5e Npc Stat Block Creator
Sep 23, 2015 But 5E didn’t bother. Notice that, when a stat block DOES appear in a 5E product, it’s identical to the stat block in the Monster Manual. There’s actually no accepted system for abbreviating. Because the stat block doesn’t contain information that isn’t needed to run the monster to begin with.

Sep 23, 2015 We want to present stat blocks in the text of adventures. And to do that, they need to be manageable. 5E was built to ignore the idea of a user interface. It just didn’t care. Because it was a product of 3E and 4E. From 4E, it took the idea that the stat block should mostly contain only information needed to make the monster playable. While a paladin can be both an ally or an opponent of the PCs, anyway in the MM of D&D 5th edition a NPC paladin isn't included. So here you can find my own version of a paladin NPC, which was easily created by starting from the knight block in the MM.
