Hey guys! New user here getting things ironed out!

I plan to work on some homebrewed critters and what not for my upcoming campaign, and I know one of the best ways to figure out what im supposed to do is to look at similar modules/extensions/rulesets/whathaveyou. However the critters I plan to make are all for 5E and i cant seem to find the 5E module's anywhere on my clientside.

I think I saw somewhere that they weren't available to crack into, which is fine, does anyone have an example of a 5e coded Monster I could poke around in?

Ive been looking around the forums and i havent seen much (and while im new alot of it might as well be bullywog at a glance tho :p) and for some reason my searches come back with no hits even when i search terms i KNOW are there.

Thanks for any help! :)

This video will help you get an NPC/critter entered in FG, then you can look at the module data: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f-POluSDHAc

Or you could drag a module NPC from the library to the NPC list, unlock it and make a couple of edits, then look at the NPC XML data in the campaign db.xml file. This is the same XML data as used in a module.

Create a single monster within FG and export it (/export in the chat window and select NPCs) this will show you a lot of the syntax.
Or checkout the Par5e tool and thread.
