Ah... unfortunately, that's not enough to go on to update the Wikipedia article; a mail archive wouldn't be considered a reliable source. Just as well, really, though; I've got enough on my plate that I didn't really have time to be hunting down books for the sake of adding info on an obscure...

OK, I was just going by Wikipedia... like I said, if you had sources other than Wikipedia, that's different. (I admit I hadn't even been aware the berbalang had mythological roots until very recently when I tried to search to see if it had appeared in the Tome of Horrors or some other OGL...

Yes, I know that's an option as a last resort, but I've already explained the reasons why this is far from an optimal solution. (Especially the last reason I mentioned -- there may be other converted creatures I'd like to use later that don't have mythological roots. In fact, since my last...

This is probably a stupid question, but what is the legal status of using a converted monster from the CC in a (third-party) Pathfinder-compatible product? I searched through the forum and couldn't find a definitive answer; the closest I could find was this thread, but the only answer it gave...
