How can i convert 5e monsters into Dcc monsters Like the Demon lords or Unic npcs?
If you are looking at demon lords, you may wish to go the full patron route rather than the monster route.

Spellcasters in other editions/rpgs are not always the best match for DCC. You can keep them exactly as written, if you want, but there is more than a small chance that you will want to adjust their spells and/or abilities to (1) make them match the Appendix N vibe of DCC and/or (2) make them easier to run in DCC.serendipitous wrote: ↑Mon May 17, 2021 2:02 pmThanks for that link!

"(1) Watch Spellcasters: Remember the core rulebook says that NPCs need not play by the same rules as PCs. Even with that in mind, though, you will probably want to re-imagine any spellcasters in the original work."
Probably it is obvious, but I'm not sure quite what's being highlighted here. Maybe the one-of-a-kind / Appendix N flavor a DCC spellcaster ought to have?
Yes, very much. I'll be going over that explanation to parse it carefully & up my game. Many thanks!
