Completed Creatures Index & Current Conversions

[Cleon]

Rick Moranis is on the loose! Someone, or something, has magnified a bunch of microbes into macrobes that might just decide to eat your PC. We have giant versions of the amoeba, ceratium, elphidium, euglena, globigerina, gonyaulax (and gonyaulax swarm), noctiluca, paramecium, and peridinium. To top it off, there's the slime mold, which has amoeboid, swarm, slug, and sporocarp forms of varying CRs. It's like high school biology run wild!

Huzzah!

I've removed them from the Creatures Awaiting Upload & Current Conversions list.

Mites and Ghoulies
This week our monsters selection is divided in twain. Five are small but dangerous: the monkey-like rautym can dance together to produce mighty magic, the one-eyed tatalla are miniature assassins, and the pasari-nimal warrior, noble and calipha are horrible little ant-folk. The other five are undead or creatures that resemble undead. The human-headed bird spirit hama, the malevolent darksider, and the magic-item-possessing tarsardar may look ghostly but are not undead, while the drow vampire and kender vampire are genuine undead.

Aquatic Menaces
What horrors lurk in the water has long concerned prudent adventurers, and here are 10 more to add to their anxieties. The ocean hides the mighty Zakharan kraken and the colonial coral worm. A crab swarm of lesser monstrous crab may scuttle anywhere there is water, while the giant sand crab prefers beaches. The crystal nipper is a nasty little relative of the rot grub that fortunately only lives in glacial seas. Staying away from the ocean is not enough to escape these threats, for an entrails-eating kappa-ti turtle-creature or its vampiric kappa relative could be hiding in any freshwater stream or pool, or a pack of froglike fin-winged water leapers. Finally, the delphon, or songshark, swims the interplanar river Oceanus bewildering creatures with its music, although it only devours sapients when it's very hungry.

Snakes and Friends
Five serpents and five monstrous humanoids slither and stomp their way into the Creature Catalog this week. On the snake side, we have the poisonous giant fanged python, giant cobra, and aeserpent, as well as the constricting teak serpent. Snake grass is the serpent of the plant kingdom, and, among our monstrous humanoids, the megalofolk revere the yuan-ti. We also have the harrier and scathe as well as the cave kala and earth kala.

Good-oh!

I've amended the Creatures Awaiting Upload & Current Conversions list.

Incidentally, the Homebrew version of the Harrier has all its saves 1 point too low (I believe it used the Scathe's saves by mistake).

I changed them to the correct values (Fort +6, Ref +7, Will +5) in the version I uploaded to the Creature Catalog.

I sometimes find corrections like that as I upload things, too.

Yes, we keep on double-checking these beasties and still miss important errors like having the saves.

Vermin!

A whole bunch of creepy-crawlies invade the CC from the Cambrian era! Allow us to present giant versions of amiskwia, leanchoilia, marella, ondotogriphus, and wiwaxia. There's also the ship-sinking squid-like anomalocaris, the pilfering yohoia, and the armored ottoia and sanctacaris. Rounding out the batch is the devil wyrm, a subterranean worm-like magical beast that enjoys munching on humanoids. Player characters beware!

Hmm, "Vermin" isn't a very exciting title. I'd have gone for something more dramatic like "Cambrian Crawlers!".

I'll amend the Creatures Awaiting Upload & Current Conversions list.

I'm just getting a Database Error when I try to edit the conversion list - looks like I'll have to wait until the techies finish their maintenance of the server.
