Hey Adventurers,
We’re back with another look behind the curtain, this time with something a little smaller… significantly more damp... and maybe a bit sticky.
Not everythin...

Inside the Vault: From Idea to Table - Update 1
Hey Adventurers,
We thought we’d start pulling back the curtain a bit and showing how some of the creatures in Vault of Monsters actually came together. One monster at a tim...

The world of D&D is full of dragons and sentient furniture, but the British Isles are a mystical plethora of wild, haunting, and magical beasts that tell a rich tale of British and Irish folklore. The Vault of Monsters unleashes some of these beasties into your games of Dungeons and Dragons with brand new adventures, playable species and subclasses, and classic British irreverent humour.
Vault of Monsters
Vault of Monsters is a 5e-compatible bestiary inspired by British folklore, regional legends, cryptids, old superstitions, and the wonderfully strange things people have been whispering about for centuries.
Think Dungeons & Dragons meeting British folklore in a rain-soaked lane at midnight, then making the poor decision to follow the lights into the trees.
Inside the book you’ll find original monsters built for actual play: creatures with lore, tactics, encounter hooks, variants, lair details where they fit, and enough story flavour to drop them straight into your campaign without your brain melting out of your ears.
These are monsters for Game Masters who want more than a stat block. Each one is designed to feel like it came from somewhere. A village rumour. A cursed field. A canal nobody walks beside after dark. A moorland shape seen once in lightning and then wisely never discussed again.
The book blends practical 5e design with a very British kind of weirdness: dry, ancient, funny in the wrong places, and faintly damp around the edges... eww
By backing Vault of Monsters, you’ll help us crack open the doors and bring these creatures to print, with original human-made artwork, table-ready writing, and a bestiary that gives your players something fresh to fear, fight, bargain with, or make several poor decisions around.
The Vault is waiting...Best bring a lantern.
British Folklore with a Twist
Unique Monsters: The Vault draws heavily from the tone of British folklore. Discover unique homebrew creatures that can't be found in any official manual, from the sinister Tatty Bogle, the enigmatic Grindylow, and many more.
Detailed Lore: Each entry includes Monster Lore, adding depth to your encounters.
Dynamic Artwork: Our Artist, Nick Ashton of Chicken Monster, has brought each monster to life with stunning illustrations that spark the imagination and set the scene for epic battles.
Ready to run encounters: Unique Encounters for those monsters in a drop-in format, with clear objectives, twists, outcomes, optional complications, plus safety flags and content notes where they help.
