[QUOTE="Oryan77, post: 6107581, member: 18701"] I would gladly help out with whatever I can. My only concern is that I am nowhere near as good at converting monsters as you guys are. My conversions usually only consist of adding class levels or a template to NPCs, or using a similar existing 3.5 monster and slightly tweaking it to represent the 2e monster I want to use. Even then, I don't know how accurate my conversions are. I'm not sure I would be of much help in this department and I wouldn't even know where to begin. But please let me know what I can do to help and I will give it a shot. The Kamerel is probably the easiest. The Taker of Life & Dark Dweller might be the hardest. They span an entire demiplane but are only encountered in smaller single sections. So I don't know if you stat the entire creature out, or just a portion of it the way they do in the book. There is also the Hanim, but I didn't mention it because the book lists them as Human. Yet, all Hanim allow the Valgoss to use them as hosts which gives the Hanim the ability to transfer their minds into another Hanim body. This makes the Hanim act sort of like an entire community full of individuals with multiple personalities. I wasn't sure if this qualifies the Hanim as something other than just a Human. The host of a Valgoss receives a permanent loss of HP and Charisma, but the Hanim are immune to this effect. So maybe they have a human subtype? Yeah I noticed that. I am still not finished going through the book. So I will list any other creatures I find that do not appear on Echohawk's index. I think I found a few creatures from other Planescape sources (like Dead Gods) that also don't appear in Echohawk's index. I can give him my list of planar monsters if he wants to cross reference it.
