Dc20 Homebrew

So, I noticed a distinct lack of homebrew monsters for Dc20. As a result, I have decided to post some of the state blocks I've made for my campaign (If one of my players is reading this, Be GONE and please don't read this, less ye get spoiled). There will also be some flavor text for all of them. So keep this in mind.

GOBLINS

Goblin tactics: Due to them often being the most acceptable humanoids to do weird genetic and magic experiments on, they have a lot of weird neashes. However, they are shockingly adaptable as a result. Some goblins develop new features in a matter of weeks if the pressure is great enough (And they survive said presser). So, they often try to work together and play off one another. “A goblin alone is a goblin who’s boned” is a saying of theirs that sums up their mentality well enough.

Goblin Loot: Although you can find the normal loot of gear and clothes, if you’re willing to ignore the moral implications of chopping up a sentient creature, there’s plenty you can do with them. For example, their body parts and organs can replace any alchemy ingredient that would be from another humanoid, along with fermenting them you can get some special properties. Like the heart added to a healing potion and enhances it, their bones can be used to help make buffs last longer, the stomach and intestines can lengthen the effect of the ingredients, the brain can even help increase manna reserves. All this, with the catch that all goblins have become slightly poisonous to eat, which can cause hallucinations if eaten in large amounts. Although, others can cook up goblin meat in a grill to craft a delectable goblin flayed stack, tasting like steak mixed with parsley and pork. This is also the excuse of why some countries are classified as plants (Mostly so they can still be harvested). Other goblins have more specialized objects though.

State blocks are listed below.

Cannonball Goblin (Small)

Goblins are strange beings often experimented on in the early days, with these goblins being known to produce an armadillo-like shell along their back. These plates give it extra natural armor and can be used as a bowl if scalped off of them. Alongside that, their interior gas bladder can act as a large-term gas grenade, alongside that gas being able to adapt to any element. Meaning they can be repurposed with fire, frost, electric, poison, holy/unholy, and if you have the right additives, good old-fashioned suffocation damage. Without these additives, these organs act as grenades that deal force damage.
