Flanagans in D&D 5e are a quirky and often misunderstood element of the game's lore. They're essentially sentient, gelatinous creatures with a penchant for mischief, usually found in the Underdark or other dark, damp environments. What makes them fascinating is their ability to mimic objects or even other creatures, blending seamlessly into their surroundings until they strike. Their amorphous bodies allow them to squeeze through tiny gaps, making them perfect for ambushes. I once ran a campaign where the party spent an entire session paranoid about every chest and door, thanks to a cleverly hidden Flanagan that nearly wiped them out.
Beyond their deceptive nature, Flanagans have a unique social structure. They communicate through subtle vibrations and color changes, which can be mesmerizing to watch if you manage to observe them without triggering their aggression. Their diet consists of minerals and organic matter, and they’re known to 'farm' lichen in their lairs. Despite their eerie appearance, some scholars believe Flanagans might possess a rudimentary culture, though proving it is tricky since they dissolve upon death, leaving little evidence. They’re a fantastic way to add tension and unpredictability to a dungeon crawl.
Flanagans are one of those D&D monsters that seem silly until they ruin your day. Imagine a slime that’s also a master of disguise—that’s them. They’re not just blobs; they’re smart enough to set traps and wait for prey. I love using them in games because players never see them coming. One minute they’re looting a 'barrel,' the next they’re engulfed in sticky goo. Their stats aren’t overwhelming, but their surprise factor is where they shine. Plus, their gelatinous bodies mean they’re immune to a lot of conventional attacks, forcing creative solutions. A party that underestimates Flanagans is a party that’s about to have a very bad time.

MANAGING MAGES:
Hawk had been tormenting me as long as I could remember.
I was a young mage and my power was still growing. But they thrust me under his watch in the service to our Warlord. And damn him for enjoying every moment he can torment me.
Every time I think my power strong enough to challenge him, he finds new ways to torture me.
He's told me that I'm his little prey and he'll be kinder when I succumb to him but I've vowed to never let the overbearing, insufferable cad put a hand on my bare skin.
It's a battle of wills and wits. He may be more clever but I'm certainly more stubborn!
But one thing I've learned about Hawk, never underestimate his conniving...I should've known better than to challenge him.
After all, he's made a name for himself by his skill in Managing Mages. But beyond him there is an even bigger problem. Warlord: The Commander of the Mage's Guild. A ruthless killer who leaves a dark mist in his wake.
Escaping the Mage's Guild would mean challenging Warlord himself. A dangerous endeavor.
WARLORD'S WARD
He came into our village like a shadow.
A Dark Mage with the most powerful magic in all the realm. King Detry merely calls him Warlord.
And he owns that title. Leaving wreckage in his wake.
But for me, he had other plans. His cutting blue eyes seeing straight through my disguise.
As his slave, his mere plaything, I'll learn the true darkness of magic without conscience.
Anything he wants of me, he takes. Anything he wants me to do. I am willed to do with the flick of his hand.
His power is an all consuming whirlwind. And I'm just the pretty butterfly caught in it.
