Give me a few days and I'll dig up a mostly-complete conversion document I wrote about 10 years ago. It's actually 3.0, but it'll get you most of the way there. I didn't quite get it all stated out, either, as the campaign ended before they finished it (college ended...)
It's just a word doc listing 3rd ed DC's for traps, open lock checks, and monster stats.

SKELETON WARRIOR (template)
The skeleton warrior is a lich-like undead lord that was once a powerful fighter of at least 10th level. Legend tell that the skeleton warriors were forced into their undead lich-like state many ages ago by a powerful demigod that trapped each of their souls in a golden circlet.
A skeleton warrior appears as a roughly lich-like creature dressed in the same type of armor worn during life. Its clothes and armor usually show signs of wear and age.
A skeleton warriors sole reason for remaining on the Material Plane is to search for and regain the circlet that contains its soul.
A skeleton warrior speaks Common and any other languages it knew in life.
CREATING A SKELETON WARRIOR
“Skeleton Warrior” is a template that can be added to any humanoid creature (referred to hereafter as the “character”). The character’s type changes to “undead.” It uses all the character’s statistics and abilities except as noted here.
Hit Dice: Increase to d12
Speed: Same as the character.
AC: The skeleton warrior has +4 natural armor or the character’s natural armor whichever is better
Special Attacks: A skeleton warrior retains all the character’s special attacks and also gains those listed below. Saves have a DC of 10 + 1/2 skeleton warrior’s HD + skeleton warrior’s Charisma modifier unless noted otherwise.
Fear Aura (Su): Skeleton warriors are shrouded in an aura of fear. Creatures with less than 5 HD and in a 30-foot radius must succeed at a Will save or be affected as though by fear as cast by a sorcerer of the skeleton warrior’s level.
Damage Reduction: Skeleton warriors have damage reduction 15/+1.
Find Target (Sp): The skeleton warrior can track and find the possessor of its circlet unerringly, as though guided by discern location.
Special Qualities: A skeleton warrior retains all the character’s special qualities and gains those listed below, and also gains the undead type (Undead, page 6 in the Monster Manual).
Darkvision (Ex): Range 60 feet.
Turning Immunity (Ex): Skeleton warriors cannot be turned or controlled by clerics of any level or alignment.
Spell Resistance (Ex): SR 20 +1 per character’s level beyond level 10.

Climate/Terrrain: Any land
Organization: Solitary
Challenge Rating: Same as the character +2

Alignment: Any evil
Advancement: By character class
SKELETON WARRIOR’S CIRCLET
When a fighter is transformed into a skeleton warrior his soul is trapped in a golden circlet. Anyone possessing one of these circlets may control the skeleton warrior whose soul is stored therein within a 300-foot range. The possessor must wear the circlet on his head to control the skeleton warrior. The controller can see through the skeleton warrior’s eyes, but he may not himself move, attack, or cast spells. Other than taking a 5-foot step, the controller may take no action in a round.
The controller may force the skeleton warrior into “active mode”, thereby causing it to fight, search for treasure, and so on. In “passive mode”, the skeleton warrior stands motionless. While in passive mode, the controller cannot see through the warrior’s eyes, but may act normally (move, attack, cast spells, etc.).
Regardless of the mode of control, once the skeleton warrior and controller move to a distance greater than 300 feet of one another control is broken. It is also broken should the circlet be removed from the controller’s head.
If the circlet remains in the controller’s possession he may resume control at any time, but if it leaves his possession, the skeleton warrior will immediately stop what it is doing and proceed at double move speed to attack and destroy the former controller. If a skeleton warrior gains control of the circlet containing its soul, the warrior “dies” and vanishes. The circlet crumbles to valueless dust.
When a character first comes into possession of a circlet, he may be unaware of its significance. He may also be unaware that the skeleton warrior whose soul is contained therein is tracking him. As long as the owner of the circlet and the skeleton warrior remain on the same plane of existence, the warrior may track him.
To gain control of a skeleton warrior, the possessor must place the circlet on his head. The would-be controller cannot wear anything else on his head (including a hat, helmet, etc.). The controller must be able to see the skeleton warrior and he must spend one full round establishing control. If the character is interrupted during this time, he must succeed at a Concentration check in order to establish control in the round he is attacked or distracted.
If a character in possession of a circlet does not attempt control or fails his Concentration check, the skeleton warrior will attack him in an attempt to destroy him and gain possession of the circlet.

Trample (Ex): A triceratops can trample Medium-size or smaller creatures for 2d12+5 points of damage. Opponents who do not make attacks of opportunity (at a –4 penalty) against the triceratops can attempt a Reflex save (DC 23) to halve the damage.
Improved Grab (Ex): To use this ability, the tyrannosaurus must hit a Medium-size or smaller opponent with its bite attack. If it gets a hold, it can try to swallow the foe.
Swallow Whole (Ex): A tyrannosaurus can try to swallow a grabbed Medium-size or smaller opponent by making a successful grapple check. The swallowed creature takes 2d8+8 points of crushing damage and 8 points of acid damage per round from the tyrannosaurus’s gizzard. A swallowed creature can cut its way out by using a light slashing or piercing weapon to deal 25 points of damage to the gizzard (AC 20). Once the creature exits, muscular action closes the hole; another swallowed opponent must again cut its own way out. The tyrannosaurus’s gizzard can hold two Medium-size, eight Small, or thirty-two Tiny or smaller opponents.
Attack and hit w/ bite attack – perform grapple check as free action (grap +30) to gain hold – with its next grapple attempt (ie-attack) it can make a grapple check to swallow whole.

Rend (Ex): If a troll hits with both claw attacks, it latches onto the opponent’s body and tears the flesh. This attack automatically deals an additional 2d6+9 points of damage.
Regeneration (Ex): Fire and acid deal normal damage to a troll. If a troll loses a limb or body part, the lost portion regrows in 3d6 minutes. The creature can reattach the severed member instantly by holding it to the stump.

