Dungeon Crawl Classics RPG:
Mundane Monster Generator

The purpose of this page is to quickly generate general purpose wandering encounters. You won't find any epic dragons here or an Ogre King for the grand finale. For unique, special monsters, refer to the core books on how to build them as it is always more fun and personal to roll your own.

Feel free to print a few of these and keep them in your Judge's Bag of Death Stuff for when your players go off-script and you need to kill them.

General Information:

The creatures generated here are a combination of the Dungeon Crawl Classics Rulebook 4th Printing (aesthetics and weapon types), the ‘DCC Quick Monster Stats’ available on the free resources page, and my personal fudging around based on what I think looks right.

Humanoids and Undead are taken straight from the core rulebook. Goodman Games gave me their ok as long as I didn't make money off of this, so it's all good.
