Although it's not officially an epic creature, it already has epic-level abilities, so DR should be formidable. Astral dragons have DR n/holy or unholy (coz they're neutral), and I'll check on the astral dreadnought. Maybe DR 20/silver? I think psionic charge should be (Ps), with at least 17...

I'm slightly on the side of no Hide bonus, since the yellow is described as a rare chromatic dragon (let's ignore the other yellow dragon for the time being), and as freyar pointed out, none of the other chromatics has a similar bonus.

Ditto. That blast of sand must feel like embers on your skin. And it's different from the sand dragon's similar breath weapon.

The three face horns of the pentaceratops should really count as one attack (1d6) since the dino can't aim them separately and they are spaced closely anyway. I doubt it will bite (I don't know of horned belligerent herbivore biting to attack or defend). The two 1d10's could be the cheek horns...

I'll plug the stats into my MS Excel dragon spreadsheet to generate the missing 3.5 stats (BAB/Grapple, Initiative which is obviously +0, and touch and flat-footed AC). All DR become n/magic. Edit: Basically the stats are the same as those of the green dragon, so all we have to do is supply the...

Out of curiosity, Dragonhelm, where would you use them? Not Dragonlance, I daresay. I wish us die-hard gem dragon fans who do extensive in-house gem dragon stuff can somehow be involved in such a book. ;)

The SLA's and treasure type work fine for me, as well as those two skills.

On that disintegrate effect… there's a psionic disintegrate power which is equivalent to the arcane spell, although both are rays. We can adapt Energy Emanation from Complete Psionic; the description is "Deal 1D6 points of chosen energy damage to surrounding creatures." Or we can use the stats...

Can I just interrupt this for some breaking news? Because a real prehistoric dire toad has been discovered. Since it's named Beelzebufo, I'm half-temped to call it a fiendish dire toad. Google "frog from hell" and it'll pop-up on Google News. Here's a teaser article though. "Frog from Hell"...

Inertial armor's a perfect choice; plus it's a psychokinetic power. Based on their personality they don't seem to like the various psychokinetic energy powers that are destructive. However, the three aforementioned powers (telekinetic force, telekinetic maneuver, telekinetic thrust) which...

Silver/topaz dragon speed: 40 ft. throughout, 100 ft. (average) to 200 ft. (clumsy) for fly. Most other dragons have the same speeds as well. The Jump 2 should translate to a Jump class skill. Abilites: Exceptional Int (15-16) is the same as the 2e bronze, silver, and red dragons. In 3e they...

Would it be feasible to adapt the tauric template to the triton and hippocampus (Stormwrack, not Arms and Equipment Guide) to come up with sea centaur? It gets the Str, Dex and Con of the hippocampus and the Int, Wis and Cha of the triton.

I rely on the World of Sulerin's Monstrous Master Index for a comprehensive cross-edition list of creatures. I did a search for "dragon" in the type field, and the results can be sorted by name or source; very handy.

I was thinking magical beast (extraplanar) too. This would make a perfect opponent to the astral dreadnought (ah, the classic cover of the original Manual of the Planes…) And since you mentioned the elsewhale, it's vaguely similar to it thematically, a plane-travelling cetacean. Other whales...

Since I help out with BOZ and Shade in a few of the monster conversions at the Creature Catalog's General Monster Talk forum, a quick glance there shows several 1,000+ post threads, none of them sticky. Does this apply to threads that already hit the threshold or just to those nearing it?

Quick question: Is this the Myth Drannor electrum dragon? On to the basics… HD and size: Less than a white but bigger than a green? So it starts out Small and ends Gargantuan. Atypical HD/size correspondence, somewhat like the steel/Greyhawk dragon. Spellcasting: Since both gold and silver...

Yeah, me too. He's helped us with the true dragons. Last time I was out for an extended period of time I was on our exploration ship on a 3-week scientific expedition, so maybe he's doing something similar.

Anyone done or doing the dragonets of Dragon #272 (crow's nest, geyser, mole, amd pavilion)? There's a conversion thread for true dragons, but what about lesser dragons? I heard the spiretop dragon of Eberron (Sharn, City of Towers) is nicknamed the crow's nest dragon but it might not be the...

Gruaghlothor is sweet! :cool: And too bad the online Dragon won't do old submissions (like mine) Now, according to some discussions, there were supposed to be 12 (count 'em, 12!) ferrous dragon species originally. Which, by coincidence, is also the total number of species each I have for the...

ARRGGGHHH!!! The aswang is the number one monster used to scare us kids. We had a maid way back when I was young who used to terrorize me by claiming that the dark backyard behind my grand-aunt's house next to ours is haunted by the aswang at night. It didn't help that there was a star-apple...
