The displacer beast is one of a limited selection of Dungeons & Dragons monsters that has appeared in every edition of the game since its initial introduction in the Greyhawk (supplement) for the original edition of Dungeons and Dragons in 1975. These creatures were inspired by the coeurl in A.E. van Vogt's Voyage of the Space Beagle[1]. Displacer beasts are one of a select few Wizards of the Coast's items of Product Identity[2].
