The sequel to Monstrous Races, Monstrous Races 2 presents player options to play every monster in Volo's Guide to Monsters. Volo's Guide to Monsters includes both new monsters and variations on existing monsters, so Monstrous Races 2 includes new monstrous races and a variety of new options for monstrous races published in the original Monstrous Races.

What is in this document?

49 playable races (every creature in Volo's Guide to Monsters, no exceptions!)
29 subraces
5 templates for player characters
Rules for Tiny player characters and races (They're the same as the ones in the original Monstrous Races), plus new rules for Large, Huge, and Gargantuan players!
1 new general feat
22 new racial feats for races in Monstrous Races and in Monstrous Races 2
3 new backgrounds
5 new magic items
4 new spells
3 appendices with suggestions for campaign, character, and party ideas to make use of monstrous races

You do not need the original Monstrous Races to use most of this document, but owning Monstrous Races will make the design notes make a lot more sense.

Thanks to Rob Twohy and his team, Monstrous Races 2 is now available for the Fantasy Grounds Virtual Tabletop!

Hi there, I love this pdf, but I've noticed some missing parts in some of the statblocks - the Flail Snail for instance has a section for ASI, but no actual stat increases stated, as do the Hag subraces. There may be more but those are the ones that jumped out at me.

Andrew B February 12, 2021 4:03 pm UTC

Big fan of your work, Tyler. You've been the source of some of my favorite player characters thanks to your Monstrous Races additions, and I'm looking forward to MR3. Though with Exploring Eberron and Embers of the Last War out, I can't help but wonder if you've consider making stats for the Quori and all its subraces.

Clark L February 08, 2021 7:17 pm UTC

Hey Tyler, I hope all is well. I love your work on Monstrous Races and MR2. I've seen how you're not sure when or if you can get MR3 based on Mordenkainen's Tome out. I just wanted you to know some of us are still holding out hope for the release. Keep up the good work, friend. I hope things are going well for you.

keigan W September 05, 2020 10:22 pm UTC

Hey, Tyler! Love your work. I assume you probably get this question a lot, but how has progress been going on Monstrous Races 3? And do you have any plans for other content after it's completion?

Tyler K September 05, 2020 10:52 pm UTC

CREATOR

Unfortunately, I haven't made a lot of progress on Monstrous Races 3. Mostly because I've got a lot of other stuff going on in my life, and I just haven't been able to put time into it. Most of the time I would normally put into Monstrous Races has gone into RPGBOT.net instead.

I'm hoping that at some point I can get back to Monstrous Races. But the bar for success on DMsGuild has been raised a lot in the time since I published MR2. When I get back to working on Monstrous Races 3, it's going to be a more serious project and I just don't have the capacity for that right now. I know that there are people waiting very patiently, and I hate to disappoint people, but MR3 likely won't happen for a while if at all.

I am absolutely busting my butt on RPGBOT.net to make all of this a full-time job some day, and if I'm fortunate enough that I can make that happen, MR3 will absolutely happen along with a bunch of other stuff that I'd really like to write, and I'm going to try really hard to make...See more

Thank you for the response! Thanks again, and I hope RPGBOT goes well!

Any advice or suggestions for the Nightwalker? it's a pretty powerful one so I'm not sure how to convert it for a player of mine.

Tyler K September 03, 2020 5:40 pm UTC

CREATOR

First question to ask: What is it about the Nightwalker that your player wants to replicate? They might be happy playing a Shadow, in which case check the stats in the original Monstrous Races.

An easy trap to fall into is looking at a high-CR monster and asking yourself how you can squish the entire creature into a playable race. Generally you can't because a high-CR monster's grab bag of traits will overflow the BP range. Just the Nightwalker's damage resistances are 10 BP, and that doesn't even include the immunities.

