    Converting Al-Qadim creatures

    For the Warriors and Nobles, what about Improved Initiative? Or perhaps Combat Reflexes to give them the advantage of more Attacks of Opportunity? Or simply give them Weapon Focus and increase their chances of successful attacks? Maybe the Calipha has Iron Will to help prevent those pesky...

    Maybe, since they burrow and create expansive tunnels, Undercommon... though they probably don't go *that* far.

    Converting Al-Qadim creatures

    I favor this idea! Perhaps DC 10 with the standard number of pasari-niml (two for Small, four for Medium-sized, 16 for Large) with a +2 circumstance bonus for each additional pasari-niml.

    That Pitfall ability game me some trouble... but I like the looks of Cleon's Pull Down. (Oooh-er... that sounds a bit rude.)

    Converting Al-Qadim creatures

    However, the willingness to become a lich is not a sacrifice for service, more suicide for the gaining of massive power. The Crypt Servant volunteers seem more like the Egyptian slaves who willingly die and get buried with their king to serve in eternity. Regardless, your point about repeating...

    The one thing that makes me think Deathless is the fact that targets may willingly jump in the saddle. That might be a social issue and not related to the end result in any way. Is that worth looking at?

    Anything else for the Opinicuses? (Opinici?)

    Let's go with: A greater lammasu is about 10 feet long, stands 5 foot at the shoulder, and weighs about 1400 pounds.

    I suspect it makes more sense to adjust the Advancement entry for the standard Opinicus than it does to bump up the Greater Opinicus. However, why not just bump up the Greater Opinicus? Bigger is better. ;)

    What about either Enthrall, Shatter, or Silence for second level?

    Yeah. Should it be bigger and/or a little stronger? Whether it is a size larger or has a higher Strength, what if the Greater Opinicus should have 1d6 for its natural attacks?

    What about making the Greater Opinicus 11 or 13 Hit Dice?

    Don't a number of desert creatures also speak Terran? If so, should we add that to languages for the Opinicus?

    Let's do that voodoo that Cleon do... make claw damage 1d4. Do we want to consider any racial feats? Like Ability Focus on Sun Sparkles.

    Converting Al-Qadim creatures

    What about swapping Power Attack for Improved Natural Attack? The Opinicus gets a +8 to hit, but I would think they wouldn't want to sacrifice many of those points for extra damage. Then again, Improved Natural Attack would only bump it up to 1d4 for the claw attacks.

    Make it so, sir.

    I'm more in favor of Iron Will than Divine Might... Cleon's point about Will saves is well taken.

    Not as I understand it. A number of races start off with a token psionic point or more, but they are not required to take a psionic class. They may then take the psionic feats that require psionic focus. For example, a Dromite has the following Racial Ability... With that ability, a Dromite...

    Then let's give the opinicus 2 psionic power points.

    What about Psionic Fist? Too combative? Up the Walls, Sidestep Charge, or Psionic Dodge?
