Fiend Folio

The Fiend Folio was a 1981 Monster Manual-like book for Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 1st edition. It served to gather up the various monsters that had been submitted to TSR works but not made the MM itself as of its 1978 edition - for instance, kuo-toa, svirfneblin and of course the official full writeup of drow. Most came out of White Dwarf's Fiend Factory as of then. Many of the latter monsters are laughable crap, like the Xvart which sounds like Fart, so have fallen into obscurity or - like the Flumph - notoriety.

But a few gems do appear amongst the dross: usually cited here, Charles Stross' badass Githyanki and Githzerai. We could also shout-out to the Dark Ones, the Creepers and Stalkers. Who knows why later publishers didn't publish stuff featuring those guys, they were fucking sweet.

A 3rd-party company called Necromancer Games vaguely affiliated with White Wolf released a spiritual successor to the Fiend Folio in "The Tome of Horrors", which adapted many, if not all, of these monsters to Dungeons & Dragons 3rd Edition. WotC for 3e did its own Fiend Folio, figuring that was a decent brand for niche monsters - so Caryatid Columns and those Dark Ones were here. Others were brought back for Pathfinder. With the release of Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition, many of these monsters are starting to be revived and return to the spotlight. The Lava Children, Flumph, and Berbalang all entered the canon here, among others. 5th edition also has a new series of PDF supplements called Mordenkainen's Fiendish Folio which updates even more obscure monsters from the original Fiend Folio to 5th edition.

• Tiger fly, a giant wasp with a human face. Males have upper arms that end in sickle like blades and a poisonous sting, and females have a paralyzing sting. They are yet another monster that lays eggs in victims xenomorph style. The trope is definitely getting overused.
• Tirapheg, an extremely weird monster with three heads, three eyes that are all on the same head with the third on the back of the head, three arms with the third growing from the chest, three fingers that are all on the middle arm, with the other two arms ending in blades, three legs, three toes all on the same legs, its mouth located on its chest under the middle arm, and three small tentacles between the middle arm and the mouth.

  • Giant two-headed troll
  • Ice troll

When a vision is destroyed, the illusionary aging becomes real if the victim fails their save. They can be damaged by bless and dispel illusion.
• Vodyanoi, a relative of the Umber Hulk that looks like a fish man instead of a bug. They lack the confusing gaze of an umber hulk, but can summon electric eels.

• Vortex, a small sphere that generates a miniature tornado around itself.

• Witherweed, a plant with venom that drains dexterity and can cause seizures. It is weak against fire, but when it burns it produces smoke that can instantly kill people that inhale it.
• Xill, a four armed monster reproduces by implanting eggs in humanoids xenomorph style. Seriously, we don't need anymore of these. They ambush their victim from the ethereal plane and attempt to either subdue or paralyze them with their venomous claws and grapple them and carry them back to the ethereal plane. They can be warded off with a protection from evil spell and it is extremely vulnerable while it is switching from the material plane to the ethereal and grappling a victim.
• Xvart
• Yellow musk creeper, a plant that sprays victims with mind controlling dust from its flowers which lures them into the plant so it can drain their intelligence. If the victim dies from the intelligence drain, a new flower is added to the plant, but if the victim survives they become a yellow musk zombie.
• Yellow musk zombie, a humanoid that has a yellow musk creeper seed implanted in their brain which allows the plant to control them. They can be restored back to normal using magic, but only if the plant that turned them is killed first. If not cured they will eventually die and grow into a new creeper.

2nd Edition

2rd Edition's version of the Fiend Folio was the 14th volume of the Monstrous Compendium series. A lot of monsters from the previous Fiend Folio returned with expanded and revised fluff. The artwork in this book is also a lot better so a lot of (but certainly not all of) the dumb looking monsters are less so. For some reason, the artwork of several of the monsters are not consistent with their descriptions, such as the volt, which is described the same way as in the previous edition, but the picture looks completely different.

