    Unconverted D&D creatures

    I'm not sure on the first two (I'd have to look them up) but I looked at the Wild Mul the other day and think that it should be done as a Prestige Class or a Racial Paragon Class. From the names, I suspect the first two would also work out as PrCs or Racial Paragon Classes.

    Unconverted D&D creatures

    I don't really want to hold up any Spelljammer conversions, but as there are only 8 of these, do you think it is worth having a Converting Dark Sun monsters thread? Or is Athas.org still activly converting these 8 monsters as part of their 3rd edition project?

    Converting monsters from Imagine Magazine

    Nice work with the weremouse. :cool: I like what you have done with the china dolls. I'd go with this. Death Throes is too similar to the draconian from Dragonlance, but Explosive Destruction could be based on these constructs being pressurised (or something like that). I like demiurge's...

    Special Conversion Thread: Finishing off the oozes

    I think the burining zombie creation process is similar to the aruchai creation process (from the last monster), althought it is more of a sub-creature creation process than a child creation process. It reminds me of the Witchlight Marauder (from Spelljammer) which has three forms. This also...

    Converting Creatures from Other Campaign Settings

    How about starting with the 3HD beastie and adding extra HD, skills and feats (to generate the other versions) after the monster is finished?

    Pocket reference: Oozes

    How about a "Bag of Holding Reference"? :p

    Special Conversion Thread: Finishing off giants and their kin

    The level sounds right, although I would have gone for a barbarian leader or a Zeboim worshiping ranger leader with humans as a racial enemy. Didn't we have another monster recently, that did this? We know that infants and juveniles fight alongside adults if PCs enter a village, so I think...

    Special Conversion Thread: Finishing off giants and their kin

    I didn't see the last page of posts when I posted that. :blush: I'll be looking that up, when I play one of these as a PC. :D That looks good, but should probably include "a raiding party of X giants" in there somewhere. (I initially thought these would all be adults, but maybe a juvenile...

    Special Conversion Thread: Finishing off giants and their kin

    I think nauseated is best too. As for the damage, don't forget that this is a freebie weapon that the giant can never drop. Its a gastric dagger. It looks pretty good (apart from the transposistion error in the word "become" :p ). Do you think that we should create a feat for Bosk Giants that...

    Pocket reference: Oozes

    You seem to have "Bestiary of the Realms, Volume 2" twice. Is there two entries for the monster or is this a typo? I do love these Pocket references. They are most useful. I'm looking forward to eventually seeing a complete set.

    Converting Creatures from Other Campaign Settings

    I think the other conversions are a tiny bit limiting for a monster that originally had 3-8 HD in 2nd edition. I think the "1 attack per HD" thing is probably one of the most distinctive abilities of this plant. Can't we treat this a bit like a hydra and do 6 sets of stats (3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8...

    Converting World of Greyhawk monsters

    Fun is good! I think it needs the Fire Subtype. I also think it needs the hide skill (so that it has the ability to hide in fire) or maybe the ability to become invisible within fire.

    Converting World of Greyhawk monsters

    Nice. A creature that lives in a fire, definately sounds like a fire elemental of some sort. It looks like it has some sort of slam attack (or a firey headbut :p). One thing that interests me is this sentence: "If the party does not answer, the circling creatures and the fiery face attack."...

    Missing In Action

    That is good news. (A lot better news that a generation back. They have really advanced in this sort of area. I think the main issue is temperature control.) I hope is isn't too long before your baby is out of the incubator and able to be held. Lets hope the only thing keeping you busy is...

    Creature Catalogue Wiki?

    Thanks Mrs Wiki! I'd obviously want to be reading and following any guidelines before I started anything big on ENWiki.

    Creature Catalogue Wiki?

    At the moment everything in ENWiki seems to be in a single namespace. I think (that if the head honchos say yes) we would want a Creature Catalogue namespace. I believe this just means adding something like a Creature Catalogue page and then making sub pages for all of the monsters. We would...

    Missing In Action

    I'm sorry to hear this Shade. This is obviously far more important than monster conversions. Look after Mrs Shade. I hope her and your future Shadelet are both well soon.

    Creature Catalogue Wiki?

    I don't know if you have ever used the website called The Hypertext d20 SRD, but for those who have not used it the basic advantage of this is that words within monster entries are hyperlinked to the relevant parts of the core rules. Here is a quick example: the drow section of the elf page...

    Converting World of Greyhawk monsters

    Bump! (Or should I say Buuump! :p ) I think you forgot to add this in all the rush. Apart from this issue, I think these guys are done. Please summon the next Oerthling? ;)

    Converting original D&D and Mystara monsters

    I wish I'd noticed that earlier. :lol: Now I'm wanting to see a D&D monster that does have a vulnerability to cod. :p Great work guys. And not too many red herrings (arf-arf). What is next?
