WotC Update - Design and Development

WotC has posted a new Design and Development column, based on monster concepts. For those wanting to tae a more active part, we can post the concept for the You Craft the Creature aberration.

Also of note is the MM 4 excerpt of the Redspawn Arcaniss, also known as the Burning Ones of Tiamat.

My contribution is as follows:

This creature, twice as tall as a man, seems vaguely humanoid at first glance, but its pale green features and limbs shift in impossible ways, and sometimes seem to disconnect from the body. Its skin vaguely resembles moss and fungi.

As a mastermind, this creature tends to remain just out of melee reach, instead letting its minions work for it. When it does take active roles, it is usually a disruptor of spellcasters, thanks to its wild magic aura.
