Unconverted generic 2nd Edition creatures

[Echohawk]

Your memory is fine, there is indeed an ant swarm in Volume 2 of the Realms Bestiary

bloodsipper was just completed recently, and has not been posted yet. check the new conversions thread in the homebrews forum.

Sea linnorm was in Dragon #356.

Do the gigantes differ from Antaeus and Enceladus? We've got them in the CC.

The sea linnorm has been removed from the list .

The gigantes entry in Legends & Lord presents stats for generic gigantes -- a "race of giants that Gaea gave birth to when the blood of her mutilated husband fell upon her earthly form" (aside: how charming). The entry mentions both Antaeus and Enceladus as examples of gigantes, but implies that there are other gigantes too.

So, while the other gigantes probably don't differ much from Antaeus and Enceladus, I don't think the specific entries for those two can really be counted as updates of the generic gigantes stats.

IIRC, i did a racial writeup for gigantes too. not sure what i did with that.

Echohawk, do you have the phantom spider listed anywhere?

It's found here: http://www.wizards.com/dnd/DnDShatteredCircle.asp

 

[Echohawk]

No! Or rather... yes, now I do. Well spotted!

I found that one years ago when looking for obscure monsters to convert, and filed it away in the back of my mind. I'm not sure what triggered the memory, but it sent me searching for it again.

Where are the statistics for the questing beast in Legends & Lore (and Deities and Demigods)?

I'm only finding a brief meniton of the creature in King Pellinore's entry.

I hope they're in there, because it would be fun to convert.

"The Questing Beast is a four-footed reptile resembling a camel without the humps, and having a long, serpentine tail ending in a nasty spiked ball."

Its stats can be found on page 41 of the 2nd Edition Legends & Lore
