You fall asleep after being bitten. You dream you are on a beach of stones, there is no life, only the stinking rot draged up by a monotonous tide. You walk away from the shore to get away from the smell and find a pen with a single sheep in it. There is no food in it's trough and it's water is filthy and the whole scene strikes you as sad. You decide to put the sheep out of it's misery so it doesn't starve to death, but as you bring the stone down on the back of it's skull you suddenly jump awake and sit bolt upright. There is a bloody stone in your hand.
The description of the death sheep's fangs and the similar symptoms of their victims reminds me of the 'blaspheme' undead monster from the 3.5 splatbook "Libris Mortis." It would be changing both creatures' lore a bit, but I think it would be really fun if humanoids that succumb to the death sheep disease become blasphemes, and any normal sheep bitten by a blaspheme will become a death sheep after about half the time it takes for a humanoid to turn. The undead creature is perfectly intelligent, and it would lurk near a sheep farm and slowly abduct the animals over the course of a month or two. Then with a full flock of death sheep ready to go, the blaspheme drives them back into town, and the sheep give nasty bites to all the citizens. The undead fiend seeks out the local cleric at the same time and dirtnaps them, leaving the town without any hope of stopping the disease from creating a small army of blasphemes. From there the large band of blasphemes fan out and overrun the countryside very quickly. The PCs are given a quest to investigate when the neighboring hamlets and cities hear nothing from the empty village. If the party dawdles too long the ghastly outbreak will be nigh unstoppable!
@@jacobfreeman5444 Why is it impossible? There would be signs of the struggle that took place, the blasphemes can't make more of their own kind that quickly, and once the severity of the threat is known the powers that be in the area will be mobilized to assist the party. Stopping the blaspheme band before even a single additional loss of livestock or human life will be very difficult yes. But my idea wouldn't be for some weakling low level adventurers. A blaspheme is a CR 9 by itself. A band of blasphemes plus however many death sheep would be a challenge for an even higher level party. CR 10 characters have some powerful means at their disposal. Mounts, good spells (scrying, planar binding, dream), expert survival checks, and a social butterfly to convince the authorities of the enormity of the danger at hand. A race against time with every wasted moment resulting in more infections and potential murders is the recipe for an exciting adventure.
@@jacobfreeman5444 If my players willfully ignore the quest or drag their feet after discovering that the entire town has been massacred without a single body to be found in the town proper, then the death sheep/blaspheme cataclysm that follows is on them. LOL
Going back to our 2E days, my group is always willing to soak a sheep in oil, open a door to the enemy keep, light up the sheep, and close the door behind the sheep. That's our death sheep. Fire in the hole!
In 3.5 we compelled children from an orphanage to run around a city throwing alchemists fire around. Funny thing about small orphans, they quickly botch their rolls and set themselves on fire igniting the rest of the potions. The city watch were more than a little distracted and we managed to rob the bank and recover 3 gems of Tharizdun
That’s a Fire Sheep. I got that same idea after hearing someone with a horrible accent narrating a documentary about the Spanish Armada. “He said ‘fire ship’ damn it.”
First an ambush predator that looks like it came from a Lewis Carroll acid trip. Now a carnivorous sheep with magical rabies. You're spoiling us AJ and Christmas is still three weeks away.
lol. I guess this means that the killer cows with halberds from the Secret Cow Level in Diablo has competition, now. It could a modified form of Rabies, but it could also be a modified form of Scrapies, since that disease is sheep specific.
Literally not kidding, I made up this exact thing, down to the black teeth, but without the disease, with my DM friend while we were doing some one shot worldbuilding. Never knew this was ACTUALLY a thing!
I had a painting of these... years ago some poor paladin managed to be magically sucked into the painting and everyone watched the animatic of these guys running down the poor guy
I can imagine ONE way to control the Death Sheep: Necromancy. If you did reanimate Death Sheep, might the contagion of the madness plague be bonded to the negative energy causing it to also result in contagious zombification? Thus setting Basil in the center of a zombie apocalypse.
I was planning on a summoner Warlock for a campaign. I'm definitely using that if possibly. Make it a skeleton and put in a bag of holding until needed
I think it would only spread the disease, not spread zombification, although the one that reanimated the sheep would be able to control the sheep. That could give him/her an opportunity for a concentrated spreading of this disease if (s)he so wished.
Ah yes the plane of Zealand a realm filled with such supernatural joy outsiders must occasionally focus on highly negative thoughts such as being brutally murdered by monsters to avoid dying from the effect of the plane
Between these and Gorgons I'm starting to wonder what the farm would look like if Old MacDonald had been a wizard with a penchant for horrifying magical creatures?
All I can think about now is the movie Black Sheep.... so feckin good....props to your country folk on comin through clutch with that one, Aj. Haven’t thought about it in a long time, gonna have to dig it up and watch it now heh
This reminds me of when necromancers tried to take over the Isles in the Moonshae Trilogy books in the late 80's by Douglas Niles. Great beastie for Kiwis and Brits! (And never go to the Falklands without a Cleric or 5)
Death sheep, death cheese. Is there anything in Toril that's not trying to kill you? It's a wonder there are any peasants at all considering how most things are actively hostile to folks without magic/combat skills.