• Aballin
• Achaierai, still stupid looking.
• Adherer
• Algoid, definitely looks a lot cooler now.
• Purple algoid, a new variant that lives in arctic areas. Instead of controlling trees they can talk to crustaceans.
• Al-mi'raj, now has the ability to teleport short distances.
• Apparition
• Caterwaul
• Crabman
• Coffer corpse, the artwork is a huge improvement.
• Dark creeper
• Dark stalker, for some reason he appears to be dressed as a superhero.
• Darter, a blood drinking lizard that can fire it fangs as darts that cause paralysis.
• Denzelian
• Gem dragon
  • Amethyst dragon
  • Crystal dragon
  • Emerald dragon
  • Sapphire dragon
  • Topaz dragon
• Dune stalker, now has a more reptilian appearance.
• Fire falcon, a bird that can fire explosive spheres from its wings.
• Faux fairy, a fairy creature that lives to cause confusion through lies and tricks. They can copy the appearance of any kind of fairy creature. They completely immune to all spells. Whenever they are hit by a spell, they absorb the spell and store it. When they no longer have room to store spells, casting a spell at them will cause them to release one of the previously stored spells at the caster to make room. At night they merge with a piece of dead wood. Burning the piece of wood will cause the spells they have stored to release, and cutting it up will cause only some of the stored spells to release and make the faux fairy split in into two faux fairies.
• Firedrake
• Flawder, intelligent neutral good sea snails.
• Fyrefly, a insect that reproduces in fires. A adult fyrefly normally is harmless but when it is ready to reproduce, it will fly into a fire and rapidly divide into a swarm of up to 64 extremely aggressing flaming insects. Luckily the swarm only lasts for ten rounds of combat before the flies go dormant and change into adults.
• Gambado
• Garbug, the two different types are now the male and female of the same species. Oddly, it is the blood drinking black garbug that is that male, while in real life, blood drinking insects like mosquitos usually are females. Females, but not males, can be trained as guard animals.
  • Black garbug
  • Violet garbug
• Fog giant
• Gibberling, now with a more canine appearance.
• Gorbel
• Grimlock
• Hellcat
• Ice lizard
• Iron cobra
• Khargra
• Mantari, its stinger tail works differently now. It now has a venom that causes temporary strength and dexterity loss.
• Great Mantari, a larger variant.
• Mephit
  • Fire mephit
  • Ice mephit
  • Lava mephit
  • Mist mephit
  • Smoke mephit
  • Steam mephit
• Penanggalan
• Pernicon
• Phantom stalker
• Quaggoth
• Retriever
• Ruve, an intelligent dog with psionic powers. Although they are lawful good, they are extremely arrogant and obnoxious.
• Scathe, an ugly white reptilian humanoids\ related to the harrier, that lives in icy regions. They have poisonous beaks and are immune to cold.
• Scathe larva, identical to harrier larva.
• Sheet ghoul, it now sprays acid from the mouth instead of the nose. Probably an attempt to make it less silly.
• Sheet phantom, no longer has a face. Probably an improvement.
• Shocker, completely redesigned. It now looks like a suit of armor crackling with electricity and it no longer crumbles into dust after its first attack. Now confirmed to be an elemental from the Plane of Lightning.
• Spanner, an intelligent living stone bridge that can talk and likes to gossip. It will drop you if you make it mad or try to cross it without permission. This should be fun for the DM to roleplay.
• Stwinger, a tiny humanoid with short wings whose favorite activity is swinging around using peoples hair or beards until they fall unconscious from the pain of their hair or beards being pulled on. They produce a pheremone that charms victims into letting them do this and even if they fail the stwinger is difficult to attack because of how cute it is.
• Sussurus, now redesigned into a plant monster related to the shambling mound made of bamboo. The song they produce now affects both the living and the undead.
• Symbiotic jelly
• Terithran, now it attacks spellcasters because it likes to eat them, rather than wanting to punish them for disturbing the ethereal plane.
• Thunder children, black humanoids that come out during thunderstorms to feed on people's fear. Their bites inflict electric damage and they can cast several spells, sense fear, and turn into a gaseous form. They like to scare people do death by sneakily doing things to increase the victims fear of the storm. The plane of Ravenloft is a paradise for them.
• Ice Troll
• Tween, it now looks like a short ugly humanoid while on the ethereal plane and it can fight with weapons but only against other things on the ethereal plane.
• Umpleby
• Urdunnir, a relative of the dwarf that has the ability to pass through stone and can innately cast stone shape and shape metal. They can kill people by dragging them into stone using their special ability and then leaving them behind.
• Volt
• Xill
• Xvart
• Zygraat, yet another bird monster with extra legs. This one is actually part spider. It can make webs and has a venomous bite.

3rd Editon

Fewer monsters from the two previous folios return. It has way fewer stupid monsters.

• Abrian, an intelligent bird from the Abyss that looks like an ostrich with small arms instead of wings.

• Ahuizotl, a monster from Aztec mythology. It is part dog, part monkey and has a hand on the end of its tail. It lives in water and attacks people to eat their eyes, teeth, and fingernails.

  • Vultivor, vorr canomorph,

• Century worm, a gargantuan worm that tries to swallow everything it encounters whole. Its stomach is filled with baby worms that burrow into those it swallows. They get their name from the fact that it takes 100 years for a baby worm to grow to full size after implanting itself in a body.
• Chronotyryn, a bird with arms and adamantine feathers. They are powerful sorcerers and can stop time. They also have two brains, which lets them do twice as much per round of combat, somehow.
• Chwidencha, a giant spider completely covered in legs, created from a Drow who seriously angered Lolth.
• Crawling Head, the undead head of a Giant that crawls around with its intestines and has numerous smaller heads from people it bit off the heads of embedded in it. They can cast a lot of necromancy spells, but are weak to water.
