Use these rules for mob combat in Dungeons & Dragons.
Due to being a very weakAberration,Slaad Tadpoles are mainly effective enemies for low-level parties.
Their base health is a mere seven, so you could see they’re easy to deal with.
However, they still have a few things going for them.
Green Slaadi are the main groundwork that all other higher-CR Slaadi will follow.
The options are charmed, frightened, poisoned, or incapacitated.

They’re also medium-sized, which doesn’t change anything, but it is curious.
Along with that, being able to fly is very useful, andCloudkill is just a strong spell overall.

Going back quite a bit on challenge rating, we’ve got the Red Slaadi.
That said, their curse is a bit different.
Using this as a plot hook has the same problem as before; Remove Curse fixes this.
