Video Description

The Spanner might be one of the strangest D&D monsters I've ever talked about on this show. These guys are literally talking, walking, bridges from AD&D 2nd Edition. They love gossip, and they are generally friendly... unless you mess with their friends. Join me as I go in depth on everything there is to know about the talking bridge monster from D&D, the Spanner. ....it might be my new favourite creature. #DungeonsAndDragonsLore #DnD #MonsterLore The D&D 5E stat block for this monster - https://docs.google.com/document/d/169L_Y5Hnu4Q48cqJIoHQZMPRNIDSXSQttVwKTye_-qg/edit?usp=sharing 2nd Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@dungeondad2 Dungeon Dad Merch: https://dungeondad.myshopify.com/ Join the Dungeon Dad channel to get access to fun emojis and support the community: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLtPX8KiXi_hyMNTFxlHNAQ/join Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/DungeonDad Discord - https://discord.gg/QDxjBPa Twitter - http://twitter.com/DungeonPapa Reddit and the monster archive - https://www.reddit.com/r/DungeonDad/ Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/DungeonDad/ All graphic design for this channel was done by the talented Akira Arruda.
