The Challenge
As part of Privateer Press’ reboot of the Iron Kingdoms for 5e (if you know, you know), we brought the Monsternomicon back to life for the first time since 2007. Our dev team revamped classic creatures and added brand-new horrors, while I worked with the art director to comb through our archives and find just the right illustrations for each monster and NPC.
I ensured every page met the 5e standards RPG players are used to, laying out content to showcase the artwork and keep game play smooth. The book was such a hit—and we had so many beasts left on the cutting room floor—we released a second volume a few years later, with a third now in the works.