As a quick build:
+1 Str, +1 Con (2 BP)
resistance to poison (including Advantage on saves against the Poisoned condition) and necrotic (4 BP)
Darkvision (2 BP)
Natural weapons that deal 1d4 slashing+1d4 Necrotic (2 BP)

Just a shot in the dark, do you have any intent to do a version for Mordenkainen's tome of foes or Eberron? I've grabbed both of these and really enjoy thumbing through them, and would love for the series to be continued.

Tyler K February 12, 2020 5:30 pm UTC

CREATOR

Hi Scott. I get that question a lot! Yes, at some point I'm planning to create more versions of Monstrous Races, including one to cover Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes. Unfortunately, I don't know when that's going to happen.

Robert B December 31, 2019 9:26 pm UTC

Any chance you could adapt this to FG (Fantasy Grounds)?

Tyler K December 31, 2019 11:32 pm UTC

CREATOR

I'm working with Rob Twohy and his team to get Monstrous Races 2 converted. I can't say for certain when they'll be done, but I'll reply to this thread as soon as the product page goes live!

Robert B January 01, 2020 12:42 am UTC

I found a Module that doesn't have an Author attached to it, could I be able to get it converted to FG? Would I have to pay someone or is it a community thing?

Tyler K January 01, 2020 4:29 am UTC

CREATOR

Could you clarify what you mean by "Module"? Like, an adventure module? Or like a software module?

Rob Twohy works with the Fantasy Grounds team, and he and his team will convert people's DMsGuild content in exchange for a revenue split. If you want to see a conversion of anything on DMsGuild, try contacting the author and point them to Rob Twohy on Twitter. He's been absolutely wonderful to work with.

I found an alternative ruleset document for 5e, but it doesn't have an author's name on it. How does that work? The author didn't sign his/her own work. Its also not on any website, I found it as a PDF, it has 30+ Pages.

Tyler K January 01, 2020 7:53 pm UTC

CREATOR

You would have to ask Rob about that. Generally it's not a good idea to do anything with someone else's work without their permission because you could be violating someone's copyright. Your best bet is probably to try to figure out who the author is.

Are you going to be making Monstrous Races 3 with the creatures in mordenkainen tome of foes or maybe even other modules/adventures?

I really enjoy your stuff, have used it before and imo it is the best conversions one could do, one of the best books this site and the fanbase have to offer and just really well done

Am looking forward for more, really want to play a Larva mage :v

Tyler K October 24, 2019 4:51 pm UTC

CREATOR

Yes, I will eventually publish Monstrous Races 3, which will cover Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes. Unfortunately, work on MR3 has been really slow, so it's going to be a while before it's completed. In the mean time, I encourage you to use the rules in Monstrous Races 1 to try adapting creatures on your own.

Tyler K October 24, 2019 4:49 pm UTC

Sorry for taking so long to respond. For some reason I don't always get alerts when someone comments on my products.

The Oblex is published in Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes, so it will be included in Monstrous Races 3 when I eventually get around to finishing it.

Hey there! Been using both books for a campaign or two as of late, and I have to say that, respectfully, these books are so good I struggle to describe them without slipping into profanity. They're just so well thought out, so well put together, and so satisfying to use that the excitement tends to overwhelm a bit whenever I attempt to describe them! Having recently begun to DM, I have even managed to put together a few oneshots/campaigns based on the contents of these books.
Eagerly awaiting any future content, but remember; No Worries, No Hurry

(Oh! And, prolly meaningless, but I thought that perhaps I should add that I myself have actually since converted a creature or two into races, using this book as a guide)

Tyler K August 13, 2019 8:41 pm UTC

CREATOR

That's really great to hear!

Any stories you'd care to share? Favorite races? Mechanics you've had trouble with?

Jake M November 11, 2019 6:23 pm UTC

PURCHASER

Aye! Sure, and sorry for the delay!

In a campaign with some coworkers, I made a Gnoll forge cleric named "Grengaal," who talked and dressed a little like an elvis impersonator. He was a beloved member of the party, who specialized in constructing things out of a mix of metal and organic materials, his best work being a facial prosthesis for a friend of his, made from bits of an old iron furnace and a warg's jawbone.

