From what I understand, knowledge skills in 4E refer to any knowledge specific uses of Arcana, Religion, History, Dungeoneering, and Nature, and don't apply to rituals. It's a situational bonus. At least, that's how my group uses it. As for the bonus to Will, I can name three other races that...

Tiamat makes people cry.

Thing is, it has to use those limited standard actions as it's move actions too. That may only use up one, maybe two in rare occasions, but it does reduce the amount of attacks. The damage on the claws could stand to be reduced a bit so I don't end up throwing a wall of dice at someone. I'll...

Well the campaign itself is being built from the bottom up. I have a general idea where it's gonna go, but I know my group, and they will attempt to do some of the most random things that can throw off a game for a few sessions, although they are usually hilarious. For the most part, I'm just...

They won't be fighting it until 29 or 30. And the full group is 6 people. Well, I figured it'd be a good idea to get the hard stuff out of the way first :P The campaign hasn't started yet, and is still in the developmental stages. But the party is starting to come together...we have a...

Well, it's not intended to be the final boss of the campaign. That would be the Queen...but I haven't statted her out completely yet. But, my players are a group of massive min/maxers. So they should be able to hold their own in a fight against the Overlord. You make a good point though. I...

I'd love to have that. Alas, I lack the funds to buy it. >_< Cthulhu is my hero.

I haven't fully written it out yet, but a Brood Sliver implants a target with a sliver larva. I figure it'll function similar to the Slaad's chaos phage disease. So, the Overlord's domination ability is completely dependent on a brood sliver implanting a character.

Anyone?

I'm working on a 4E sliver campaign, and one sliver that's giving me some trouble is the Overlord. I was hoping to get some insight on how to make this thing the best that it can be. So, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Well the Phaethon does have a head and two arms in it's picture. Just going off the picture, it looks like a buffed up, and rather mean, fire elemental.

Well, if you're changing the Phaethon's type, I think elemental would work better...since it's basically living magma. As for the size of a Xixecal...they are at least 100 ft. tall...and I personally think titanic would be a better size category for those rather than colossal...since they have...

My group has been using the multiple ability scores to saves (str or con to fort, dex or int to ref, and wis or cha to will). Other than that, we don't use much from 4th edition, as we found it lacking in customization and options. Although we do like the idea of minions to help flesh out larger...

Twelve steps because I'm designing two weapons...both made from orichalcum from the Immortals Handbook...which increases the weapon damage by twelve steps. Rules compendium only goes up four steps unfortunately.