Special Qualities: Blindsight, split, ooze
Saves: Fort +7, Ref -2, Will –2
Improved Grab (Ex): To use this ability, the black pudding must hit with its slam attack. If it gets a hold, it can constrict.
Acid (Ex): The pudding secretes a digestive acid that dissolves organic material and metal quickly. Any melee hit deals acid damage. The pudding’s acidic touch deals 50 points of damage per round to wood or metal objects. The opponent’s armor and clothing dissolve and become useless immediately unless they succeed at Reflex saves (DC 19). The acid can dissolve stone, dealing 20 points of damage per round of contact. A metal or wooden weapon that strikes a black pudding also dissolves immediately unless it succeeds at a Reflex save (DC 19).
Constrict (Ex): A black pudding deals automatic slam and acid damage with a successful grapple check. The opponent’s clothing and armor suffer a -4 penalty to Reflex saves against the acid.
Split (Ex): Weapons deal no damage to a black pudding. Instead the creature splits into two identical puddings, each with half the original’s hit points (round down). A pudding with only 1 hit point cannot be further split.
Grapple rules w/ constrict:
Successful slam attack and deal slam and acid damage
Make an opposed grapple check as a free action (grap +10)
Successful grapple check deals 2d6 +4 slam and 2d6 acid damage
Pudding moves into PC’s square, provoking AoO’s (from others, not the grapplie).

Face/Reach: 5 ft. by 5 ft./10 ft.
Special Attacks: Berserk
Special Qualities: Construct, magic immunity, damage reduction 15/+1
Saves: Fort +3, Ref +2, Will +3
Berserk (Ex): When a flesh golem enters combat, there is a cumulative 1% chance each round that its elemental spirit breaks free and goes berserk. The uncontrolled golem goes on a rampage, attacking the nearest living creature or smashing some object smaller than itself if no creature is within reach, then moving on to spread more destruction. The golem’s creator, if within 60 feet, can try to regain control by speaking firmly and persuasively to the golem, which requires a successful Charisma check (DC 19). It takes 1 minute of rest by the golem to reset the golem’s berserk chance to 0%.
Magic Immunity (Ex): Flesh golems are immune to all spells, spell-like abilities, and supernatural effects, except as follows. Fire- and cold-based effects slow them (as the spell) for 2d6 rounds, with no saving throw. An electricity effect breaks any slow effect on the golem and cures 1 point of damage for each 3 points of damage it would otherwise deal. For example, a flesh golem hit by a lightning bolt cast by a 5th-level wizard gains back 6 hit points if the damage total is 18. The golem rolls no saving throw against electricity effects.

Nightmare
Large Outsider (Evil) Hit Dice: 6d8+18 (45 hp) Initiative: +6 Speed: 40 ft., fly 90 ft. (good) AC: 24 (-1 size, +2 Dex, +13_natural) Attacks: 2 hooves +9 melee, bite +4 melee Damage: Hoof 1d8+4 and 1d4 fire, bite 1d8+2 Face/Reach: 5 ft. by 10 ft./5 ft.

Flaming Hooves (Su): A blow from a nightmare’s hooves sets combustible materials alight.
Smoke (Su): During the excitement of battle, a nightmare often snorts and neighs with rage. This fills a 15-foot cone with a hot, sulfurous smoke that chokes and blinds opponents. Anyone in the cone must succeed at a Fortitude save (DC 16) or suffer a -2 morale penalty to all attack and damage rolls until 1d6 minutes after they leave the cone. The nightmare gains one-half concealment against creatures 5 feet away and total concealment against creatures 10 feet away. The smoke does not obscure the nightmare’s vision at all. The nightmare can suppress the smoke as a free action.
Astral Projection and Etherealness (Su): These function just like the spells of the same names as cast by a 20th-level sorcerer.
Roper
Large Magical Beast Hit Dice: 10d10+30 (85 hp) Initiative: +5 Speed: 10 ft. AC: 24 (-1 size, +1 Dex, +14 natural) Attacks: 6 strands +11 ranged, bite +8 melee Damage: Strand (see text), bite 2d6+2 Face/Reach: 5 ft. by 5 ft./10 ft. (50 ft. with strand) Special Attacks: Strands, attach, weakness Special Qualities: Electricity immunity, cold resistance 30, fire vulnerability, SR 28 Saves: Fort +10, Ref +8, Will +8 Abilities: Str 19, Dex 13, Con 17, Int 12, Wis 16, Cha_12 Skills: Climb +7, Hide +10*, Listen +13, Spot +13 Feats: Alertness, Improved Initiative, Iron Will, Weapon Focus (strand)
Strands (Ex): Most encounters with a roper begin when it fires its strong, sticky strands. The creature has six such members that can strike up to 50 feet away (no range increment). A single attack with a slashing weapon that deals at least 10 points of damage severs a strand (AC 20).
Ropers speak Terran and Undercommon
Attach (Ex): If a roper hits with a strand attack, the strand latches onto the opponent’s body. This deals no damage but draws the stuck opponent 10 feet closer each subsequent round (no attack of opportunity) unless that creature breaks free, which requires a successful Escape Artist check (DC 23) or Strength check (DC 19). The roper can draw in a creature within 10 feet of itself and bite with a +4 attack bonus, in that round.
Weakness (Ex): A roper’s strands can sap an opponent’s strength. Anyone caught by a strand must succeed at a Fortitude save (DC 18) or take 2d8 points of temporary Strength damage.
Fire Vulnerability (Ex): A roper takes double damage from fire attacks unless a save is allowed for half damage. A successful save halves the damage and a failure doubles it.

