Monsters of Magic - The Eldrazi
And now for something a little different. In addition to doing Yokaitober this year, I'm also doing all of my normally scheduled weekly releases. While it can be a little difficult to balance both, it's going well so far, and I'm excited to finally be able to show off some more eldrazi. It's been quite some time since the last eldrazi I converted, and I think at this point I've got a better handle on how to make them a balanced challenge.
If you'd like to help support me and get early access to my content, as well as the ability to vote in polls and see additional patron-exclusive content, you can sign up on my Patreon for as little as $2/month. I often release several new monsters, magic items, spells, and more each week, so don't miss out on an opportunity to keep up with it all!

Airmark's Guide to Planar Vegetables: Pandemonian Tumbleweed
Tumblr media
Plants native to the Windswept Depths of Pandemonium have much in common with those from the Elemental Plane of Air: minimal soil needs, extreme resistance to trauma, and radial symmetry so that no matter which way is up, the plant can survive. The pandemonian tumbleweed is a prime example, bearing some major similarities to the urchin bush discussed earlier.
Mindless and composed primarily of gnarled, thorny stalks with pale brown bark, pandemonian tumbleweeds take the majority of their nutrients from unknown sources. While the plants can and do feed on blood through hollow thorns when they make contact with animal life, the desolation of their home plane argues strongly against this being their primary form of nutrition. If it was, surely they would have gone extinct by now, as Pandemonium is notoriously the most lightly-inhabited Outer Plane in existence.
Capable of covering dozens if not hundreds of miles a day with their windblown propulsion mechanism, pandemonian tumbleweeds only truly stop moving when wedged into a space too small for them to pass through. It is then when they reproduce, dying and allowing the seeds they store in the hard nut at their center to germinate using the parent plant's remains as fertilizer. Although capable of self-locomotion to avoid just this situation, almost all of the pandemonian tumbleweed I observed undergo this cycle when naturally trapped by the action of the wind and tight tunnels.
These huge wanderers are not receptive to speak with plants, and demonstrate a lack of essential intelligence when spoken to. Unsurprisingly, they were difficult for me to follow in conversation, moving from subject to subject seemingly at random and employing extremely varied vocabulary. Much of the conversation described wind currents, however, so perhaps there is an understanding of their native environment's weather to be gained by speaking with them.

You know what a prepared party expects in the actic? Remorhaz, there's only like 5 creatures native only to the arctic. You know what NO party expects in the middle of the desert? Remorhaz, it literally says in the description that they generate so much heat they'd drop without the arctic chill. But I had the idea of making one purely for the idea of it scorching tunnels of glass around it. Glass Remorhaz use that heat-expelling property that normal ones do, except they don't have an internal furnace and in fact are otherwise extremely well insulated. So thier insides are icy-cool, perfectly comfortable since they were already cold-proof, and great for piercing through the resistances of native creatures. Glass is great at retaining heat though, and they were already naturally heatproof, so thier outsides accumulate so much heat they gain a sort of heat-haze around them. Throw in Frosted glass isn't just a pun, it's transluscent but eliminates glare, and you have the perfect ambush predator. I imagine one nesting in a desert temple, waiting until an adventurer stumbles into it then blasting the whole group. The sand in its territory would glitter with tiny glass shards from old tunnels collapsed from sandstorms, a sign locals watch for. perhaps the party finds these strange glass tunnels, and finds a den of babies. A wounded Remorhaz might retreat into its tunnels, funneling the players in for a blast. watch the fear in the wizards eyes when they launch a spell and you describe the tunnel beginning to collapse, giving them juuuuuust enough time to book it. To learn more about Remorhaz proper, check out my video on the subject!

