Editing Template

{{dnd-stub}}

'''Templates''' are a concept introduced in [[Dungeons & Dragons 3rd Edition]], designed as a way for [[Dungeon Master|DMs]] to modify creatures without accidentally making an overpowered [[TPK]] machine. The basic idea is, for example, any mortal can become a [[vampire]], so instead of just leaving the DM to figure out how that affects their [[hit points]] and base attack bonus, [[WotC]] provided Templates in most [[Monster Manual|Monster Manuals]] that could be added on to existing [[stat block|stat blocks]] to turn your 12th [[level]] [[dwarf]] [[ranger]] into a vampire.

3.5 & [[Pathfinder]] also continued this tradition.