Search +10, Spot +14
Feats: Multiattack, Power Attack
Burrow (Ex): A xorn can glide through stone, dirt, or almost any other sort of earth except metal as easily as a fish swims through water. Its burrowing leaves behind no tunnel or hole, nor does it create any ripple or other signs of its presence. A move earth spell cast on an area containing a burrowing xorn flings the xorn back 30 feet, stunning the creature for 1 round unless it succeeds at a Fortitude save.
Xorn Qualities:
Immunities (Ex): Xorns are immune to fire and cold.
Resistances (Ex): Xorns have electricity resistance 10.
Half Damage from Slashing (Ex): Slashing weapons deal only half damage to xorns, with a minimum of 1 point of damage.

Tremorsense (Ex): Xorns can automatically sense the location of anything within 60 feet that is in contact with the ground.

ROT GRUB
Fine Vermin Hit Dice: 1/4d8 (1 hp) Initiative: +1 (Dex) Speed: 5 ft Armor Class: 18 (+8 size) Attacks: Slam +4 melee Damage: Slam 0 Face/Reach: 1/2 ft by 1/2 ft/0 ft Special Attacks: Burrow Special Qualities: Vermin, tremorsense Saves: Fort +2, Ref +0, Will +0
Burrow (Ex): A rot grub secretes an anesthetic when it bites. A burrowing grub can be noticed if the victim succeeds at a Wisdom check (DC 15). If successful, the victim sees strange rippling beneath his skin. If failed, the creature does not notice the grubs.
A burrowing grub deals 2d6 points of temporary Constitution damage each round. At Constitution 0, the victim dies. The grubs then look for a new host. During the first two rounds, a burrowing rot grub can be killed by applying fire to the infested skin or by cutting open the infested skin with any slashing weapon. Either method deals 2d6 points of damage to the victim, but kills the grubs. After the second round, only a remove disease can kill the grubs as they burrow to the victim’s heart and devour it (still dealing 2d6 points of temporary Constitution damage each round).

Gelatinous Cube
Huge Ooze
Hit Dice: 4d10+36 (58 hp)
Initiative: -5 (Dex)
Speed: 15 ft.
AC: 3 (-2 size, -5 Dex)
Attacks: Slam +1 melee
Damage: Slam 1d6 and 1d6 acid
Face/Reach: 10 ft. by 10 ft./10 ft.
Special Attacks: Engulf, paralysis, acid
Special Qualities: Blindsight, transparent, electricity
Saves: Fort +5, Ref –4, Will –4
Engulf (Ex): Although it moves slowly, a gelatinous cube can simply mow down Large or smaller creatures as a standard action. It cannot make a slam attack during a round in which it engulfs. The gelatinous cube merely has to move over the opponents, affecting as many as it can cover. Opponents can make opportunity attacks against the cube, but if they do so they are not entitled to a saving throw. Those who do not attempt opportunity attacks must succeed at a Reflex save (DC 13) or be engulfed; on a success, they are pushed back or aside (opponent’s choice) as the cube moves forward. Engulfed creatures are subject to the cube’s paralysis and acid, and are considered to be grappled and trapped within its body.
Paralysis (Ex): Gelatinous cubes secrete an anesthetizing slime. A target hit by a cube’s melee or engulf attack must succeed at a Fortitude save (DC 16) or be paralyzed for 3d6 rounds. The cube can automatically engulf a paralyzed opponent.
Acid (Ex): A gelatinous cube’s acid does not harm metal or stone.
Transparent (Ex): Gelatinous cubes are hard to see, even under ideal conditions, and it takes a successful Spot check (DC 15) to notice one. Creatures who fail to notice a cube and walk into it are automatically engulfed.
Drowning: Character can hold breath a number of rounds equal to twice his Con score.
After that point the character must make a Con check (DC 10 +1/round) every round.
After a failed Con check she falls unconscious (0 hp’s); the next round she falls to –1 hp and is dying; the third round she drowns.

Flaming Iron – Will save (DC 13)
1d4 metal items on each person affected by heat metal
unattended magic items receive a save with a bonus of 2+ half (creator’s) caster level
Each round – Will save (DC 18) or one non-magical item on person turned into iron and automatically affected by Heat Metal
Unattended, nonmagical metal gets no saving throw. Enchanted metal is allowed a saving throw against the spell. An item in a creature’s possession uses the creature’s saving throw (unless its own is higher).
A creature takes fire damage if its equipment is heated. It takes full damage if its armor is affected or if it’s holding, touching, wearing, or carrying metal weighing one-fifth of its weight. The creature takes minimum damage (1 point or 2 points; see the table) if it’s not wearing metal armor and the metal that it’s carrying weighs less than one-fifth of its weight.
Round Temperature Damage
----- ----------- ------
1 Warm None
2 Hot 1d4 points
3–5 Searing 2d4 points
6 Hot 1d4 points

Any cold intense enough to damage the creature negates heat damage from the spell (and vice versa) on a point-for-point basis.

With SIGIL 4 – Key hangs on wall next to door
Door – If the door is touched in any way except by picking the lock, player must make a Will Save (DC 27) or activate an Insect Plague – 20 ft – 20 rounds
A horde of insects swarm in a thick cloud when the character casts this spell. The insects limit vision to 10 feet, and spellcasting within the cloud is impossible. Creatures inside the insect plague, regardless of Armor Class, sustain 1 point of damage at the end of each round they remain within. Invisibility is no protection. All creatures with 2 or fewer HD are driven from the cloud at their fastest possible speed in a random direction and flee until they are at least 100 feet away from the insects. Creatures with 3 to 5 HD flee as well, though a Will save negates this effect. (This urge to flee is an extraordinary fear effect.)
Heavy smoke drives off insects within its bounds. Fire also drives insects away. A single torch is ineffective against this vast horde of insects. Lightning, cold, and ice are likewise ineffective, while a strong wind (21+ mph) that covers the entire plague area disperses the insects and ends the spell.
Picked Lock attempt summons a Summon Swarm of insects. –NO save – 10 ft – 20 rounds
A swarm of little creatures carpets the effect’s area, viciously attacking all other creatures there. A creature in the swarm who takes no actions other than fighting off the swarming creatures takes 1 point of damage on its turn. A creature in the swarm who takes any other action, including leaving the swarm, takes 1d4 +6 points of damage. Spellcasting or concentrating on spells within the swarm is impossible.
Chests – 1d4 bites if touched
Fort save (DC 18) or die/ 4d10 dmg if save

Combat
A manticore begins most attacks with a volley of spikes, then closes.
Spikes (Ex): With a snap of its tail, a manticore can loose a volley of six spikes as a standard action. This attack has a range of 180 feet with no range increment. A spike threatens a critical hit on a natural attack roll of 19 or 20. The creature can launch only twenty-four spikes in any one day.

