The su-monster is described in the Monster Manual as having dirty gray fur, a black tail and face, and crimson paws. Su-monsters may now accumulate gold in addition to the treasure they collected previously. The chance to encounter a su-monster in its lair has dropped slightly to 30%. The areas they inhabit are specified as “forsaken wilderness areas and subterranean lairs” but the Dungeon Masters Guide also lists them as suitable for temperate forests for faeries and sylvan settings. The Monster Manual erroneously lists the su-monster’s alignment as just chaotic, but Dragon #43 later corrects this to chaotic neutral.Ī frequency of uncommon is listed. Su-monsters are noted as medium-sized and of average intelligence. A su-monster is given a psionic ability of 120 although it isn’t clear why this is relevant for its once-per-day latent psionic attacks. The statistics are similar to Eldritch Wizardry, but there is a slight increase in the su-monster’s hit points (it now has 5+5 hit dice) and its attacks (claws now do 1-4 damage, and its bite 2-8). Most of the descriptive text in the Monster Manual is unchanged from Eldritch Wizardry. Su-monsters have 4+2 Hit Dice, a movement of 9 and an armor class of 6. In combat, they more commonly use their 4 claws (each doing 1-3 damage) and bite (1-8 damage). Because this ability is latent, the su-monster itself cannot be targeted by psionic attacks. This ability can be used once per day and is triggered by other nearby psionic activity. They have a latent psionic ability - either psychic crush, psionic blast, or mind thrust. If they have treasure, it will consist of copper or silver coins, a few gems or items of jewelry and a small chance of a couple of magic items.Ĭhaotic evil creatures, su-monsters frequently hang upside down lurking for prey but they are equally comfortable upright. Su-monsters may be encountered outdoors or underground, with a 40% chance of being encountered in their lair. The adults will protect their family (fighting “at double value”). Su-monsters occur in groups of up to a dozen, more than four usually meaning a male, female and young. They have gorilla heads, and four prehensile feet with long, sharp nails. Eldritch Wizardry describes su-monsters as having the chest of a great hound and the waist of a wasp. It first appears as a D&D creature in Supplement III: Eldritch Wizardry, which is credited to Gary Gygax and Brian Blume.
