What monsters are in the 5e SRD?
The 5e Systems Reference Document includes over 300 creatures: familiar beasts like wolves and bears, undead like skeletons and liches, legendary monsters like ancient dragons and the tarrasque, and everything in between. All appear here with complete stat blocks.
How does Challenge Rating work?
Challenge Rating (CR) estimates how hard a monster is to defeat for a group of four adventurers at the same level. CR 0 means a barely threatening creature; CR 30 is the tarrasque. The XP value on each monster lets you build balanced encounters using the encounter builder tool.
What are legendary actions?
Legendary creatures spend legendary action points to act at the end of other creatures' turns, letting them participate more frequently than ordinary monsters. Many also have lair actions that trigger on initiative count 20, independent of their normal turn.
