Roles of Archetypal Monsters
However, you do not ''need'' Oriental Adventures, and even if you have it, you don't have to constantly throw Eastern creatures at them. Because of the way the history of the Empire works, it's almost like the future of any other DnD society. So while you might encounter a raging, three-eyed oni, it's plausible and possible for the PCs to run into a more classic DnD creature (like a Displacer Beast). In fact, it's possible to run a campaign without Oriental Adventures and any of its monsters, but I don't recommend it.
==Roles of Archetypal New Names for Old Monsters==
This section will be completed at Japanese folklore already has a later datelot of monsters, including several hundred that were illustrated. While many of these monsters are unique to Japan, many of them have equivalents in the Monster Manuals. Below is a list of traditional Japanese monsters that were created already, with their Monster Manual names in parenthesis, as well as some variant rules to make them more authentic.
