Hey all,
Every villain has their henchmen. Many of them are nothing but common thugs. These are enemies for your party to face that shouldn’t be too challenging, but should provide a little bit of sport for your party to face.
The problem with this is, in the official 5e products, we have the Thug, a simple 1/2 CR creature that your party can face in their early adventures, but don’t really provide any sort of a challenge once the party levels up. So, what do we do for henchmen for villains of higher levels?
Well, we decided we needed more Thugs and scaled them up for us to use at various levels. We hope you enjoy and take these new tougher henchmen and throw them into your next adventures.
We’ve included the original Thug here to show you our starting off point, and then you can see how we scaled it up to Challenge Ratings of 4, 8 and 12. These new Thugs should be fun new encounters for your party at any level.
Enjoy!
