Some players might be fine braving darkened depths filled with shades whose innards are being eaten alive by ravenous spiders – but a severely arachnophobic player might not. As well as this, Hell itself also oft involves the worst fears of an individual running rampant. The infernal is irreversibly intertwined with religion – a subject that some players might not want featured in a game. I’ll also be recommending some reading material to assist in the endeavours of anyone wishing to include fiends in their games.īefore we start, however, it’s important to note that this can be a touchy subject.

We’ll be looking at the horrific villainy that fuels combat against the greatest odds – as well as the roleplaying opportunities brought on by the nuances of the devilish in the form of infernal contracts and temptation.

Why are we so appalled by the visage of a winged figure with red skin and cleft hooves? Why would a cultist, or indeed any individual, take a deal that will surely leave them damned? Today I seek to answer these questions with examples of the infernal across popular media to help you create a truly fiendish entity in your game. But whatever hellspawn summoned from that candles-and-pentagram circle could be more than just a horned beast with innumerable Hit Points – these embodiments of sin provoke questions that the celestial radiance of Heaven doesn’t incur. What inspires more terror, and yet more art, than the pits where torment is eternal and ceaseless – governed by alien creatures that are both torturers and prisoners? I’ve always had a fascination with what creativity can be found within the greatest depths of moral depravity that the human mind dare dream – and this grim intrigue finds itself well-nestled into the world of TTRPGs the only scenario as common as a battle with a cave of goblins or a fearsome dragon is a fight against villainous cultists worshipping an evil from the infernal depths. If there’s one thing that is found all throughout popular media, be it modern or ancient, it’s the eldritch mystique of Hell and its denizens. With recent developments at WotC/Hasbro I am considering going back to 2nd Edition.‘Satan Trapped in Frozen Ice’ by Gustave DoreĬontent Warning: Discussion of Body Horror, Demons, Devils, Hell and Religion.

Monstrer manual alphabetical listings, click the creature name and it takes you to the creature.įew if any of the original pictures appear to be in the PDF. That's not enough to downgrade the rating. Lack of this index and hypertext linking it to the books' title pages is the only thing I can find to complain about really. I titled it "Entire collection of all 26 AD&D Second edition Index of books" I saved that as an OpenOffice word processing document in the directory (file folder) with the PDF. There is no such list at the beginning and you will want that to go to the correct book rapidly. (counting the AD&D originals being part of that 20 years)Ĭopy-Paste the text listing of page numbers where each book starts in the document. It took about 20 years for it all to be originally published.
