hey uhhhh there's an official D&D statblock for the minions from Despicable Me

https://media.wizards.com/2018/dnd/dragon/21/DRA21_minions.pdf

@em i woulda thought their constitution stat were higher
@em I saw this in Dragon+ and nearly swore off roleplaying
@flip Illumination-themed D&D campaign. play as beloved characters from classic films like Despicable Me, Despicable Me 2 and uhhhhhhh Despicable Me 3
@em I don’t know what illumination-themed means and now I don’t want to
@flip illumination is the studio that made despicable me and the minions movie. they're like disney or dreamworks but worse

@em oh wow. Oh wow oh wow

There’s no way this could compare to the Boss Baby campaign I’m running

@em I'm kinda tempted to drop them into my campaign, but frame them as some kind of eldritch horror and wait for the moment half way through combat where one of my players goes "Hang on, are we fighting Minions?"
@Caelyn that would be so fun! just describe them kinda vaguely and see how long it takes
@em I have burned all my roleplaying books after seeing this. The blaze is visible from space
@secondary_world i sent the link to my DM so now i'm fully expecting him to put it in our campaign before the end of the month

@em wtf

but also what if I just casually drop these in and see if my players figure out what they are...
