Ezmerelda's Encyclopedia of Evil

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Ezmerelda's Encyclopedia of Evil is a monster book in the vein of Volo's Guide to Monsters and Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes, expanding creatures beyond their stat block and exploring ways to turn them into memorable parts of your D&D campaign. Within these pages, you'll find over a dozen chapters on lycanthropes, vampires, lamia, dragons, aberrations, slaad, and more. Each chapter is designed to provide new stat blocks, traits, abilities, and play aids to turn the "boss creature" at the end of the dungeon into a memorable encounter, arc-long antagonist, or world-shaking villain.

Ezmerelda's Encyclopedia Includes:

  • 14 chapters that explore a certain creature type

  • Over 35 new monsters from Challenge 2 to Challenge 30

  • More than 70 alternate creature traits and abilities

  • More than 30 new lair actions and regional effects

  • Material to turn featured creatures into meaningful villains and nefarious antagonists

I just want to point out to you Fantasy Grounds folks that you can import just about anything you want in to FoundryVTT, and set it up the way you want it. :)

Are the Stat Blocks and Text copy-able? I'd like to make sure of that before I buy this.

Will this get a Print On-Demand Treatment? I can't read from screens for very long.

Hey John!

Unfortunately creators on the Guild do not have control over what is offered PoD. In general it is pretty uncommon for Community Created Content to have PoD options.

I had the same issue with another volume I purchased, so I printed double-sided the pages and had FedEx Office bound them into a book for $6.

Anyone else missing the cover? I have checked and re-downloaded several times.

There was a problem originally creating the PDF using a version with the cover and I needed to create an alternate in the meantime. I'll be updating the file in the next day or so to apply any corrections people bring to my attention and to make sure the cover is present in all its glory!

Could you possibly just post the cover as a separate file?

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
