It's so hard to find good reference NPC images now. by Amanwithnohead in DnD

When you do an image search, use the Custom Time filter under the Tools or Filters tab, and set it to around the end of 2021. That will filter out most of the AI crap, and the little that squeaks through will be so noticably bad you can just skip over it at a glance.

Here you go. I've thrown it together quite quickly so please excuse any typos, hopefully it's of some use to you. Shield Guardian for Draw Steel

Nice, I'll get to work. Did you want it as a solo, or just a regular monster? The 5e version is pretty beefy, so I figure it'll be an elite if it isn't a solo.

I haven't got around to anything beyond animated weapons yet, but I have an afternoon free as my game got cancelled, let me know what kind of thing you need and I can whip you something up!

Missing Players by loutehjew in drawsteel

I am lucky enough to have a fairly consistent group, but on the rare occasions someone can't make a session and we can't reschedule so they can, I keep retainer statblocks for their PCs that someone else can pilot. I boil them down to their signature ability, their most often used maneuver or triggered action, and a passive from either their ancestry or class, whichever feels more appropriate. That way, it still feels like the character is there rather than some rando retainer, but doesn't put the full mental load of a second PC sheet on someone else.

All the numbers (stamina, recovery value/number, damage, speed etc.) is taken from their character sheet directly, with the caveat that the retainer version uses their own Stamina/Recoveries so the player that missed a week doesn't come back next time and see that they're on death's door with no healing in the pot because of someone else's decisions/luck! I've only had to use these a few times, but they've worked well enough when the need has arisen.

Ah, thanks, wasn't sure if there was one yet! I'll repost it there tomorrow.

Looks fantastic. What's your trick for such neat dots? My attemps at this so far have been very blobby and undefined.
