## How to use?

As a simple example, lets display how many hit points an Aboleth has.
There are two ways to access the data about monsters:

### Approach 1:

```javascript
const monsters = require('dnd5-srd/monsters');
const aboleth = monsters.find(monster => monster.name === 'Aboleth');
console.log(aboleth.hit_points);
```

### Approach 2:

```javascript
const dnd = require('dnd5-srd');
const monsters = dnd.data.monsters;
const aboleth = monsters.find(monster => monster.name === 'Aboleth');
console.log(aboleth.hit_points);
```
