The Monstrous Compendium Appendix series was a line of accessories produced for Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 2nd edition. Each accessory expanded on the original Monstrous Compendium Volume One (1989) and Monstrous Compendium Volume Two (1989), providing additional monsters for the game, usually for a specific campaign setting.

Digital[]

  • Savage Coast Monstrous Compendium Appendix (1996)

Development[]

Early appendices, like the first two Monstrous Compendiums, were looseleaf with punched holes, meant to be placed in a binder along with the pages from first two volumes. Later, they were released as paperback sourcebooks. The final release, the Savage Coast Monstrous Compendium Appendix (1996), was never published; instead, the material was released for free online.

Reception and influence[]

Material from several of the Monstrous Compendium Appendices was compiled together with the first two volumes to create the Monstrous Manual (1993).
