[[Featured Article Synopsis::     5th edition creature: Sun Wukong


Sun Wukong, also known as the Monkey King, is famed throughout the multiverse as an archetypal adventurer, a troublemaker, and a force for good. Though he is known by many different names across different worlds—including Qitian Dasheng, Seiten Taisei, and Son Goku—his deeds are universally acclaimed, and he is renowned as both a hero and a demigod.

Sun Wukong wields the Ruyi Jingu Bang, a legendary quarterstaff that can elongate to incredible lengths at his mental command. He wears enchanted boots that allow him to fly by clicking their heels together, which summons a wisp of cloud that he can stand upon and mentally command.

Beyond his magical weapons and martial skill, the Monkey King has an innate grasp of magic. He knows spells that can conjure wind, paralyze mortals and demons, teleport himself and others over short distances, keep supernatural creatures at bay, and alter his appearance. Most impressive of all is his ability to create clones of himself from his own hairs, which act in concert with him and follow his mental commands.
