D&D: Uncaged – An Anthology Of Ferocious Female Monsters Reimagined
Uncaged is an anthology of adventures that believes every creature in the multiverse has a story to tell–even the monsters.
If you have been exploring the DM’s Guild, odds are good you’ve come across something by Ashley Warren, a writer, narrative designer, whom we featured when we covered Winter’s Splendor last year’s excellent holiday adventure expansion for Waterdeep: Dragon Heist. This year she’s brought about an exciting new anthology of short adventures, each one focusing on a different female monster. Uncaged, the anthology in question, sets out to explore themes and tropes of these monsters, but from a different perspective. The With 4 anthologies planned for this year, the first is out on the DM’s Guild (and featured below) and the 2nd is set to release sometime next month. Here’s a look at the monstrous creations you’ll find in Uncaged.
