Worldbuilding with the Creature Codex

Cover art for the Creature Codex by Kobold Press. It features an undead king on a throne, surrounded by skeletons and spirits.

Worldbuilding with the Creature Codex is a blog post series where I read through Kobold Press’ Creature Codex bestiary for 5e, focusing on one monster at a time and finding a place for them in my personal Warpwalkers Campaign Setting.

Throughout the series, I look at each individual creature and make tweaks to their statistics or lore to fit them into the setting or to (in my opinion) improve their design. I usually end with an adventure hook — NPCs, locations, or conflicts that could spark a session of play revolving around that creature.
