Rules (wip):
I love the strange monsters from AD&D. Its fun to see how weird they got. I am a big fan of having lots to draw on for inspiration
Agreed. It's why I have all of Kobold Press's supplemental monster books. Variety is the spice of life, and I'm constantly trying to find ways to make combat more engaging than just slugging it out with my players. Quirky stat blocks help me come up with scenarios.
Supplement books or make your own monsters. I love making a custom monster. I had really fun encounter with a custom ooze that could use engulf as a legendary action. Fun to have it chase the players around the map
