They are often depicted wearing tiger-skin loincloths and carrying iron clubs called kanabō ( 金棒). In nursery rhymes, oni are fearsome bogeymen that haunt the nightmares of children and adults alike, yet they are very real and always hungry.ĭepictions of oni vary widely but usually portray them as hideous, gigantic ogre-like creatures with a single horn or multiple horns emerging from their heads, with sharp claws and wild hair. They aren’t officially part of the game and aren’t permitted in D&D Adventurers League events.
These game mechanics are in draft form, usable in your campaign but not refined byįinal game design and editing. The material here is presented for playtesting and to spark your imagination. So, as promised, I’ll be making a whole slew of new playable races for Dungeons & Dragons Fifth Edition. Wow! Can you believe that on Instagram got more than 1,000 followers yesterday? And that’s all because of you, the D&D community.
