A couple of weeks ago, I decided to see how it did with descriptions of some classic D&amp;D monsters, so I grabbed my first edition <em>Monster Manual<\/em> and fed descriptions from the book into the AI. A few notes:<\/p>\n<p>I included the phrases &#8220;monster&#8221; and &#8220;Dungeons &amp; Dragons,&#8221; along with the names of several of my favorite fantasy artists, in the entry to kind of establish a baseline.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>I tried to stick to the weirder D&amp;D-specific creatures like Beholders and Owlbears.<\/li>\n<li>A lot of monsters in the 1E <em>Monster Manual<\/em>&#8211;even weird ones like intellect devourers and rust monsters&#8211;have basically no description at all. The picture is the only indication of what the critter looks like.<\/li>\n<li>Some (but not all) entries have a &#8220;description&#8221; section. I halfway wonder if this section was originally meant to be a miniatures painting guide, because they mostly focus on the colors of various parts of the monster. If there was a description, I started with it.<\/li>\n<li>If there wasn&#8217;t a description, or if important things were not mentioned there but were mentioned or described in more detail elsewhere in the entry, I added those bits. However, I didn&#8217;t add any words that didn&#8217;t appear in the description. So, for example, I couldn&#8217;t add &#8220;humanoid with an octopus for a head&#8221; for the Mind Flayer, because the entry doesn&#8217;t say that anywhere&#8211;it just describes what color the parts are.<\/li>\n<li>I kept running new versions of each monster until I got something that was close to the traditional look or until I got bored.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Here are the best entries, along with the descriptions I used:<\/p>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-5079 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/deathcookie.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/07d941b75ea0498f219b438cc4195447-300x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/deathcookie.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/07d941b75ea0498f219b438cc4195447-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/deathcookie.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/07d941b75ea0498f219b438cc4195447-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/deathcookie.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/07d941b75ea0498f219b438cc4195447-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/deathcookie.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/07d941b75ea0498f219b438cc4195447.png 820w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>Ankheg<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The ankheg has a chitinous shell which is brownish in color.