Duration – 40 hours
Enchantment Spell Resistance: Yes
The character causes an object or location to emanate magical vibrations that repel either a specific order of intelligent creature or creatures of a particular alignment, as defined by the character. The particular sort of creature to be affected must be named specifically. Larger groups (types and subtypes) are not specific enough. Likewise, the specific alignment must be named. A compulsion forces creatures of the designated sort or alignment to abandon the area or item, never willingly returning to it while the spell is in effect. A creature who makes a successful saving throw can stay in the area or touch the item, but feels very uncomfortable doing so. This discomfort reduces the creature's Dexterity score by 4 points.

Special Attacks: Breath weapon
Special Qualities: Construct, magic immunity, damage

Saves: Fort +6, Ref +5, Will +6
Breath Weapon (Su): First or second round of combat-cloud of poisonous gas, 10-foot cube directly in front of the golem lasting 1 round, free action every 1d4+1 rounds; Fortitude save (DC 17), initial damage 1d4 temporary Constitution, secondary damage death.
Magic Immunity (Ex): An iron golem is immune to all spells, spell-like abilities, and supernatural effects, except as follows. An electricity effect slows it (as the slow spell) for 3 rounds, with no saving throw. A fire effect breaks any slow effect on the golem and cures 1 point of damage for each 3 points of damage it would otherwise deal. For example, a iron golem hit by a fireball cast by a 5th-level wizard gains back 6 hit points if the damage total is 18. The golem rolls no saving throw against fire effects.
Rust Vulnerability (Ex): An iron golem is affected normally by rust attacks, such as that of a rust monster or a rusting grasp spell.
RUSSET MOLD
CR 6
immune to all attacks involving fire, weapons, and cold,
vulnerable to applications of alcohol, acid, and other things harmful to plants (such as salt).
Russet mold is killed instantly if cure disease or continual light is cast on it.
Living creatures that disturb it or come within 5 feet of it cause the russet mold to release a cloud of spores in a 5-foot radius cloud. All those in the area must succeed at a Fortitude save (DC 15) or take 2d6 points of temporary Constitution damage. Another Fortitude save (DC 15) is required 1 minute later to avoid taking 3d6 points of temporary Constitution damage.
A creature killed by russet mold will rise as a vegepygmy (q.v.) 1d4+20 hours later, unless a hold plant spell is cast within 1 hour. Hold plant does not actually prevent the creature from becoming a vegepygmy, but it does delay the process for the duration of the spell. After that, only a wish or miracle can prevent the creature rising.
Russet mold is lumpy and has a texture similar to cold porridge. Small hair-like growths stand upright and constantly waver back and forth.

Once inside, the opponent takes 2d8+12 points of crushing damage plus 8 points of acid damage per round from the worm’s gizzard. A swallowed creature can cut its way out by using a light slashing or piercing weapon to deal 25 points of damage to the gizzard (AC 20). Once the creature exits, muscular action closes the hole; another swallowed opponent must cut its own way out.

Skills: Listen +7, Spot +8
Feats: Combat Reflexes
Hydras can attack with all their heads at no penalty, even if they move or charge during the round.
Feats: A hydra’s Combat Reflexes feat allows it to use all its heads for attacks of opportunity each round.
A hydra can be killed either by severing all its heads or by slaying its body. To sever a head, an opponent must hit the monster’s neck with a slashing weapon and deal damage equal to the hydra’s original hit point total, divided by its original number of heads, (10 points) in one blow. (The player says where the attack is aimed just before making the attack roll.) For example, if a five-headed hydra has 52 hp, a single blow dealing 10 or more points of damage severs a head (52 / 5 = 10.4, rounded down to 10). Any excess damage is lost. A severed head dies, and a natural reflex seals the neck shut to prevent further blood loss.
Lernaean Hydra
The only way to slay a Lernaean hydra normally is to sever all its heads. However, each time a head is severed, two new heads spring from the stump in 1d4 rounds. A Lernaean hydra can never have more than twice its original number of heads at any one time, and any extra heads it gains beyond its original number wither and die within a day.
To prevent a severed head from growing back into two, at least 5 points of fire or acid damage must be dealt to the stump (AC 19) before the new heads appear.
Spells such as disintegrate, finger of death, and slay living kill a Lernaean hydra outright if they succeed. If the spell deals damage on a successful save, that damage is directed against one of the hydra’s heads.

