The Dungeon of Rak-Arnesh: Level 1

Tristan Tanner wrote:

I recently got my hands on an old copy of B1 and the 1977 Monster & treasure Assortment levels 1-3, and because of this I was inspired to start work on my own multi-level labyrinth in the vein of Blackmoor, Greyhawk, and, of course, the Tower of Zenopus.

Matango (Mushroom People) for Holmes Basic

Tristan Tanner wrote:

Some good old fashioned body horror mushrooms! Also, the matango laugh sound is one of the most horrifying noises I've ever heard.

Morlocks for Holmes Basic

Tristan Tanner wrote:

I converted Pathfinder's odd take on Morlocks to Holmes Basic. Not accurate to The Time Machine, but neat monsters nonetheless.

Gholdakos for Holmes Basic

Been a while since I converted from a modern system. I thought these fellas were interesting, so decided to give them the Holmes treatment.

The Mothman and Goatman for Holmes Basic

A malevolent bringer of doom, or a simple observer of tragedy?

Y'all have been so kind with your feedback and information, so I wantedto try and give you a heads up.

For now, Chris McDowall's OSR discord server seems the best bet for a temporary life raft. (Link is here https://discord.gg/Ewfy7Zv )

Bone Bugs for Holmes Basic

Tristan Tanner wrote:

These are just crawling all over Skull Mountain. They wouldn't be that much of a problem, but the necromancers who made them out of spare parts also decided to add a deadly dose of venom to their fangs...

Bigfoot for Holmes Basic

Tristan Tanner wrote:

Unlike most of the other cryptids so far, this one is the most modified from its original source material. While I have read an article and seen theories from bigfoot enthusiasts claiming the being may be extradimensional, the connection to the Dimensional Shambler is wholly my own, and may not fit for the typical game. In such a case where a more mundane bigfoot is desired, simply use the combat statistics of a bugbear, but with 2 claws and a bite attack, dealing 1-4 damage and 1-6 damage respectively.

The Mad Gasser of Mattoon and the Mongolian Death Worm for Holmes Basic

Tristan Tanner wrote:

Two creatures that are completely unrelated, aside from maybe some relation to poison/venom. The death worm is more suited for a more typical D&D scenario, though the Phantom Anesthetist would be an interesting monster to prowl the streets of Portown by night.

The Hopkinsville Goblins for Holmes Basic

Tristan Tanner wrote:

The original "Little Green Men" that allegedly terrorized a small farm in Kentucky during the August of 1955. I'd think they'd work well in a small, somewhat humorous scenario, where the adventurers are hired to help protect a farm house that is being invaded by these odd creatures.

The Flatwoods Monster for Holmes Basic

Tristan Tanner wrote:

A meteor crashed down into the nearby woods, and there has been an unearthly pungent mist around the crash site. Local kids in the area who went to take a look, report seeing two glowing eyes, peering at them from the woods...

The Chupacabra for Holmes Basic

Tristan Tanner wrote:

The ranchers near Portown have been finding their livestock dead, with puncture wounds in their necks and their bodies drained of blood. Most believe it to be the work of a cult, while others think it is the work of juvenile delinquents. A few, older, more superstitious townsfolk know the dark truth...

Book of Delves by Tristan Tanner

Tristan Tanner wrote:

Not strictly Holmes basic, but might be useful if anyone is in need of some short dungeon delves for their games! The monster statistics included in the book are roughly compatible with the Holmes rules, though armor is listed as "Leather" or "Chain" instead of 8 and 6.

Xenomorphs for Holmes Basic

Tristan Tanner wrote:

I already did the kruthiks, which were essentially xenomorph expys, so why not the real deal? Alien only came out a couple of years after the blue book, I imagine there may have been an alien or two stalking the underworld...
