: Re: Is there a website that tells you which D&D creatures are under copyright protection? I use D&D as a source of inspiration in my writing, but the problem is sometimes I use monsters I

As far as I could find, here's a list of monsters that are copyrighted:

Beholder, Gauth, Carrion Crawler, Displacer Beast, Githyanki, Githzerai, Kuo-toa, Mind Flayer, Slaad, Umber Hulk, Yuan-ti, Tanar'ri, and Baatezu. (Reddit)

Many DnD monsters are from mythology and/or folklore, so as long as you don't use the specific name (which may be copyrighted) but use the monster's appearance, you should be fine. If you're looking to publish the work that includes said DnD monsters, it's always a good idea to consult someone like a copyright specialist beforehand so you don't get sued.