The skeleton warrior is a lich-like undead lord that was once a powerful fighter of at least 10th level. Legend tell that the skeleton warriors were forced into their undead lich-like state many ages ago by a powerful demigod that trapped each of their souls in a golden circlet.
A skeleton warrior appears as a roughly lich-like creature dressed in the same type of armor worn during life. Its clothes and armor usually show signs of wear and age. A skeleton warriors sole reason for remaining on the Material Plane is to search for and regain the circlet that contains its soul. A skeleton warrior speaks Common and any other languages it knew in life.CREATING A SKELETON WARRIOR
“Skeleton Warrior” is a template that can be added to any humanoid creature (referred to hereafter as the “character”). The character’s type changes to “undead.” It uses all the character’s statistics and abilities except as noted here.
Hit Dice: Increase to d12 Speed: Same as the character. AC: The skeleton warrior has +4 natural armor or the character’s natural armor whichever is better Special Attacks: A skeleton warrior retains all the character’s special attacks and also gains those listed below. Saves have a DC of 10 + 1/2 skeleton warrior’s HD + skeleton warrior’s Charisma modifier unless noted otherwise. Fear Aura (Su): Skeleton warriors are shrouded in an aura of fear. Creatures with less than 5 HD and in a 30-foot radius must succeed at a Will save or be affected as though by fear as cast by a sorcerer of the skeleton warrior’s level. Damage Reduction: Skeleton warriors have damage reduction 15/+1. Find Target (Sp): The skeleton warrior can track and find the possessor of its circlet unerringly, as though guided by discern location. Special Qualities: A skeleton warrior retains all the character’s special qualities and gains those listed below, and also gains the undead type (Undead, page 6 in the Monster Manual). Darkvision (Ex): Range 60 feet. Turning Immunity (Ex): Skeleton warriors cannot be turned or controlled by clerics of any level or alignment. Spell Resistance (Ex): SR 20 +1 per character’s level beyond level 10. Saves: Same as the character Abilities: A skeleton warrior gains +4 to Strength and +2 to Wisdom and Charisma, but being undead, has no Constitution score. Skills: Skeleton warriors gain a +8 racial bonus to Intimidate checks and a +6 racial bonus to Sense Motive and Spot checks. Otherwise, same as character. Feats: Same as the character. Climate/Terrrain: Any land Organization: Solitary Challenge Rating: Same as the character +2 Treasure: Standard Alignment: Any evil Advancement: By character classSKELETON WARRIOR’S CIRCLET
When a fighter is transformed into a skeleton warrior his soul is trapped in a golden circlet. Anyone possessing one of these circlets may control the skeleton warrior whose soul is stored therein within a 300-foot range. The possessor must wear the circlet on his head to control the skeleton warrior. The controller can see through the skeleton warrior’s eyes, but he may not himself move, attack, or cast spells. Other than taking a 5-foot step, the controller may take no action in a round.
The controller may force the skeleton warrior into “active mode”, thereby causing it to fight, search for treasure, and so on. In “passive mode”, the skeleton warrior stands motionless. While in passive mode, the controller cannot see through the warrior’s eyes, but may act normally (move, attack, cast spells, etc.). Regardless of the mode of control, once the skeleton warrior and controller move to a distance greater than 300 feet of one another control is broken. It is also broken should the circlet be removed from the controller’s head. If the circlet remains in the controller’s possession he may resume control at any time, but if it leaves his possession, the skeleton warrior will immediately stop what it is doing and proceed at double move speed to attack and destroy the former controller. If a skeleton warrior gains control of the circlet containing its soul, the warrior “dies” and vanishes. The circlet crumbles to valueless dust. When a character first comes into possession of a circlet, he may be unaware of its significance. He may also be unaware that the skeleton warrior whose soul is contained therein is tracking him. As long as the owner of the circlet and the skeleton warrior remain on the same plane of existence, the warrior may track him. To gain control of a skeleton warrior, the possessor must place the circlet on his head. The would-be controller cannot wear anything else on his head (including a hat, helmet, etc.). The controller must be able to see the skeleton warrior and he must spend one full round establishing control. If the character is interrupted during this time, he must succeed at a Concentration check in order to establish control in the round he is attacked or distracted. If a character in possession of a circlet does not attempt control or fails his Concentration check, the skeleton warrior will attack him in an attempt to destroy him and gain possession of the circlet.SAMPLE SKELETON WARRIOR
This example uses a 12th-level human fighter as the character.

Trample (Ex): A triceratops can trample Medium-size or smaller creatures for 2d12+5 points of damage. Opponents who do not make attacks of opportunity (at a –4 penalty) against the triceratops can attempt a Reflex save (DC 23) to halve the damage.
Improved Grab (Ex): To use this ability, the tyrannosaurus must hit a Medium-size or smaller opponent with its bite attack. If it gets a hold, it can try to swallow the foe.
Swallow Whole (Ex): A tyrannosaurus can try to swallow a grabbed Medium-size or smaller opponent by making a successful grapple check. The swallowed creature takes 2d8+8 points of crushing damage and 8 points of acid damage per round from the tyrannosaurus’s gizzard. A swallowed creature can cut its way out by using a light slashing or piercing weapon to deal 25 points of damage to the gizzard (AC 20). Once the creature exits, muscular action closes the hole; another swallowed opponent must again cut its own way out. The tyrannosaurus’s gizzard can hold two Medium-size, eight Small, or thirty-two Tiny or smaller opponents.
Attack and hit w/ bite attack – perform grapple check as free action (grap +30) to gain hold – with its next grapple attempt (ie-attack) it can make a grapple check to swallow whole.

The opponent’s armor and clothing dissolve and become useless immediately unless they succeed at Reflex saves (DC 19). The acid can dissolve stone, dealing 20 points of damage per round of contact. A metal or wooden weapon that strikes a black pudding also dissolves immediately unless it succeeds at a Reflex save (DC 19).
Constrict (Ex): A black pudding deals automatic slam and acid damage with a successful grapple check. The opponent’s clothing and armor suffer a -4 penalty to Reflex saves against the acid.
Split (Ex): Weapons deal no damage to a black pudding. Instead the creature splits into two identical puddings, each with half the original’s hit points (round down). A pudding with only 1 hit point cannot be further split.

