The BETTER way to run Krampus in D&D

Welcome to Creature Creator. The show where I help YOU recreate your favorite characters and stories at your gaming tables. It's December which means it's the season for Yultide One-Shots! When Game Masters get to swap out their usual monsters and villains for ones inspired by the Holiday Season.

Towering above this collection of murderous snowman and rabid reindeer, looms Santa Claus' dark shadow - the terrifying KRAMPUS! Who thanks to a string of movies in the 2010s, has been solidified as the perfect villain to helm many of these festive games.

While that is all well and good. I, however, believe there are BETTER ways to use this big devil. And it begins with thinking just a *little* outside the box...

Can you believe this is my 20th _Creature Creator_ ? It honestly doesn't feel real to me right now (I guess I thought I would lose steam by the sixth one). I mean, I always HOPED it would get the response it has. I just didn't expect how energized I would get seeing you all enjoy my work. 😭

I don't think I will ever be able to thank you all enough for that. Seriously, it has been the greatest gift I could ever ask for.

How long did it take to setup the zombie elves for that 5-second shot? I gotta know.

I do feel this video spent a bit too much time telling us who Krampus was and a little too little time telling us how to use/make him in dnd compared to your other videos in the series, I hope you take this well as I don't intend to insult your work, just inform you

I had made a krampus for a campaign he is not really a evil person just a misguided and mistreated person as I made him he trusted somebody and that person killed his children and his wife and made him go crazy made him want revenge on the gods who didn't fulfill their promises on the gods who treated him like a beast since I'm making Krampus a child of two Gods I haven't decided on which ones I'm looking through all different types of Mythology because I'm having him throughout the campaign having my players see it from a distance him slaughtering Gods like it's easy and he's gaining Powers he's gaining strength is unlocking ancient Magic he's becoming malicious all backstory of my character as I made him he was the mayor of a town a town high in the mountains between the forest and the woods and I also made him a brother of Santa Claus or as I'm calling you in the campaign Saint Nicholas so technically Krampus in my campaign his last name is Nicholas and but in the first of the campaign I'm going to have him a kind man introduced The Village and having him just slowly turning into the Beast
