Not only dragons. Lots of "good" creatures were good only because they had white hats. Much like some PC:s, really. ;)

Apologies if I'm in the wrong forum, but here goes: The Gaming in Code Blog, run by a DDI software dev, just posted a walkthrough of how to set up querystrings when linking to the DDI Compendium. It's almost Hebrew to me (not quite), but it lets you set up a kind of external search engine for...

Yeah, most lurkers have a power that lets them bugger off (incorporeal) or become really hard to hit (gargoyles) or similar (bugbear strangler's human shield ability). The Iron Dragon gets an incentive to hide until Iron Wing Defense recharges, and then move in, hit and move out and wait for...

Why not go straight to the source and use vrocks? L13 if we're talking 4E, and you said there was demon stuff involved already. Doing a Compendium search for MM1 flyers at level 10-14, adult green/blue/black dragons, wyverns and manticores stick out too. Fake edit: Drat. Blackguard...

Eh, I think both are awesome. And I'm not usually a fan of Wayne Reynold's stuff. Rock on, Paizo.:)

Lore section? What lore section? :uhoh: Oh that one. Yeah, probably a razor hydra. Didn't expect them to pass up an opportunity to use Yet Another Elemental Template Beast

Okay, so the Heroslayer is the big one in the illustration (5 heads, the smaller one has 4). Also, "582, 388, and 194" hitpoints? Sure, it's the bloodied value, and the upper and lower quartile, but it still looks like a hassle to remember in combat. Any guesses to what the small one is? Pale...

Well you can't now, because Wizards.com is down for maintenance, but there are links to both the module and the quickstart rules on the page I link in my OP.

And people say it's an unrealistic power...

I can totally imagine an Otus Remorhaz. Also, he drew stuff for Star Control 2 (AKA The Ur-Quan Masters)? Nifty!

One wonders if they'll release H2 and H3 too, yes. I doubt it, but it would be cool.

Here. They're releasing KOTS and the Quick Start Rules and calling it a "test drive". Nifty. No big poster map, of course, but I peeked inside and the first and final encounters are in. Looks like it's complete. Ninja edit: I can't believe I'm not scooped. Or am I?

Technically, being swallowed deals 10 normal damage + 10 fire, so fire resistance doesn't help entirely. You'd think fire giants and fire archons would be interested in taming Remohazes. I guess they only want to use MM2 monsters in the encounter groups.

Such as any tiefling character - a level 20 tiefling has 15 fire res without boosting it with feats or PP:s (can't be bothered to look up any). Not that i mind that specific example - racial abilities should matter. Edit: More Firesoul Genasi get resist 10 fire at level 11 (and resist 15 fire...

You jest, but spices are way underused in treasure troves. :)

"Your clothes... give them to me, now."

Yoinked for great justice. Throw me a line if you mind, but I wanted it in a place I'd remember to check again some time. :blush: Stuff like this gets you XP, yes it does.

Ankhegs, no question. Though ants are certainly cool too. Didn't anyone like the pictures, though? Golem - the clay golem looks pretty half-baked. Hydra - is that a cryohydra at the bottom?

Why do everyone assume the PHB3 will have three sources? PHB1 had to because the four classic classes (Fighting Man, Thief, Magic User and Cleric) are Martial, Arcane and Divine, and the PHB2 had to finish up Divine and Arcane while doing Primal. I think PHBs will have two sources from now on...

That's one huecuva bad joke. Absolutely terrible.
