In updating the classic modules as settings guides and adventures, many of the Aesthetic's Guides refer to and utilize characters and monsters who no longer exist in modern D&D material. This book fixes that by providing statistics for all of the most famous and most obscure characters who appear in the early adventure modules, plus updating many classic D&D monsters for 5e.
Characters within include Fizban the Fabulous, Tika Waylan and Otik Sandath, the powerful Dragon Highlords led by Emperor Ariakas, and even the dreaded Dark Queen Takhisis herself!
Updated mosters include forgotten greats like the Auramvorax, Penanggalen, Kani Dolls and Slicer Bettles, as well as Ansalon-specific creates such as Gully Dwarves, Huldrefolk, the Thanoi and the Draconians!
