I think that through a series of regular findings, a player could theoretically cause the mimic to consider them as a bringer of food rather than food itself. Mimics tend to live exclusively in dungeons deep underground, and given that they eat anything, there is no logical reason it would not consider you, its master, as food.īut page 167 of Tasha's Cauldron of Everything discusses sentient, daylight colonies of mimics and Zee Bashew mentions that in Dungeons and Dragons lore, mimic's have been known to be sentient and capable of communication. The mimic is a D&D original and one of its most iconic monsters. Just so you know what kind of post you are getting yourself into!

Here are 19 DnD pet ideas that, with a little wiggle room from your Dungeon Master, can make your Dungeons and Dragons Fifth Edition campaigns a little more magical and full of fantasy beasts and monsters! And as we all know, if your character is trying to flirt, a cute puppy can only help.Īlready love our stuff? Sign up and stay up to date on everything we post. That said, many of these pets do come with mechanical, practical benefits. Ultimately, you have this creature as a pet because it brings your player character pleasure, not because they have some huge mechanical benefit for combat, exploration, or role-playing. But overall, just like in the real world, these are beasts and monsters that, in the wrong situation, might be enemies and, in the right situation, can be considered loyal friends.Īnother important point: a pet is not the same as a combat companion! If you want to build a character that, in combat, works in tandem with your pet, play the Beast Master Ranger or the Circle of the Shepherd Druid. There will be a few exceptions to these rules in our list.
#TINY PLAYER 5E MANUAL#
I have sifted through the 5e Monster Manual and found you 19 D&D beasts and monsters that could theoretically (and with DM approval ) function as fantasy companions in any DnD campaign. So given that we are in a magical world, what magical pets are available to DnD players? we are playing a fantasy game.Ī fantasy world full of ghouls and ghosts, wizards and watchtowers, elemental planes and elven domains. You could, of course, choose a dog or a cat, and any animal from the zoo would make a fantastic pet in D&D.īut we aren't just playing a fantastic game. And when that happens, a lot of players think: One way or another, our pets insert themselves into the game.

Make Any Character and Adventure More Magical with a Fantasy Animal Companion!
