The Monster Machine creates monsters for the Dragonhead TTRPG. It works just like the Character Creator, especially by way of its interface and the way the tool buttons and the work area operate.

Monster Basics

In many ways a monster is like a very simple character. Click on the New button to get started. Adjust its abilities as needed. Click on Basics and work your way down the button tree, adding to it whatever amuses you. Periodically click on View to see how it will all look once printed out.

Like a character, nearly everything you give a monster will cost a number of experience points. Keep an eye on the XP total beneath the completion button. If you are looking to create something to send up against some 1st to 3rd level characters? Try to keep the monster's level between 1st and 3rd level.

Keep in mind that levels are just a generalization of power. They do not take into account just how well those XP were spent or how powerful the monster will be when encountered in large numbers.

Saving & Sharing

To get your creation to work with the encounter creator you need to mark it as Complete and Save it to the database. Refresh the encounter creator and your new monster will appear in its tables.

Hint! Hitting Ctrl + S does the same thing as clicking Save.