In another campaign with another group, I had a manticore barbarian named "Kull," who has recently begun to look like the biggest softy you've ever seen (on numerous occasions he has attempted to hide from "danger" behind much smaller creatures, and has been known to enjoy the odd tea party). He has recently started to develop a crush on (who else?) the party's bard.

In a campaign I run myself, one of our players is "George George." George George came about when, somehow or another, a Great Old One's power seems...See more

Mechanically, none of these races have yet given me or my players, any trouble at all, thanks to good balancing and clever builds/parties.

As for a favourite? That's hard to say. I love the mechanics behind the regeneration mechanics for trolls and (even more so) hydras, and I'm a big fan of how the shape-shifting creatures were managed. Most all of the races here feel like their powers and abilites have been included in a fashion that's true to the nature of the creatures themselves. I especially like how most shapechangers, like barghests (perhaps my favourite but I'm a bit biased) and jackalweres aren't just given a dispassionate "once-per-long-rest single-form polymorph," but are instead made to feel like their inhumane selves, and that transforming is inherent to their nature.

All in all, just top notch work!

Tyler K November 11, 2019 6:55 pm UTC

CREATOR

That's really high praise, Jake, and I really appreciate you sharing so much. Many of the mechanics you mentioned were big experiments since I haven't seen anything similar attempted, and I'm thrilled to hear that you like them.

William O July 11, 2019 3:57 pm UTC

I might be blind, but it seems the Elder Brain's description says it has Cunning, but isn't in it's traits

Tyler K July 14, 2019 10:15 pm UTC

CREATOR

Shoot. I'll get that fixed and post an update soon.

William O July 11, 2019 1:18 am UTC

My play group has #1 and we just realized this exists, which is exciting because it means I actually can play an Elder Brain character. And you said you are working on #3 for MTOF, which means I can actually play as a Star Spawn! By one questions is if you are planning on doing other sourcebooks? Like, being able to play as a Nightveil Specter from Guildmasters Guild to Ravnica sounds absolutely amazing...

Tyler K July 14, 2019 10:14 pm UTC

CREATOR

I would absolutely love to do that, and given enough time I absolutely will. I'm planning to do a bundle of smaller PDFs covering the handful of monsters included in each of the adventures, and I absolutely want to do a Monstrous Races of Ravnica. But MR3 has been slow going and I'm working on some other time-consuming projects (I write RPGBOT.net, for example), so I can't make any guess how long it will take me to get to those.

Adam A February 25, 2019 2:17 am UTC

PURCHASER

I'm so happy that you made a sequel for Volo's. The monstrous races pdfs you make are some of my favorites here on the DM's Guild.

Just so you're aware, the entry for Cave Fisher doesn't have any stat increases listed, and Flail Snail doesn't have what the language you know stated.

Tyler K April 08, 2019 3:50 am UTC

CREATOR

Sorry for the delayed response, Adam. DMsGuild has been really weird about sending me notifications of new comments lately.

Thanks for spotting those errors! I'm uploading updated files now with both of those issues corrected.

Biróg L December 22, 2018 8:41 am UTC

So I have a question, does this book expand on the Race Builder appendix of the previous volume with more options? I've been working on a lot of homebrew races and having more sorts of abilities analyzed helps a lot, especially as points of reference for weirder traits.

Tyler K January 13, 2019 4:52 am UTC

CREATOR

Excellent question!

Yes and no. Monstrous Races 2 does not include any new content for the Race Builder rules presented in the original Monstrous Races. However, the current version of Monstrous Races includes all of the new racial traits I used to build the races for Monstrous Races 2. So if you already own Monstrous Races, go download a fresh copy and you have the latest and greatest version of the Race Builder rules!

