Background[]
- In the Editorial panel of Dragon #169, it was noted that derro were originally going to be included among the monsters in this compendium, as they had previously featured in Greyhawk adventures such as Greyhawk Ruins and Flames of the Falcon, but they were ultimately cut from the book due to a lack of space.[1]
