Night Hags (sometimes literally) just scream ''Dungeons and Dragons'' to us, so we are happy to just bang out this classic a monster once in a while! Night Hags are vile creatures, once proud denizens of the fae wild who's cruel inclinations got them banished to the Grey Wastes, an ever-gloomy hellscape out in the Far Realms. Not that it matters, for they are able to plane shift to freely spread their very own flavour of chaos, obsession and corruption by poisoning creatures dreams, driving them mad and eventually collecting their souls. Of ...

Except as a carrier of disease, a single bat does not usually pose much of a challenge for both fledgling and seasoned adventurers. But add a few hundred or even thousand bats, and you're suddenly confronted with a shrieking inferno of razor claws and pointy teeth, able to gnaw any humanoid the meat from its bones by sheer mass of bodies. Now, regular swarms of bats normally don't show signs of aggression towards beings larger than their insect prey. But in a world steeped in dark magic and beset by evil forces, bats can become dangerous cre...

Commoners are salt of the earth people inhabiting the various hamlets, villages, hovels and huts strewn around any country, kingdom or frontier. They can be barbers, bakers, bar- or beekeepers, hard working and tax paying folks that may welcome adventurers with open arms into the midst of their society or keep a keen eye on any outsider encroaching on their territory, threatening to make the rapidly shortening remainder of their lives more interesting.

Hey tabletop Fans out there,
with the release of our last special Spooktober entry we've arrived at a crossroads - one path leading out of the mist and leading one further inside.
Your feedback would be appreciated as it helps us to align future releases with your interests!
Do you want us to continue working on our interpretations of monsters and NPCs derived from our favourite gloomy bat country or would you rather see us return to generic monsters and statblocks?

The second-to-last entry of our spooky tribute to our favourite vampire-centric D&D 5e module is here! The rattlinf of chains and metallic cling-clang noises coming from the basement where no illusion, as the big bads own suit of armor has come alive to terrorize nosey parties disturbing the slumber of its master. With lightning surging through the unholy metal and the aforementioned chains eagerly dangling from its black-iron frame, our interpretation if the animated armor is even more vicious than the orignal!

The once great Knights of the Order are tragic figures, rust-flaked shades of their former selves, filled only with poisobous thoughts of vengeance and seething hatred. Our Revenant Knight is a tribute to the fallen Order of the Silver Dragon and leans more heaviliy into the tragic nobility of an undead order of Dragon-sworn Knights, with the icy essence of Argynvost still clinging to their ruined armour, in a desperate attempt to shield them from harm even in death. The lingering soul of the Silver Dragon still permeates his brothers in arm...

First Spooktober creation inspired by the Curse of Strahd Adventure, in my oppinion of the best DnD 5E modules available!
Everlasting mist floods the land of Barovia, the cursed realm of Strahd von Zahrovich. Barovia teems with dreadful creatures, most of which are hellbent on making the player's stay in their realm a harrowing one. For Spooktober 2021 we decided to give the iconic Vampire Spawns roaming the crypts and castles of Curse of Strahd a unique spin! The Barovian Vampire spawn is closely bonded to Strahd, who...

Our darkest fears and deepest desires have come to life, as we got contacted by someone we are pretty sure is the vampiric ruler of a mist-wreathed demiplane. Of course we offered to do his bidding.
What does this mean for you?
For Beneos Tokens patreons it means that during the spooky season (meaning: October) we are releasing tokens inspired by the spookiest of D&D content, Curse of Strahd. Maybe some of you are running Death...

IMPORTANT NOTE:
In this week the first version of the animation update for the Beneos Tokens Module goes online. It is not active for all tokens yet so take this as a preperation for the actual release.
What does the module update does?
It switches automatically to different animations based on the action the actor performs. It plays the die animation when reaching 0 hit points and fades to a corpse icon afterwards. It automatically plays the walking animation (if the token has one) w...

Shamans are the spiritual leaders of an orc warhost. They maintain the moral of the troops by conducting bonding rituals and are generally tasked with a wide array of ceremonial duties. Even though they are feared and respected, Shamans often are outsiders, as their reclusive nature and connection to the spiritual world warps them into capricious eccentrics. Most Shamans are not bound to any host, as their true loyalty lies with the shamanistic covens they belong to, often only supporting a host chief when their reign of terror furthers ...

The scratching and scrawling noises of Ghoul Wretchlings in the walls and under the floor boards herald an incoming Ghoul Invasion. In the following nights people disappear from the streets or the safety of their homes, overwhelmed and paralyzed by swarms of the scrawny Ghoul Wretchlings, before being dragged to the underground lairs as nourishment for the advancing main force of ghoulish invaders.