Tyler K April 10, 2019 5:45 pm UTC

CREATOR

I know people have been waiting a long time, and I want to assure everyone who's watching that Monstrous Races 3 will happen eventually. But Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes includes a lot of content, and the monsters are considerably more complex than those in previous sourcebooks, so adapting them is taking much longer. I'm also sidetracked by some other projects (I run RPGBOT.net, and I'm working on a couple adventures).

But since someone asked for a specific race, I'm happy to oblige. If you're not specifically interesting in the Oblex, at the very least take this as an example of why MR3 is taking so long. I was forced to split the racial traits into two posts to get past the DMsGuild character limit, and I didn't even include the design notes. The total Oblex race entry is over 5000 words, and that's just a single race.

---

Oblex
Oozes twisted by illithid experimentation, seeking to sate a never-ending hunger for the memories and personalities of humanoids victims....See more /> Oblex Traits
Oblex share the following racial traits.
Creature Type. Ooze.
Ability Score Increase. +1 Intelligence.
Alignment. Driven by instincts implanted in them by their evil creators, most oblex are lawful evil.
Size. Your size is tiny.
Speed. Your base walking speed is 20 ft.
Amoeboid. Your body is a gelatinous, amoeboid form. You are unable to wear armor. You have no arms or hands, and are unable to wield weapons or wear shields, and cannot use items which require manipulation, including spellcasting foci, wands, tools, etc. You are immune to the deafened, exhaustion, and prone conditions.
Aversion to Fire. If you take fire damage, you have disadvantage on attack rolls and ability checks until the end of your next turn.
Blind Senses. You have no eyes, and are blind (and therefore immune to the Blinded condition). You have blindsight 30 ft.
Eat Memories. As an action, you can attempt to absorb the memories and personality of a creature that you can see within 60 ft. The creature must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or suffer 1d8 psychic damage and have its memories drained until the creatures completes a short or long rest, or until it benefits from a greater restoration or heal spell. Constructs, oozes, plants, and undead succeed on the save automatically.
The DC of this saving throw is 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence modifier. This damage increases to 2d8 at 5th level, 3d8 at 11th level, and 4d8 at 17th level.
While memory drained, the target must roll a d4 and subtract the number rolled from any ability check or attack roll it makes. Each additional time that you drain the targets memory while it is currently memory drained, the die size increases by one: the d4 becomes a d6, the d6 becomes a d8, and so on through d10 and d12 until the die becomes a d20, at which point the target becomes unconscious for 1 hour. The effect then ends, and the creature is no longer memory drained. If you later memory drain the creature, the process begins again with the d4 die.
When you drain a creature’s memory, you absorb some of its memories and learn from them, learning a new proficiency or cantrip of your choice selected from those that the creature possessed. This may be an armor proficiency, a cantrip known, a language known, a skill proficiency, a tool proficiency, a vehicle proficiency, or a weapon proficiency. You retain this proficiency for one hour, or until you complete a short or long rest. If you select a language, you may read, speak, and write in the language, speaking with the voice of the creature whose memory you ate and writing in a hand resembling that of the creature. If you select a cantrip, you may cast it normally, using your Intelligence as your spellcasting ability for the cantrip.
You may learn one memory in this way; if you use Eat Memories again, you must replace your previously selected memory with one selected from the new target. You may select the same memory you selected previously, provided that it is still an option.
If you render a creature unconscious by reaching the d20 die, or if you reduce a creature to 0 hit points or kill it with Eat Memories, you may choose to make the memory learned permanent, permanently adding the cantrip known or proficiency gained to your existing knowledge. You may have a total number of cantrips known and proficiencies gained in this way, including the temporary one gained when you use Eat Memories, equal to your proficiency bonus. If you already have a number of permanent memories equal to your proficiency bonus, whenever you use Eat Memories you must permanently lose one of your existing memories to make room for the newly eaten memory.
You may select the same memory more than once. This does not improve the proficiency in any way, but may allow you to speak in different voices in the same language, offers additional options for Sulfuric Impersonation, and allows you to lose either memory when necessary without losing the cantrip or proficiency granted by that memory.
In addition, you gain one of the creature’s Flaws so long as you retain the memory. If the creature has multiple Flaws, choose one at random. If the creature has no Flaws, the Dungeon Master may choose to create one for you, or may give you a Flaw taken from the Long-Term Madness table or the Indefinite Madness table (Dungeon Master’s Guide, page 260). As you absorb the memories and personalities of multiple creatures, their conflicting personalities make you gradually more insane.
For example: A 1st-level Oblex encounters two human commoners (Monster Manual, page 345). Both are restrained, preventing them from escaping the Oblex. The Oblex chooses to use Eat Memories on one, and the Commoner fails the Wisdom saving throw. The Oblex then chooses from the Commoner’s available memories. In this case, the Common knows the Common language, and is proficient with the Club. The Oblex selects to learn the Common language, and adds Common to its list of languages known temporarily. The Commoner entry does not include Flaws, so the Dungeon Master rolls on the Long-Term Madness table, and adds the result to the Oblex’s existing Flaws. Then, the Oblex decides to try the other commoner, hoping to find more memories to choose from. The Oblex uses Eat Memories a second time, losing the temporarily retained memory of the Common language, and choosing again. The second Commoner has the same proficiencies, so the Oblex again chooses the Common language, gaining a newly generated flaw from the Long-Term Madness table or the Indefinite Madness table at the Dungeon Master’s discretion. The Oblex then decides to use Eat Memories on the second Commoner until it reaches 0 hit points, allowing the Oblex to permanently retain its newfound knowledge of the Common language. It then uses Eat Memories again on the first Commoner, choosing to gain Common again, and allowing the Oblex to speak in the voice of either commoner. The Oblex then moves on, looking for something with more interesting memories.