Special Qualities: Construct, magic immunity, damage reduction 15/+1
Saves: Fort +3, Ref +2, Will +3
Berserk (Ex): When a flesh golem enters combat, there is a cumulative 1% chance each round that its elemental spirit breaks free and goes berserk. The uncontrolled golem goes on a rampage, attacking the nearest living creature or smashing some object smaller than itself if no creature is within reach, then moving on to spread more destruction. The golem’s creator, if within 60 feet, can try to regain control by speaking firmly and persuasively to the golem, which requires a successful Charisma check (DC 19). It takes 1 minute of rest by the golem to reset the golem’s berserk chance to 0%.
Magic Immunity (Ex): Flesh golems are immune to all spells, spell-like abilities, and supernatural effects, except as follows. Fire- and cold-based effects slow them (as the spell) for 2d6 rounds, with no saving throw. An electricity effect breaks any slow effect on the golem and cures 1 point of damage for each 3 points of damage it would otherwise deal. For example, a flesh golem hit by a lightning bolt cast by a 5th-level wizard gains back 6 hit points if the damage total is 18. The golem rolls no saving throw against electricity effects.

Flaming Hooves (Su): A blow from a nightmare’s hooves sets combustible materials alight.
Smoke (Su): During the excitement of battle, a nightmare often snorts and neighs with rage. This fills a 15-foot cone with a hot, sulfurous smoke that chokes and blinds opponents. Anyone in the cone must succeed at a Fortitude save (DC 16) or suffer a -2 morale penalty to all attack and damage rolls until 1d6 minutes after they leave the cone. The nightmare gains one-half concealment against creatures 5 feet away and total concealment against creatures 10 feet away. The smoke does not obscure the nightmare’s vision at all. The nightmare can suppress the smoke as a free action.
Astral Projection and Etherealness (Su): These function just like the spells of the same names as cast by a 20th-level sorcerer.

Strands (Ex): Most encounters with a roper begin when it fires its strong, sticky strands. The creature has six such members that can strike up to 50 feet away (no range increment). A single attack with a slashing weapon that deals at least 10 points of damage severs a strand (AC 20).
Ropers speak Terran and Undercommon
Attach (Ex): If a roper hits with a strand attack, the strand latches onto the opponent’s body. This deals no damage but draws the stuck opponent 10 feet closer each subsequent round (no attack of opportunity) unless that creature breaks free, which requires a successful Escape Artist check (DC 23) or Strength check (DC 19). The roper can draw in a creature within 10 feet of itself and bite with a +4 attack bonus, in that round.
Weakness (Ex): A roper’s strands can sap an opponent’s strength. Anyone caught by a strand must succeed at a Fortitude save (DC 18) or take 2d8 points of temporary Strength damage.
Fire Vulnerability (Ex): A roper takes double damage from fire attacks unless a save is allowed for half damage. A successful save halves the damage and a failure doubles it.

Burrow (Ex): A xorn can glide through stone, dirt, or almost any other sort of earth except metal as easily as a fish swims through water. Its burrowing leaves behind no tunnel or hole, nor does it create any ripple or other signs of its presence. A move earth spell cast on an area containing a burrowing xorn flings the xorn back 30 feet, stunning the creature for 1 round unless it succeeds at a Fortitude save.
Xorn Qualities:

Resistances (Ex): Xorns have electricity resistance 10.
Half Damage from Slashing (Ex): Slashing weapons deal only half damage to xorns, with a minimum of 1 point of damage.

ROT GRUB
Fine Vermin Hit Dice: 1/4d8 (1 hp) Initiative: +1 (Dex) Speed: 5 ft Armor Class: 18 (+8 size) Attacks: Slam +4 melee Damage: Slam 0 Face/Reach: 1/2 ft by 1/2 ft/0 ft Special Attacks: Burrow Special Qualities: Vermin, tremorsense Saves: Fort +2, Ref +0, Will +0
Burrow (Ex): A rot grub secretes an anesthetic when it bites. A burrowing grub can be noticed if the victim succeeds at a Wisdom check (DC 15). If successful, the victim sees strange rippling beneath his skin. If failed, the creature does not notice the grubs.
A burrowing grub deals 2d6 points of temporary Constitution damage each round. At Constitution 0, the victim dies. The grubs then look for a new host. During the first two rounds, a burrowing rot grub can be killed by applying fire to the infested skin or by cutting open the infested skin with any slashing weapon. Either method deals 2d6 points of damage to the victim, but kills the grubs. After the second round, only a remove disease can kill the grubs as they burrow to the victim’s heart and devour it (still dealing 2d6 points of temporary Constitution damage each round).Otyugh

(15 ft. with tentacle) Special Attacks: Improved grab, constrict 1d6, disease Special Qualities: Scent Saves: Fort +3, Ref +2, Will +6
Improved Grab (Ex): To use this ability, the otyugh must hit a Medium-size or smaller opponent with a tentacle attack. If it gets a hold, it can constrict.
Constrict (Ex): An otyugh deals automatic tentacle damage to a Medium-size or smaller opponent with a successful grapple check.
Disease (Ex): Filth fever [bite, Fortitude save (DC 12), incubation period 1d3 days; damage 1d3 temporary Dexterity and 1d3 temporary Constitution.]

Adhesive (Ex): The thornslinger's central plant core is covered in a strong adhesive dew. Anything that touches this plant will be stuck to it and held immobile unless a Strength check (DC 14) is successful. Victims caught by this adhesive are automatically subject to the creature's acid attack. Victims can try a new Strength check each round.

