Sneak Peek - Monster Cards
Here’s a sneak peek at the upcoming Monster Cards. These cards will show a summary of the monster and its current powers. Each monster will have a "loadout" of powers. For example, a basic skeleton has two power slots - a Dark Gift slot which will be filled by some sort of necromantic power and a Weapon slot that will be filled with a martial power.
This is just a wireframe mockup of what a monster card will look like - the design and art are not final!
From the card, you'll be able to customize the monster by tapping on the selected power in each slot and choosing a different possible power.
For example, a skeleton currently has 6 possible Dark Gift powers and 11 possible Weapon powers, meaning that with Foe Foundry you'll be able to effortlessly generate 66 different basic Skeletons. Higher threat monsters will of course have more powers and even more possible variety!
Of course, if you don't want to edit everything by hand you'll be able to re-roll the entire statblock or just roll randomly on a specific loadout.
I hope this gives you a sense of how the generator will allow you to effortlessly craft the perfect foes for your games!
