Monster Manual

Stat blocks for monsters as I make them, with some amount of organization.

Monster Level (CR)

A Monster's strength is represented by a challenge rating, usually abbreviated as C or CR. When building encounters first start by adding together the levels of all the characters in your party. To make an average difficulty encounter you'll want a group of monsters whose CR adds up to your party's level.

For example, if you were building an average encounter for a party with 4, 2nd level characters you would want a group of monsters who adds up to 8 CR. You could use a single owlbear, or a group of monsters such as a goblin shaman, 1-2 fighters and 4-6 normal goblins.

You can make the encounter easier by adding or removing monsters. The table below gives a rough guideline on what CR you should aim for when building an encounter of a given difficulty.

Difficulty	Monster Level
Easy	50-75% Party Level
Average	Party Level
Hard	125-200% Party Level
