Frontier Monsters & More: Iceblast Brachydios
Added 2024-10-20 22:51:29 +0000 UTCFoundry stat block and materials are now available for HR4+ Patrons. Please check the bottom of the post for the link.
This months winner was Iceblast Brachydios from Monster Hunter Explorer! The iceblast brachydios is a CR 19 version of the CR 17 brachydios. The raging brachydios sits at a CR 22 and I did not want this one to be higher than it so a 19 fit well enough. The monster itself isn't that much different than a normal brachydios. It still looks to do fire damage, but after the explosions the area freezes. For lore/ecology I am going with the slime it uses, freezes after being exposed to extreme heat.
Its an interesting monster with a lot of area control thanks to the slime and its effects and I think it will still provide a unique fight compared to the normal brach or even raging brach due to the new abilities.
In the .Zip attached, you will find a PDF for the iceblast brachydios and a token used for online play. Within the PDF you will find its stat block and loot table that is usable with the rule set found within Amellwind's Guide to Monster Hunting located in the description of this Patreon page.
The Foundry Compendium that contains the stat block and loot table for this monster will be out tomorrow. I am having issues with creating the module and will need a bit more time to troubleshoot it.
Hope you like it and as always, thank you all for your support!
For my Foundry Patrons, you can find the Iceblast Brachydios stat block and materials in the new-monthly-mh-monster.zip Found in this post HERE. It will be available to download until the December 2024 monster release.
