Updating the Scarlet Death Working Draft. After reviewing the 3E version in Monster Manual II, it doesn't have any languages listed and there's no mention of a voice in its description so we could make the Undead version speechless with Languages —. Or, if we want to jazz it up a bit...

So: A figure dressed in white clerical robes with a turban-like headdress wrapped around its head and neck. The open front of its headgear shows no face, but just an empty black void. The being clutches a set of dagger-shaped crystal chimes in hands with skin whiter than bleached bone. It...

Likewise! Agreed. While spell turning is a good pick I'm not fond of fire storm. How about forcecage instead?

Okay, so we're agreed on the ability scores at least. The above Working Draft doesn't look much different from how I remembered it, however many months ago that was. If it's an Undead, I think it needs necrotic and charmed immunity. Oh, and Death Mists can speak in AD&D so there should be...

Are we okay keeping all the Abilities/Actions/Bonuses/Reactions/Legendaries in the Efreeti Noble Rough Draft or are there powers you'd like to remove or add? EDIT: Upon reflection, how about allowing the Firelord's Multiattack to include Flaming Punch and Immolating Touch as well as the...

Have updated the Mystaran Dragonflies collected post.

Come to think of it, do these things have "Senses: blindsight 10 ft., darkvision 60 ft." like a Wyrmling true dragon?

Right-ho. So are we giving it Dashing Flight still? What about the CON save proficiency and Perception proficiency question above?

Dang it, I forgot the Sorcerer skills. That's why it had 231 total SPs in the Slaiyith Working Draft instead of 189. Sorcerer has proficiency in Bluff, Concentration, Craft, Knowledge (arcana), Profession, and Spellcraft. I think we should max out Concentration and Spellcraft, so that's 6 SPs...

There's a bit of a contradiction in the Lankhmar - City of Adventure (1993) version that says "They seem never to need food or other nourishment" while having "DIET: Carnivore" in the stats. We'll have to pick one or the other, but I'm leaning towards them not needing to eat. How's this...

That seems overly elaborate. Wouldn't it be easier changing the last sentence to "if the dragon form has those attacks" or "provided it has those attacks in dragon form"? Like so: A weredragon in hybrid form gains two claw attacks and a bite attack as natural weapons. A Large or larger hybrid...

That feels a bit too thick and heavy for me. The illustration in Dragon #89 shows an ooze-like creature that's quite "flat" and wide. Assuming the human wizard in the picture is 6 foot tall, I'd guesstimate the illustrated Ihagnim is about 14 feet in diameter with pseudopods that are 6 inches...

Giving them both the Construct and Planar Monster Type is a bit bizarre and I can't offhand think of any official BECMI monster that has such. It also has a logical clash with their description: Bielgorad die rather than submit to mind-control but in BECMI, like 3E, creatures of the Construct...

Let's use 4d8 then. Updating the Male Krakentua Working Draft and Female Krakentua Working Draft.

How much do we want to use from the Great Modron March? That specifies who the Modronoids' creator was (Valran Stonefist), what group ended up backing him (the Tacharim) and how he ended up (as a Decaton Modronoid). We could put that in the Background and add a sentence or two that "demented...

Will include the fixes in the next update. Well there's no description in the original so shall we just make something up? Hmm… how about we base it on a stereotypical Sohei: We can make the robes all white (the colour worn at funerals), have nothing but have emptiness or a black void...

Updating Opal the Sun Dragon Working Draft. Hang about, eighth level? You've skipped the seventh level spells. Either of those two are worthy spells, but I don't think they're worth a Sorcerer slot. It's unlikely Opal will need to use them multiple times. We can always swap an 8th-level...

Works for me. Not the most exciting of collections but it's easy to adjudicate. That leaves Skills. It needs 189 Skill Points worth, or seven maxed-out Skills. The base Slaiyith has 114 SPs, which it divided between six maxed-out skills: Concentration, two Knowledges, Listen, Spot and...

That means the Bleak One is done, but we still need a Background section for the Gladiator Lizard.

A True Dragons' natural attacks depend on their size category not their LA, so I'm unclear why you think the current wording doesn't allow a weredragon in Large dragon form to use wings and tail slap attacks. Would rewording it to be more explicit help? Come to think of it, the Damage should...
