[QUOTE="FitzTheRuke, post: 5953218, member: 59816"] Way to go. I admire you for doing this. But... I don't see why you need to be quite so... timid with your conversion. Certainly take a look at similar monsters in the Next Bestiary, but you ought to be able to make up things like Giant Frogs without having to sub-in other creatures. I've been running this season of Encounters using Next. Didn't bother me at all that we don't have Drow yet. Just made 'em up. Everyone's having a blast. It's been fun too because DDN plays so much faster than 4e that I've had to make up 1-3 extra "encounters" every session. (I've mostly added to the exploration, but a few extra combat encounters have been fun as well.) So far I find converting TO next is about as easy as these things get. [/QUOTE]
