[5e] Monster humanoid variants

As far as we can tell so far, 5e doesn't have the variants that 4e had with a lot of the humanoids: kobold dragonshields, alchemists, goblin worg riders, etc.



Yesterday jadrax posted on ENWorld a few variants he came up with. Taking from his awesome idea, I think there is an easy template one could use to easily and quickly add a lot of flavor and variance to your monstrous humanoids.



Rule: Add one feat, and double the CR if <1.



Examples:

kobold alchemist (feat: magic initiate /w acid spash cantrip)

goblin spy (feat: skulker)

goblin sentry (feat: observant)

orc shaman (feat: ritual caster)

kobold dragonshield (feat: shield master)





I think the feat system in 5e lends itself very well to easily and quickly modifying monsters.
