This gives me a default type of check that can be done based on creature type.

I created the following chart for determining the skill required for characters to obtain in-game knowledge about a particular type of monster.

home-brewed for 5e in a way that is completely consistent with the guidance given by the 5e PHB, page 177 - 178, Intelligence Checks (but goes further to create guidelines I use that are not RAW, but rather extend RAW).

While the OP asks for a presumably RAW solution according to 5e rule-sets, I have found the following 3.5e-derived home-brewed chart very helpful for this - I hope that it helps someone. Whereas if someone wants to know more about unholy creations most people don't see, but are commonly known about, that would be a religion check of 15 for medium difficulty. For example, if you are in a town ravaged by kobolds consistently, it would be fairly easy for someone to know the few different roles they have in battle, so I'd give that a DC of 10. In terms of setting the DC, use your best judgement based on the typical DC table found on page 174 of the PHB. Servants of deities, undead, and other holy or unholy beings would be described with this skill. Religion - Use this skill to learn more about creatures of religious creation. Most often, this means animals (wolves, bats, etc.) but it could also be tied to druidic creations, or guardians of nature.

Nature - Use this skill to learn more about creatures tied directly to nature. For example, goblins, kobolds, and most other humanoid races play significant roles in history. History - Use this skill to learn more about creatures that play prominent roles throughout history. So, for example, I would organize it loosely in the following way:Īrcana - Use this skill to discover more about elemental creatures, creatures of pure magic, arcane creations, and creatures of other planes I take this as using the specific skills to figure out the in game knowledge. Your Intelligence (Religion) check measures your ability to recall lore about. Your Intelligence (Nature) check measures your ability to recall lore about.

Your Intelligence (Arcana) check measures your ability to recall lore about. Though it is not as clear as in previous editions, I believe that you would use the various intelligence skills based on what creature you are trying to learn about.
