I understand your opinion on the bonus to Reflex saves. I chose improved cover (with bonus to Reflex saves) intentionally on the basis of I once saw a documentary in which an African tortoise survived a grass fire by withdrawing into its shell. (I wasn't able to find it again, but if you Google...
Hey guys, I haven't posted here in a while!
I noticed you were talking about giant turtles and what benefits withdrawing their limbs into their shells would get them, rules wise. Here's what I came up with a while back:
In reference to the Parodinal:
I only mentioned Intimidate because I had the thought, 'shouldn't that count? when you Intimidate someone, you scare them into doing something for you.' I can take that out if you want.
I only included Wild Talent as a bonus feat because the soulknife supposedly...
Interesting. I had the idea of Parodinals being empathic. I also gave them mind blades, but in exchange didn't give them natural weapons.
I have the parodinal almost finished. The actual game statistics are completed, I just want to add to the flavor text. As they are, they're not especially...

Perfect! It sounds like you've come up with a neat theme for it.
Coming up with a theme for each creature is part of my design process, too. I come up with a theme (like healer, shocktrooper, tank, etc), then I build the creature's spell-like abilities and special abilities around that theme...
I missed one thing about the ceratopsinal, it says "A torosaurus is about 18 feet tall..."
Also, the Lambeonal's feat line says "Ability Focus (deafening bellow) rather than "Ability Focus (resounding wail)
I've given the SLAs some consideration and I've come up with the following revised...
I've only given each a cursory glance so far, and the only immediate problem I see with the Lambeonal is that its special attack is called Deafening Bellow in the special attacks line but Resounding Wail in the Combat entry.
Also, I think these two sentences of the Ceratopsinal description need...
Yeah, I forgot to give it Art of Sigilry. BAKA! (smacks head)
Yes, my statement 'can't wield traditional exotic weapons' was intended to leave open the possibility for using strange and exotic weapons made specifically for the stegosinal's physiology. My original intent was for it to be bipedal...