My favourite Caleb Widogast moments:
"I was so sure. I was SO sure... Until I wasn't"
Caleb interacting with Lucien
Caleb being taught spells by Essek
Essek saying "They need you" when we all know it was an "I need you"
Trent using sending on Caleb after they escape
Molly kissing Caleb on the forehead
Yasha shaving Caleb
(Liam physically scratching his arms to show us Caleb's nervous habits)
When Essek (A WIZARD) pulls a HUMAN (Caleb) out from under a BUILDING
Look, his whole personality of a singed cat (similar to wet cat, slight difference) just makes me so interested in his character i focus on him for weeks at a time then forget abiut him for a month

Yokaitober, Days 9-12
Helping to shorten the gap between the current date and how many yokai I've actually posted, here's Days 9-12 of my Yokaitober project. This set includes the kamakiri, a goblin cosplaying Edward Scissorhands who's obsessed with cutting hair; the shirime, a spooky faceless ghost that's desperate to flash you its eye; the tenjoname, a naked monster covered in paper strips who licks the grim off your ceilings; and the maikubi, the severed heads of three samurai who just couldn't stop fighting.
If you're unfamiliar with Japanese folklore, this assemblage of creatures probably reads like a demonic fever-dream. If you have even a passing knowledge of yokai, then you know these are really just par for the course. Okay, so maybe the shirime is pretty out there, but it's also not the strangest example of Japanese humor.
Regardless of whether you find these yokai creepy, funny, or unexplainably cute, they're all here for you to use in your own games of 5e. If you're interested in more yokai like these, as well as other 5th edition homebrew including subclasses, magic items, other monsters, and more, be sure to check out my Patreon. You can choose to support me there for as little as $2/month, or even just sign up to follow me and get alerts about when I release new stuff.

Airmark's Guide to Planar Vegetables: Smokecatcher
Tumblr media
As the Elemental Plane of Ash scarcely has anything that resembles ground, flora native to the plane must adapt to an aerial lifestyle. Smokecatchers are one such plant, riding the winds and floating on aerials due to adaptations to their leaves filling them with lighter-than-air gas.
These bulbous plants have adapted rock-hard stems and specialized leaves for crude flight, while their russet flowers are used for trapping prey in a manner similar to pitcher plants found elsewhere on the planes. Their colors range from dark, burnt orange flecked with grey and red to an ashen grey with hints of color around the edges of their leaves, as if they were burning very slowly.
Smokecatchers, as their name suggests, are predatory; they gain the larger portion of their nutrients from capturing smoke elemental creatures in their roots, then storing them in specialized flowers to break them down with digestive acids. As a consequence smokecatchers are usually mostly harmless to visitors to the Great Conflagration, save for the potential danger to their mounts.
Smokecatchers can be cultivated on other planes, but their natural heat tolerance and nutritional requirements means they are most at home in other fiery environs; Gehenna and Muspelheim in Ysgard have developed introduced populations. Smokecatchers reproduce by spore, which they grow and spread approximately twice a year, when the wind conditions are right for distribution.

Grimer and muk, born of toxic runoff to drown humanity in our environmental sins. In the pokemon world they seem to have been created and then brought to near extinction in the span of decades by switching to green energy. That, and creating a more general version that eats landfill trash. There's not much in the way of oil and such in 5e, it'd probably be magical runoff and waste. No funny dex entries to mention this time, so lets jump into the encounter ideas. - Maintenance of the sewers has been handled by the city's kobolds for decades, but one day a few injured scramble out in sprint into the night. Their alchemist's experimentation on the wastewater had given it life, and it's multiplying... - The druidic circle has grow tired of the city's reckless waste. A ritual to summon a red moon has commenced. Soon their sludge will smother the city with thier sins. It begins with a grand fire surrounding the city, and walls of stone to contain it. The city will suffocate, and the remaining grimer will be contained until the starve. - Alolan grimer and muk were introduced by transmutation wizards centuries ago, and have long been used as a safe way to dispose of waste. This year was hard however, famine and recession have left the thriving waste disposal team with little to eat. The town wakes to find houses being torn apart and consumed, plank by plank. If the herd is thinned this could end badly.
