Description:Excellent source of monsters for 1st Edition AD&D, April 2, 2000 By Henry Bent (Oberlin, OH USA) - See all my reviews This review is from: Fiend Folio: Tome of Creatures Malevolent and Benign (Advanced Dungeons and Dragons Adventure Games) (Hardcover) The Fiend Folio, if you can still find it, is an excellent source of monsters "malevolent and benign," but mostly malevolent. It introduces many creatures which are staples to 2nd edition AD&D, such as the githzerai and githyanki (from Planescape) and the Death Knight (from Krynn/Dragonlance). It has an excellent mix of extraplanar and standard monsters, so it will be suitable for any level campaign. However, I would recommend it especially highly if you were running a campaign that dealt with the Elemental planes, because this has very detailed information on Mephits and the Elemental Princes, as well as other incidental elemental creatures. All in all, it makes an excellent creature sourcebook for those of you still dedicated to 1st edition AD&D
