Hello,
The MM lists Dire animals, some of which are a size category higher than their normal counterparts.
The Masters of the Wild lists legendary animals some of which are listed as being one size smaller than their dire versions, some are the same size, and some are one size larger.
The Epic Level Handbook lists only 2 legendary animals and they didn't help clear anything up.
(I'm at work and can't get exact details at the moment.)
This is a problem since enough of the critters are messed up I can't figure out which ones are wrong and which ones are correct.
Is it safe to assume that all animals follow this progression:
Animal = Size X
Dire Animal = Size X+1
Legendary Animal = Size X+2
My Druid player and I would like to make a way for him to be able to use his divine powers to transform his existing pets into dire and eventually legendary animals. He'd prefer one pet forever as opposed to ditching his pets as soon as he's outgrown them.
I am not requesting houserules, I'll post that in the appropriate forums; what I would like to know is there anything written from 1e or 2e that describes how a normal animal becomes dire or legendary?
My houserules question is here: http://enworld.cyberstreet.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=20744
Thanks for the help,
Telor
