📚 Mythological Creatures

Creatures drawn from real world folklore, mythology and legend — rebuilt as homebrew stat blocks for 5e. Every entry is rooted in genuine myth, from English water hags to ancient gods. Some are warnings. Some are monsters. Some are both.

About This Setting

The world's oldest stories are full of creatures that predate dungeons, dragons and dice — things that lived in the dark at the edge of the village, in the deep water, in the space between the door and the threshold. This collection takes those creatures seriously. Each entry is researched from its source mythology and rebuilt for 5e with mechanics that reflect the lore, not just the stat block. A water hag that requires invitation. A beast that cannot be killed by conventional means. A spirit that remembers every slight. These are not reskinned goblins. They are what the stories said they were.
