This is a collection of Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition homebrew monsters I created for the Halloween Zero-to-Thirty Challenge Rating Challenge (#030crc). Each day in October 2021 featured a monster (or collection of related monsters) of increasing challenge rating from CR0 to CR30, including lore, full monster stat blocks, and artwork.

This content was written to be compatible with Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition. It makes the following modifications from Systems Reference Document 5.1:
- "Species" is used in place of "race". "Ancestry" or "variant" is used in place of "subrace".
- This document uses new traits called Condition Resistance and Condition Vulnerability. Resistance to a condition means that a creature has Advantage on Saving Throws made to resist that condition, and vulnerability to a condition means that a creature has Disadvantage on such Saving Throws.
- Damage and condition resistance, vulnerability, and immunity are now grouped together as Resistances, Vulnerabilities, and Immunities respectively.
- Resistance, vulnerability, and immunity to Poison apply to both the damage type and the Poisoned condition.
