One of the saddest goals they must accomplish is the destruction of a sister who has become a Fallen Onyx and who hurts people.

[QUOTE="Dog Moon, post: 3643404, member: 23023"] [b]Pearl of the Moon and Fallen Onyxes[/b] Okay, I have listened to Quartz and come to a compromise: I have changed the description of Pearls and they should now be more fitting as creatures of their own rights. However, I am also working on a Template which will represent those Chosen by the Moon Goddess instead of being created by her as in the description of the Pearls. [Sblock=Notes From Before] Okay, this was inspired when I saw the name of a Dragon in another thread, Pearl, Dragon of the Moon or something similar to that, but it didn't really have any 'moon-like' abilities and I didn't think what I had in mind would be particularly appropriate for Dragons, so I went with fey. Again, as what I frequently do when making new creatures, I used Nymph as the base creature and modified it, switching Swim speed with flying, modified a couple of skills/feats, and their abilities. Behind the changes, I'm sure the 'Nymph' part is fairly noticeable now that you know about it. So I chose Khopesh for their weapon. Not particularly happy about that weapon because I would have sworn there was a blade that looked kind of like a question mark which more resembles a moon than a Khopesh. Note: I'm only about 95% done. Need to find a couple of appropriate feats is all.[/Sblock] [COLOR=DeepSkyBlue]Pearl of the Moon Size/Type: Medium Fey Hit Dice: [/COLOR] 6d6+6 (32 hp) [COLOR=DeepSkyBlue]Initiative: [/COLOR] +3 [COLOR=DeepSkyBlue]Speed: [/COLOR] 30 ft, fly 20 ft (Perfect) [COLOR=DeepSkyBlue]Armor Class: [/COLOR] 17 (+3 Dex, +4 deflection), touch 17, flat-footed 14 [COLOR=DeepSkyBlue]Base Attack/Grapple: [/COLOR] +3/+3 [COLOR=DeepSkyBlue]Attack: [/COLOR] Khopesh +6 melee (1d8+3/19-20) [COLOR=DeepSkyBlue]Full Attack: [/COLOR] Khopesh +6 melee (1d8+3/19-20) [COLOR=DeepSkyBlue]Space/Reach: [/COLOR] 5 ft./5 ft.