AC: 3 (-2 size, -5 Dex)
Attacks: Slam +1 melee
Damage: Slam 1d6 and 1d6 acid
Face/Reach: 10 ft. by 10 ft./10 ft.
Special Attacks: Engulf, paralysis, acid
Special Qualities: Blindsight, transparent, electricity
Saves: Fort +5, Ref –4, Will –4
Engulf (Ex): Although it moves slowly, a gelatinous cube can simply mow down Large or smaller creatures as a standard action. It cannot make a slam attack during a round in which it engulfs. The gelatinous cube merely has to move over the opponents, affecting as many as it can cover. Opponents can make opportunity attacks against the cube, but if they do so they are not entitled to a saving throw. Those who do not attempt opportunity attacks must succeed at a Reflex save (DC 13) or be engulfed; on a success, they are pushed back or aside (opponent’s choice) as the cube moves forward. Engulfed creatures are subject to the cube’s paralysis and acid, and are considered to be grappled and trapped within its body.
Paralysis (Ex): Gelatinous cubes secrete an anesthetizing slime. A target hit by a cube’s melee or engulf attack must succeed at a Fortitude save (DC 16) or be paralyzed for 3d6 rounds. The cube can automatically engulf a paralyzed opponent.
Acid (Ex): A gelatinous cube’s acid does not harm metal or stone.
Transparent (Ex): Gelatinous cubes are hard to see, even under ideal conditions, and it takes a successful Spot check (DC 15) to notice one. Creatures who fail to notice a cube and walk into it are automatically engulfed.
Drowning: Character can hold breath a number of rounds equal to twice his Con score.
After that point the character must make a Con check (DC 10 +1/round) every round.
After a failed Con check she falls unconscious (0 hp’s); the next round she falls to –1 hp and is dying; the third round she drowns.

Flaming Iron – Will save (DC 13)
1d4 metal items on each person affected by heat metal
unattended magic items receive a save with a bonus of 2+ half (creator’s) caster level
Each round – Will save (DC 18) or one non-magical item on person turned into iron and automatically affected by Heat Metal
Unattended, nonmagical metal gets no saving throw. Enchanted metal is allowed a saving throw against the spell. An item in a creature’s possession uses the creature’s saving throw (unless its own is higher).
A creature takes fire damage if its equipment is heated. It takes full damage if its armor is affected or if it’s holding, touching, wearing, or carrying metal weighing one-fifth of its weight. The creature takes minimum damage (1 point or 2 points; see the table) if it’s not wearing metal armor and the metal that it’s carrying weighs less than one-fifth of its weight.
Round Temperature Damage
----- ----------- ------
1 Warm None
2 Hot 1d4 points
3–5 Searing 2d4 points
6 Hot 1d4 points
7 Warm None
Any cold intense enough to damage the creature negates heat damage from the spell (and vice versa) on a point-for-point basis.
C9
With SIGIL 4 – Key hangs on wall next to door
Door – If the door is touched in any way except by picking the lock, player must make a Will Save (DC 27) or activate an Insect Plague – 20 ft – 20 rounds
A horde of insects swarm in a thick cloud when the character casts this spell. The insects limit vision to 10 feet, and spellcasting within the cloud is impossible. Creatures inside the insect plague, regardless of Armor Class, sustain 1 point of damage at the end of each round they remain within. Invisibility is no protection. All creatures with 2 or fewer HD are driven from the cloud at their fastest possible speed in a random direction and flee until they are at least 100 feet away from the insects. Creatures with 3 to 5 HD flee as well, though a Will save negates this effect. (This urge to flee is an extraordinary fear effect.)
Heavy smoke drives off insects within its bounds. Fire also drives insects away. A single torch is ineffective against this vast horde of insects. Lightning, cold, and ice are likewise ineffective, while a strong wind (21+ mph) that covers the entire plague area disperses the insects and ends the spell.
Picked Lock attempt summons a Summon Swarm of insects. –NO save – 10 ft – 20 rounds
A swarm of little creatures carpets the effect’s area, viciously attacking all other creatures there. A creature in the swarm who takes no actions other than fighting off the swarming creatures takes 1 point of damage on its turn. A creature in the swarm who takes any other action, including leaving the swarm, takes 1d4 +6 points of damage. Spellcasting or concentrating on spells within the swarm is impossible.
Chests – 1d4 bites if touched
Fort save (DC 18) or die/ 4d10 dmg if save

A manticore begins most attacks with a volley of spikes, then closes.
Spikes (Ex): With a snap of its tail, a manticore can loose a volley of six spikes as a standard action. This attack has a range of 180 feet with no range increment. A spike threatens a critical hit on a natural attack roll of 19 or 20. The creature can launch only twenty-four spikes in any one day.

Duration – 40 hours
Enchantment Spell Resistance: Yes
The character causes an object or location to emanate magical vibrations that repel either a specific order of intelligent creature or creatures of a particular alignment, as defined by the character. The particular sort of creature to be affected must be named specifically. Larger groups (types and subtypes) are not specific enough. Likewise, the specific alignment must be named. A compulsion forces creatures of the designated sort or alignment to abandon the area or item, never willingly returning to it while the spell is in effect. A creature who makes a successful saving throw can stay in the area or touch the item, but feels very uncomfortable doing so. This discomfort reduces the creature's Dexterity score by 4 points.

Breath Weapon (Su): First or second round of combat-cloud of poisonous gas, 10-foot cube directly in front of the golem lasting 1 round, free action every 1d4+1 rounds; Fortitude save (DC 17), initial damage 1d4 temporary Constitution, secondary damage death.
Magic Immunity (Ex): An iron golem is immune to all spells, spell-like abilities, and supernatural effects, except as follows. An electricity effect slows it (as the slow spell) for 3 rounds, with no saving throw. A fire effect breaks any slow effect on the golem and cures 1 point of damage for each 3 points of damage it would otherwise deal. For example, a iron golem hit by a fireball cast by a 5th-level wizard gains back 6 hit points if the damage total is 18. The golem rolls no saving throw against fire effects.
Rust Vulnerability (Ex): An iron golem is affected normally by rust attacks, such as that of a rust monster or a rusting grasp spell.
RUSSET MOLD
CR 6
immune to all attacks involving fire, weapons, and cold,
vulnerable to applications of alcohol, acid, and other things harmful to plants (such as salt).
Russet mold is killed instantly if cure disease or continual light is cast on it.
Living creatures that disturb it or come within 5 feet of it cause the russet mold to release a cloud of spores in a 5-foot radius cloud. All those in the area must succeed at a Fortitude save (DC 15) or take 2d6 points of temporary Constitution damage. Another Fortitude save (DC 15) is required 1 minute later to avoid taking 3d6 points of temporary Constitution damage. A creature killed by russet mold will rise as a vegepygmy (q.v.) 1d4+20 hours later, unless a hold plant spell is cast within 1 hour. Hold plant does not actually prevent the creature from becoming a vegepygmy, but it does delay the process for the duration of the spell. After that, only a wish or miracle can prevent the creature rising. Russet mold is lumpy and has a texture similar to cold porridge. Small hair-like growths stand upright and constantly waver back and forth.D7