Part 2:

Growth. At 1st level, your size is tiny. At 5th level, your size increases to small. At 9th level, your size increases to medium.
At 13th level, your size increases to large. Your space becomes 10 ft. x 10 ft.
At 17th level, your size increase to huge. Your space becomes 15 ft. x 15 ft. and your reach with your Pseudopod increases to 10 ft.
Ooze Nature. You don’t need sleep. Instead, you enter a restful state, remaining semiconscious, for 4 hours a day. While resting, you can dream after a fashion; such dreams are reflexive mental exercises inherent to your consciousness. After resting in this way, you gain the same benefit that a human does from 8 hours of sleep.
You do not require food or water in the normal sense. Instead, you must eat memories to survive. Using Eat Memories against a creature which fails its saving throw is enough to sustain you as though you had eaten enough food for a full day. If you are unable to eat in a 24 hour period, you instead...See more sustain yourself by losing one of the memories you have currently retained with Eat Memories. If you have no more memories to digest in this way, you begin to starve just as a human would with no food.
Pseudopod. Your unarmed strikes deal 1d4 acid damage and 1d4 psychic damage on a hit.
Spawn. Starting at 13th level, you may break off a piece of yourself to create a new Oblex Spawn (Mordenkainen’s Tome of Foes, page 217). This takes one hour, but the hour may be spent as part of a short or long rest provided that you perform no other activity during the hour-long process. At the end of the hour, select on of the memories you have gained with Eat Memories. You lose this memory, using it to sustain your spawn. The spawn gains the same knowledge that you would have gained from the memory (a cantrip known or a proficiency), and may speak and understand a language if the memory grants it, as well as the Flaw associated with that memory.
The Oblex Spawn created this way is friendly toward you, but is a fully independent creature. You have no direct control overs its actions. When you create the spawn, you may issue instructions to it that will help you eat the memories of one specific creature nearby. The Oblex Spawn carries out these instructions to the best of its ability without taking any actions that would obviously lead to the Oblex Spawn’s death. After completing these instructions, after failing to complete these instructions, after the Oblex Spawn no longer belives the instructions to be valid, or after 24 hours have passed, the Oblex Spawn departs, going off to hunt on its own. The Oblex Spawn remains friendly toward you unless you perform any action which would normally make a friendly creature dislike you. The Oblex Spawn does not view you as a parental figure in any way, as oblex have no such familial tendencies.
You cannot create another spawn in this way until 24 hours have passed.
Sulfurous Impersonation. Starting at 5th level, you may extrude a part of your body to impersonate a creature whose memories you have stolen. As a bonus action, select one of the memories you gained using Eat Memories. If the creature was smaller than you, and of a size no larger than medium, you create a simulacrum of that creature in an empty space within 5 feet of you. If no empty space is available, this action fails with no effect. You may later spend another bonus action to re-absorb a simulacrum created this way.
You may have as many simulacra in existence as you have memories eaten. You may create one simulacrum from each memory. If you attempt to create a simulacrum from a memory which you already have active, the action fails.
