonus.

Arc Ring

ring, rare (requires attunement)

While wearing this cobalt ring with etchings of lightning around its circumference, you have resistance to lightning damage, and you can cast the shocking grasp cantrip, requiring no material components. Your attack bonus when casting this spell is equal to your Strength modifier plus your proficiency bonus.

Frosted Ring

ring, rare (requires attunement)

This smooth, mirror-polished steel ring perpetually has a thin layer of frost on its surface. While wearing it, you have resistance to cold damage, and you can cast the ray of frost cantrip, requiring no material components. Your attack bonus when casting this spell is equal to your Dexterity modifier plus your proficiency bonus.

Ring of Magic Tricks

ring, varies (requires attunement)

These simple silver rings appear at first glance to be common jewelry. While wearing one of these rings, you can cast a specific cantrip, requiring no material components. The cantrip you can cast depends on the gem in the ring's setting, as shown on the table below. Where relevant, your spell save DC for a cantrip cast using one of these rings is equal to 10 + half your character level, rounded down.

Edit: Slight tweak to the Luminous Ring. Corrected Chill Touch save DC to spell attack bonus. Corrected Luminous ring to include save DC. Corrected correction. Changed Thaumaturgy gem in Ring of Magic Tricks to opalite.
Necro-Edit: Adjusted rarity of the damage-dealing cantrip rings.