Swallow Whole (Ex): A purple worm can try to swallow a grabbed opponent of Huge or smaller size by making a successful grapple check. Once inside, the opponent takes 2d8+12 points of crushing damage plus 8 points of acid damage per round from the worm’s gizzard. A swallowed creature can cut its way out by using a light slashing or piercing weapon to deal 25 points of damage to the gizzard (AC 20). Once the creature exits, muscular action closes the hole; another swallowed opponent must cut its own way out.
The worm’s interior can hold one Huge, four Large, sixteen Medium-size, or sixty-four Small or smaller opponents.
Poison (Ex): Sting, Fortitude save (DC 24); initial damage 1d6 temporary Strength, secondary damage 2d6 temporary Strength.
Tremorsense (Ex): A purple worm can automatically sense the location of anything within 60 feet that is in contact with the ground.

Nine-Headed Hydra
Huge Beast
Hit Dice: 9d10+45 (94 hp)
Initiative: +1 (Dex)
Speed: 20 ft., swim 20 ft.
AC: 15 (-2 size, +1 Dex, +6 natural)
Attacks: 9 bites +9 melee
Damage: Bite 1d10+5
Face/Reach: 20 ft. by 20 ft./10 ft.
Special Qualities: Scent
Saves: Fort +11, Ref +7, Will +3
Abilities: Str 21, Dex 12, Con 20,
Int 2, Wis 10, Cha 9
Skills: Listen +7, Spot +8
Feats: Combat Reflexes
Hydras can attack with all their heads at no penalty, even if they move or charge during the round.
Feats: A hydra’s Combat Reflexes feat allows it to use all its heads for attacks of opportunity each round.
A hydra can be killed either by severing all its heads or by slaying its body. To sever a head, an opponent must hit the monster’s neck with a slashing weapon and deal damage equal to the hydra’s original hit point total, divided by its original number of heads, (10 points) in one blow. (The player says where the attack is aimed just before making the attack roll.) For example, if a five-headed hydra has 52 hp, a single blow dealing 10 or more points of damage severs a head (52 / 5 = 10.4, rounded down to 10). Any excess damage is lost. A severed head dies, and a natural reflex seals the neck shut to prevent further blood loss.
Lernaean Hydra
The only way to slay a Lernaean hydra normally is to sever all its heads. However, each time a head is severed, two new heads spring from the stump in 1d4 rounds. A Lernaean hydra can never have more than twice its original number of heads at any one time, and any extra heads it gains beyond its original number wither and die within a day.
To prevent a severed head from growing back into two, at least 5 points of fire or acid damage must be dealt to the stump (AC 19) before the new heads appear.
Spells such as disintegrate, finger of death, and slay living kill a Lernaean hydra outright if they succeed. If the spell deals damage on a successful save, that damage is directed against one of the hydra’s heads.
Troll (4)
Large Giant Hit Dice: 6d8+36 (63 hp) Initiative: +2 (Dex) Speed: 30 ft. AC: 18 (-1 size, +2 Dex, +7 natural) Attacks: 2 claws +9 melee, bite +4 melee Damage: Claw 1d6+6, bite 1d6+3 Face/Reach: 5 ft. by 5 ft./10 ft. Special Attacks: Rend 2d6+9 Special Qualities: Regeneration 5, scent, darkvision 90 ft. Saves: Fort +11, Ref +4, Will +3 Abilities: Str 23, Dex 14, Con 23, Int 6, Wis 9, Cha 6 Skills: Listen +5, Spot +5
Rend (Ex): If a troll hits with both claw attacks, it latches onto the opponent’s body and tears the flesh. This attack automatically deals an additional 2d6+9 points of damage.
Regeneration (Ex): Fire and acid deal normal damage to a troll. If a troll loses a limb or body part, the lost portion regrows in 3d6 minutes. The creature can reattach the severed member instantly by holding it to the stump.
Shambling Mound (3)
Large Plant Hit Dice: 8d8+24 (60 hp) Initiative: +0 Speed: 20 ft. AC: 20 (-1 size, +11 natural) Attacks: 2 slams +10 melee Damage: Slam 2d6+5 Face/Reach: 5 ft by 5 ft./10 ft. Special Attacks: Improved grab, constrict 2d6+7 Special Qualities: Plant, electricity immunity, fire resistance 30 Saves: Fort +9, Ref +2, Will +2 Abilities: Str 21, Dex 10, Con 17, Int 7, Wis 10, Cha 9 Skills: Hide +12, Listen +4, Move Silently +4
Improved Grab (Ex): To use this ability, the shambler must hit an opponent of up to Large size with both arm attacks. If it gets a hold, it can constrict.
Constrict (Ex): A shambler deals 2d6+7 points of damage with a successful grapple check against Large or smaller creatures. The shambler can still move but cannot take any attack actions when constricting.
Plant: Immune to mind-influencing effects, poison, sleep, paralysis, stunning, and polymorphing. Not subject to critical hits.
Electricity Immunity (Ex): Shamblers take no damage from electricity. Instead, any electrical attack (such as shocking grasp or lightning bolt) used against a shambler grants it 1d4 points of temporary Constitution. The shambler loses these points at the rate of 1 per hour.

Locked Tower Door: Open Lock (DC 30)
