I kind of want to give them a secondary bite attack, based on their baboonish muzzle, but aside from that textual divergence, what you said sounded pretty good. Note that the burn does damage to items as well. A fire shield type effect, perhaps, with a rider akin to the frostbrittle ability?

I like countdown.

OK, that's strange. Do we want there to be any mechanical link with the surrogate? For example, the resident (don't really like the name, BTW) gains bonuses when within X feet of him/her?

He's super-resistant to turning. I think positive energy resistance is a good way to incorporate all of those abilities.

I'm glad you added the damage on failed Will, passed Fort, because that's exactly what I was going to suggest. I like the dream haunting model for the oppress sleeper.

Unique creature. Fighter bonus feats, disease on the sword attack, positive energy resistance and improved turn resistance.

Seems appropriate. What's next? Undead fire giants?

Considering that there are no hippos in the MM, where would these stats come from for the summonned ones?

Stats sound good so far.

I think undead is the most applicable, but it's really squidgy. Maybe tomb-tainted aberration?

Those skills and dimensions sound right.

Give it more natural armor (or a profane bonus to AC) and it'll be a CR 5.

That sounds reasonable. As a standard action, in order to allow it only a single shadowclaw or two claws.

I think so, yeah.

CR 5 seems right.

I actually like the flat number for the damage. 5 a round?

Those stats work for the lessers. We'll want to boost Dex and Cha back up for the greaters.

Only one save, 100 feet, once per day, remove curse/break enchantment.

It was beguile for the amiq rasol.

Agreed to increased damage (2d6 a round?), remove curse stopping it. How about making the victim sickened each round taking damage, and sickened for a round even if they pass?
