WTF, D&D: Monster Manual V (3E)
Madcrafter of Thoon
Steve: This is my favorite creature in the book.
Zack: It’s terrible.
Steve: No!
Zack: I don’t like any of the Thoon stuff. They thought that mindflayers were cool so they were like “what about mindflayers that went on a space mission and joined up with aliens.” It results in ten different mindflayers and several weird things like this.
Steve: Which is awesome. It’s a creature that pukes up robots. It can violently spit robots out as an attack.
Zack: Like when the swamp monster from Empire Strikes Back pukes out R2D2?
Steve: You mean the King of the Dragonsnakes who was the biggest of the dragonsnakes in Dragonsnake Bog.
Steve: No, nothing like that. It tried to eat R2D2 and spit him back out. This thing makes the robots and pukes them out. It’s mouth-birthing them.
Zack: That one weird trick doctors don’t want you to know about.