The simulacrum appears in all ways identical to the creature whose memory you used to create it, except that it exudes a faint sulfur scent. It appears as a normally healthy version of the creature, so it retains any long-term illnesses or ailments like a missing limb or hunched back, but not any short-term issues like wounds or minor illnesses. It wears clothes typical to that creature, if the creature normally did so. It carries equipment typical to that creature, if the creature did so, but this equipment is purely cosmetic: weapons do not deal damage, armor and shields provide no protection, etc.
Simulacra are treated as creatures of the Ooze creature type. Each simulacrum has hit points equal to your proficiency bonus + your Constitution modifier and AC equal to 10 + your Dexterity modifier. Any bonuses which increase your AC, such as spells or class features, also apply to your simulacra. Simulacra use your saving throw modifiers. Simulacra are immune to psychic damage, and to charmed, frightened, incapacitated, stunned, and unconscious conditions, though if you suffer any of those conditions it may adversely affect your simulacra in some fashion. Simulacra share any damage resistances which you possess, such as damage resistance from a spell or magic item. Effects which target a simulacrum do not directly affect you unless that effect also targets you directly. If a simulacrum is destroyed in any way, you may not create another simulacrum from the same memory until you have completed a short or long rest. The destroyed simulacrum collapses in a pile of amorphous goo, evaporating to nothing over the course of one minute.
You are joined to each simulacrum by a thin, slimy tether. This tether may extend no further than 120 ft., but may bend around corners and obstacles, and can squeeze through any space larger than 1 inch. If the tether is extended beyond 120 ft., either willingly or unwillingly, the tether is broken. If the opening contracts to less than 1 inch, the tether is destroued. The tether is immune to all damage except slashing damage, has 1 hit point, and AC equal to 10 + your Dexterity modifier. The tether is difficult to spot, require a Wisdom (Perception) check against a DC equal to 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence modifier. If a simulacrum’s tether is destroyed in any way, the simulacrum is destroyed.
You are treated as occupying the simulacrum’s space as well as your own simultaneously, and your reach extends from the space of each simulacra. Creatures exiting the reach of your body or the reach of your simulacra may provoke opportunity attacks as normal. Your senses extend through the simulacra, provided that they are functional (if you are blind, you cannot see through your simulacra, etc.).
As an action, you may activate and control your simulacra. You may move each simulacra a distance equial to the original creature’s speed using any movement speeds the creature natively possessed (including flight, etc.). In addition, you may choose one of your simulacra to take an action. The simulacrum can take any action appropriate to its form, it can make a singe attack with your pseudopod, or it can take the Cast a Spell action to cast a cantrip which you know. The simulacrum has Disadvantage on all attack rolls except those made with your pseudopod or as part of casting a cantrip, and is has Disadvantage on Dexterity checks which require fine manipulation such as picking a lock or picking a pocket.
The simulacrum uses your ability scores and proficiencies for all attacks, checks, and saving throws. It may use tools, weapons, armor, and other equipment if its form is capable of doing so. The simulacrum has Advantage on Charisma checks to impersonate the original creature.
Languages. You can understand, read, and write in no languages normally, but may learn languages using Eat Memories.
