Fantastic Lairs is a book of capstone lair encounters for your 5e fantasy RPG, designed to inspire and fit into your own campaign. Scott Gray, James Introcaso, and Mike Shea have teamed up to lighten the load of shaping and developing your game’s climactic encounters. But when it comes to the climactic boss battle encounters that cap off single adventures or entire campaigns, it’s often much harder for GMs to work things out on the fly. When the plans of the Gamemaster meet the actions of the characters, the incredible creative energy that results can spin encounters off in different directions, creating a largely spontaneous campaign story that keeps the GM and the players alike on the edge of their seats. The best 5e fantasy roleplaying games are often the most unpredictable. ![]() Here’s the description of the product I cowrote with Mike Shea of Sly Flourish and Scott Fitzgerald Gray: Have you ever thought, “I could really use a book of 23 boss battles and short dungeons to drop into my D&D games?” Well if you have, I’ve got good news for you! Fantastic Lairs is now available on DriveThruRPG in PDF, hardcover, and softcover.
