[QUOTE="Skallon, post: 2150596, member: 18752"] [b]Conversion comments[/b] [FONT=Comic Sans MS] If you're not burned out yet, sure :-) May I suggest giving her Brew Potion and/or Craft Wand, so the PCs have another reason to go to her. It makes sense for her to have these, seeing as she's the only named cleric in her community. Both are fine. Considering what's behind it, they could even be higher... DC 21 it is. It's only 6d8, and at that level the rogue-type should have decent reflex bonuses. I'd make it a trap, with some absurd Disable Device DC like 35-40. [snip Bronze Sphere statblock] Looks good to me. Honestly, after the EL 15 nastiness at the entrance, the sphere ist just a minor annoyance. <OT-Rant> Does anyone else find it strange that there are basically 160,000 gp at the door guarding 211,000 gp inside the chamber? And that's assuming they're homemade... This room made me do a triple take even in 2nd Edn. </OT-Rant> Utterly reasonable. Barbarian sounds like a great fit, and deafness for 20% failure is fair. [snip] Looks good. Surprised she's only CR 7. [snip] Brilliant. You've obviously been doing this for a while now :-) Since the Trogs are mere nuisances after the Trolls, make him a Trog 2/ Warrior 4.