We say we’re hunting wolves But they’re mostly wearing wool ‘cause some of them are fellow sheep See, the risk of combating monsters Is the risk of becoming monsters In this game of us or them Will we ever be the same again?
Hey! It isn't easy being a wizard. You can disintegrate gnolls, clone yourself, steal money from the hells, trick an enemy sorcerer into blowing up an orphanage with a dragon illusion, whatever. But you accidentally turn ONE sheep into a flesh crazed killer...
I know! It is nothing but old stereotypes. When some strange monstrosity comes out of nowhere or the local ruins become a staging point for the Abyss, it is always "A wizard did it!" I think the druids and clerics are in league with one another to discredit the arcane arts.
I love these weird videos! My homebrew world has this theme of a little weird, but not too weird. So like the flail snail, yak-men, and now the death sheep, are all a part of my world😊
Ooooo! Thanks for the like, AJ. I'm a rather new viewer of yours, but I already have seen how amazing your in depth videos are! I will undoubtably be using them more and more as I make my world. I just started this week
This reminds me of a creature I created called the wolf in sheep's clothing which was a carnivorous sheep which captured its prey by hiding among flocks of sheep waiting to maul unsuspecting predators that were targeting their herd...
I have a horrible distrust of undulates in general ever since I was headbutted by a cow at a petting zoo once. These sheep remind me of the Simpson's episode with the ToMacco-crazed livestock. Perhaps they're a result of some necromantic farmer(Evil Druid) who plants fields of corrupted grass to convert them into Death Sheep.
It was an April Fools issue. The Ring of Hunan Influence came from one of those too. It didn’t do anything but make food too spicy to eat. I think that was meant to be a curse…
If one became a weresheep, would it not be reasonable that they could shear themselves and make quality wool clothing? All they have to do is wait for a full moon...
Very nice intro, I thought you might a New Zealander. Along with South African, two of the most pleasant accents to listen to. I've also been binge watching Viva la dirt league d&d sessions lately, very silly and funny bunch.
so for other beasties of the land of the long white cloud... has the tanipha ever shown up in d&d? i could be imagine someone making up a stat block back in the early 80's era of white dwarf...
Kudos to you for another fantastic monster ecology video from the classic AD&D games!!! Amazing how this unique and deadly creature have never been rebooted into the 5E setting. About time since they've rebooted almost all of the classic 1st and 2nd editions of AD&D. My DM have already introduced, with my help, a Death Weresheep creature which is immune to the Death Sheep disease, even in human form. Awesome video! Keep up the great work you do for us TH-cam viewers/subscribers like myself!!!
That sheep at the end reminds me of the Night sheep in one of the stories written by L.E. Modesitt. Those were 2m long, red eyes, completely black, and razor sharp crystalline horns. The strongest nightrams were nasty enough to go head to head with the 3m long, crystalline toothed wolves that hunted night sheep.
Love your videos you resparked my love for the game through your vids. I'm starting in a game soon an was wondering if you could do a hexblade vid? Keep up the great work!!
Hi AJ! I have a suggestion for an interesting video. The origin story behind THE SpellJammer. Not the campaign setting, the actual ship it's named for.
BAAAH-utiful! I wonder what kind of cheese they make... I don't know if you're aware of the Gelun, but they might be weird enough for this December special spate of monster vids.
I think i have forgotten and then choked on water/tea chuckling at your joke when i come back around to this one. And then wondering if we are ever going to get a blink mammoth video. I am imagining huge migrating herds of the things
@@AJPickett more espionage than anything. Say a drow raiding party introduces one into local livestock to cause problems? Maybe pump it full of drugs so it isnt fully cognizant until it is on the herd in order to infect the entire sheep population?
This sounds like something that would be in “Monty Python and the Holy Grail”. I mean the killer rabbit seems awfully similar minus the black gums and teeth.

Ok at 6:16 I see mention of a pigeontoad and a killer spruce. I definitely need to hear about that second one
I am going to use these in my campaigns.
Hmmm, I can imagine a flock of these moving around casting hypnotic pattern or sleep whenever someone tries to count how many sheep are in the flock.
Sleep as a gaze attack. -1 saving throw per additional sheep looking at you.

Is the risk of becoming monsters

@@BrendanKOD Well it felt familiar somehow. I just didn’t know why until now.
Last one. Is the disease ONLY passable by bite or can consuming the flesh do it
