so, i have recently made some homebrew, and i was just thinking "well, these people must make some awesome homebrew creatures! and i might really like them!" so now this thread exists. my only homebrew monster is the wendigo, which i'm really proud of, though it needs a much higher CR. What are your awesome homebrew creatures????

You can see my published homebrews by following the links in my signature. Most of my published monsters are NPCs people can use, but there’s a bone golem in there for some real meat & potatoes.
I'm the sort of pervert who enjoys homebrewing for its own sake. Most of my homebrews will never see the light of a game table, but I treat it like a creative exercise. As a result, I'm pretty happy with most of my published brews. I don't mean to sound arrogant, but most of the homebrews on this site and others are not good, putting it lightly. As a result, I usually prefer my own brews to others, even if I'm the tenth person to brew an idea.
You can find my homebrew thread in my signature. I'd say the monster I've spent the most time on is Dagon, but I had a lot of fun with lower-level monsters including the gnome imagemaker, guecubu, and batiri battle stack. I have tons more that I haven't published, but I haven't had much time to work on them recently.

well, i think that some monsters are pretty bad *cough cough insert, idk, CR 30 rathalos* but i think that the few that are good are really good. and i agree with you, i will never use my CR 19 Arachnid archdruid.

See the problem is that it's time-intensive to sort out the good from the bad. Ratings on this site are a very poor signal of quality, and don't get me started on the fact that we can't sort homebrews by date.

I think the reason rating don’t always equal quality is because of the number of meme items (looking at you, garlic bread domain) that get high rating but were never meant to be good in an actual campaign. Low rating items though are often low quality though.

For a campaign I was in, I needed a dog, so I kinda made an underpowered wolf: https://www.dndbeyond.com/monsters/2301801-dog-hb
And, I also made a Roomba for fun, and a Negative-Infused human for the negative energy plane. https://www.dndbeyond.com/monsters/2377244-roomba-hb
https://www.dndbeyond.com/monsters/2321839-negative-infused-human-hb
(Tell me if the links work, and don’t mind the (HB) at the end. It’s for noting the difference between my personal homebrew and the UA I’m homebrewing for my campaign.)
It pronounced Den Sake. It is not Japanese.
Website character sheet not working fix (Hopefully)
Semi-Expert at homebrew, just ask for my help.

They can cast misty step a few times per day.
Increases to str/con or str/dex if not using tasha’s rules
I think they’re tall enough for size large.
Touching water causes 1d4 acid damage and consumes your reaction to teleport randomly.
Just some ideas
