Some person made a list of monsters by AIing a neural network, apparently based on a library of 2e monsters.

I need to email the guy to get the monster stats?

AI just generated numbers, not stats.

Should do that though, would be much harder and more interesting.

Who'll email the guy, get the complete dataset and post it here?

Owlborn needs to be a playable race.

Chromatic Wolves are massively under-CRed. Its "Dood to stone" spell-like is a TPK waiting to happen if you run into it before anyone in the party has Dance of Sack or Shield of Farts.

Dwarf, Giant already seems to be a common joke in D&D webcomics. Even saw a giant gnome once.

Undead Lake Man, Fire sounds pretty metal.
DM: "A zombie appears from the lake. "
Players: "Are we supposed to be afraid?"
DM: "The Zombie is covered in flames and starts throwing fireballs while diving in and out of the water!"

Dragon, Dead is pretty hilarious. "Roll initiative to loot the body!"

Good read all in all, thanks Kaelik!

Dragon, Dead is pretty hilarious. "Roll initiative to loot the body!"

Wizardry: Tale of the Forsaken Land had a neat battle encounter with zombie dragons where the first round you have a chance to flee as it's a corpse, but once attacked it 'awakens' and retaliates.