Reef Keepers manifest around hydrothermal vents and venture the sea bed in search of untouched subnautic ecosystems like lush coral reefs or kelp forests, where they guard the native lifeforms against invasive species or destructive unnatural forces. Their true form is hard to discern, as they are overgrown with a thick crust of mineral-rich sediment. This crust acts both as natural armor, as well as a rich source of nutrients for nearby flora and fauna. Reef Keepers are usually docile, but if they consider their chosen protectorate endanger...

Dwarven Kings do not rule by birthright alone, but command respect earned by dilligence, grit and merit. Dwarves are a proud and stubborn folk and while they appreciate the rigid structures of monarchy, they need a reason for why a specific individual should hold the power to rule the grand cave cities, vast mountain halls and stalwart hill fortresses of dwarvenkind. However, if an aspirant to the throne manages to endure the ordeals and rites necessary to claim the title of king, their subjects serve them with unwavering loyalty. Each Dwarv...

Wolves are natures way of reminding humans that their superiority extends only as far as their city walls. Those who still venture forth into the frontiers are wise to fear the wolf, the grey-haired and yellow-eyed incarnation of the hunt. Many tribal cultures worship the wolf as totem animals, venerating them as bringers of swift death and cunning hunters, as well as symbols of unity and cohesion.

The Wulfen Curse is an affliction of the soul. Some humanoids already carry the seed of beasthood with them, nurturing a dark hunger for violence and bloodshed. If they give in to this hunger, the dread curse takes hold, shaping the body in accordance to the soul. Over time the Wulfen comes to detest its humanoid body, the metaphysical affliction of the soul mirrored in the physical realm. They are, however, forever trapped between worlds, for they are neither wolf nor man, but a chimeric soul burdened with an appetite for both the chase and...

The Dragon might be the ultimate mythical creature. Almost every human culture has a being with the shared traits of a snake-like body, mighty wings, supernatural cunning and indomitable might. In some myths and folktales they are benevolent and wise, in most they are cruel and despotic. Our Dragon makes no attempt at being an ambivalent creature, skirting the border of good and evil or trying to paint the picture of a complex and often misunderstood creature. This Dragon is a scaled tyrant, a megalomaniacal lizard corrupted by the arcan...

Not many a creature is as unjustly feared and detested as the Harpyia. Decried as carriers of bad omen, death and evil magic, they have been hunted to near extinction. The remaining Harpyies prefer to nest on storm-wreathed cliffsides and within coastal ravines, seeking safety in isolation. Legend has them born from wind and water, which might explain their affinity to the sea. Colonies, or parliaments, of Harpyies can be often found nesting atop the salt-encrusted masts and rigging of beached shipwrecks. This behaviour unfortunately fur...

Cipactli are the alleged offspring of a reptilian river god feared for his boundless rage. They roam mangrove forests and tropical river banks in packs, behaving very territorial and highly aggressive towards any kind of encroachment. Their social behaviour is suprisingly complex, with them displaying their martial skills through ritualized combat among each other. However, if isolated from its pack, a Cipactli can form an equally strong bond with any creature able to gain the Cipactli's respect by demonstrating superior prowess. Indigenous ...

War veterans, gang members with military experience or nobles who spent a fair share of their youth under the watchful eyes of combat instructors - the Trained Fighter represents all of them and more. They are trained in the art of melee, have seen various combat scenarios and lived to tell the tale. While a rabble of peasants or a gang of highwaymen can be disposed of rather quickly and with little effort, an organized troop of Trained Fighters makes for a varitable fighting force, leading to a complex and tactical encounter for a low or ev...

Horses are half a ton worth of muscle crammed into an elegant and timeless frame. They are fast, they are not particularly intelligent and they are an essential component of the fantasy genre. In the context of adventuring, Horses are mainly used for travel and battle, although they may as well become trusted and loved companions to the players. This reimagination of the classic Horse embodies a sturdy and valiant creature able to support it's party on arduous voyages as well as dire combat scenarios.

"Exposure to extreme instances of magnetism might cause an as of yet unexplained transformation within Shield Guardians. The docile automatons undergo a rapid evolution, triggering both a physical transformation and a severe change in behaviour. A Polarized Shield Guardian is no longer bound to its master, resisting any attempt of external control with violent means. Their physique adapts to support a construct now geared towards offensive conflict resolution, rather than silent endurance. These creatures are exceedingly rare and, if abl...
