Creature
[1] Any being in the game, including a player’s character, is a creature. See also “Creature Type.”
Creature Type
[1] Every creature, including every player character, has a tag in the rules that identifies the type of creature it is. Most player characters are of the Humanoid type. These are the game’s creature types:
The types don’t have rules themselves, but some rules in the game affect creatures of certain types in different ways.
Creature Size
[2] A creature belongs to a size category, which determines the width of the square space the creature occupies on a map, as shown on the Creature Size and Space table. That table lists the sizes from smallest (Tiny) to largest (Gargantuan). A creature’s space is the area that it effectively controls in combat and the area it needs to fight effectively.
A character’s size is determined by species, and a monster’s size is specified in the monster’s stat block.
| Creature Size and Space [2] | ||
|---|---|---|
| Size | Space (Feet) | Space (Squares) |
| Tiny | 2½ by 2½ feet | 4 per square |
| Small | 5 by 5 feet | 1 square |
| Medium | 5 by 5 feet | 1 square |
| Large | 10 by 10 feet | 4 squares (2 by 2) |
| Huge | 15 by 15 feet | 9 squares (3 by 3) |
| Gargantuan | 20 by 20 feet | 16 squares (4 by 4) |
Monster
Main: Monster[3] A monster is a creature controlled by the GM, even if the creature is benevolent. See also “Creature” and “NPC.”
Creature List
Monster Conversions
[4] Every monster in 2014 Monster Manual either appears in [the Monster Manual (5e24)] or has a CR-appropriate replacement. If you’re using material published prior to this book and are unable to locate a stat block herein, consult the Stat Block Conversions table to find the equivalent stat block you should use.
