Scalamagdrion

At a Glance
A dragon.
Scalamagdrions are described as dragons from another Prime, or at least a hidden location. They are sought by the mind flayers of Oryndoll, following the discovery of ancient lore which suggests that they are prime candidates for ceremorphosis.

An undead.
DM’s Notes
This is a template which can supposedly be applied to any living creature. This means any aberration, animal, dragon, fey, giant, humanoid, magical beast, monstrous humanoid, ooze, outsider, plant, or vermin. You obviously can’t put this template on a construct, elemental, or undead, since they’re not alive. However, oozes and plants don’t make sense either, and it’s questionable whether it should be possible to apply it to fey or outsiders, since (I believe) these creatures are not normally susceptible to being animated as undead.

Crossroads Guardian
This information is intended for use with the Dungeons & Dragons role-playing game.
At a Glance
An incorporeal fey.
These creatures are only encountered at fey crossroads, which makes them pretty bloody rare.

Spectator
This information is intended for use with the Dungeons & Dragons role-playing game.
At a Glance
An aberration and a beholderkin.
Spectators are beholderkin, and therefore pretty much universally hated. However, these creatures are guardians and potentially even friendly… as long as you’re just there to talk.

Slimes
This information is intended for use with the Dungeons & Dragons role-playing game.
At a Glance
Slimes, like molds, are considered hazards rather than monsters, probably because they don’t move (much).
So far this category consists of green slime. The similar flareater is ambulatory and properly considered a monster.
