Title: Merriod in "Descent' - anyone written up D&D 5e stats for this monster?
Post by: djbii on 17 January 2017, 02:58:22 AM

I opened my old 'Descent' box the other day and rediscovered some minitiatures including two Merriods.

I've been playing D&D 5e and not Descent but I like the figure. I would love to drop one or even both of these on some unsuspecting adventurers but before I try and make my own stats I was wondering if anyone else had given it a go.

The mini would suggest a creature with two attacks. If both hit it's clamped those arms on the side of a PC's head. Next round the PC gets a saving throw or his brain gets sucked through his ears!
Bear in mind sucking brain through orifice is very Mind Flayer so you might want to keep that ability just for those guys? Flayer hound? But then why would the Flayers want their dogs to have all the fun? :)

Sounds like a fun idea :-)

So no stat blocks exist? I was hopping someone made some kind of descent/d&d crossover but I couldn't find anythinbg via google.
