Goblin Vault: Alraune Monster/Race
Added 2018-10-30 15:29:03 +0000 UTCHello, my lovelies! I have a special update for today to the Vault: A commission I got to design a D&D monster based on the creature in The Blossoming Gallows, as well as a race based on a similar premise. The result was a pretty wild ride, and I thought I'd share it, as well as a brief playtest I ran with myself (though I made some modifications to her hypnosis power after finishing the playtest).
The Vampiric Alraune is a very nasty CR 14 monster, and difficult to run, too—you have to be super careful at keeping track of the conditions she inflicts, 'cause she inflicts a lot of slow-creeping effects. Because her main power is "entangle everyone and force them to watch my breasts until they succumb to the pollen", battles can swing on a dime.
The Alraune race is pretty powerful, but a lot of her abilities are flavor or have a cost or risk to using them.
Incidentally, creating this monster kinda made me want to create a "D&D game" Patreon tier.
Note: Disregard the Recharge text on the Essence Drinker ability.

Designing a monster or race is a *lot* harder than a normal Tumblr flashfic. What I was actually thinking was more like a slot where the patrons get to play in one-shot erotic D&D games run by me, using monsters like this one.
