it's already on my list - feel free to pick again. :)

yeah, but these guys are different from pixies. it sounds like they are only invisible when they want to be, rather than the either way around, using it to hide or escape.

heh! good point. Invisibility (Su): A booka can become invisible, and can resume or end its invisibility as a swift action. does that sound appropriate? what LA sounds good? is the DR and SR good enough for a +1? weight? it's 1 foot tall, but can be 10-14 inches (sometimes even taller)

i'm switching Diplomacy to Handle Animal. they really aren't friendly creatures, in the sense of talking and saying Hi, since they spend all their time hiding from the people they help, and intimidating those they don't like by using traps and tricks. :) also, i really like the idea of them...

OK, wrapping up a few points about the booka... Skills: Animal Empathy +4, Craft (any two) +5, Escape Artist +7, Hide +8, Jump +6, Listen +7, Move Silently +9, Search +4, Spot +7 it should have 28 skill ranks. not sure what it would have based on the above (switching Animal Empathy to Handle...

also... i was thinking that it should have a melee attack, as basically anything with the means (if not the will) to do so has one. maybe a bite attack that deals 1d3 nonlethal?

hopefully not - as our #10 creature for the overall thread, we'll finally be getting out... first batch of monsters posted for 2006! :o naturally! :) FYI, this is what i had already: Bookas speak Sylvan, and many known Elven and Common, and some even speak the secret language of rogues...

as far as i know, they haven't gotten to the fey queries yet. :)

i'm totally fine with that, in fact it's really what i wanted to do (recall how we handled the plant and fey queries if you get my drift). don't know that i'd want to only submit for "beetle-only" and "spider-only" and such, as i'd want to mix it up, maybe one on intelligent vermin, one on...

IIRC, it was in Ruins of Myth Drannor?

are you sure those are the same creature?

OK, here are some summaries of the creatures we came up with in this thread, as well as a few more. :) It took us some time to put this together, as you might imagine. Now would be the time to weed out the ones we definitely don’t want, to better compare the ones we would rather consider...

This isn’t sounding too bad so far, actually. The silly, flighty, vapid way they normally behave is simply how they are known to most other creatures, since this is how they interact. While they swing from person to person, they whisper their sage-like knowledge almost as a game, which might...

perfect - that's what we'll do. :) finished up 3 more: Clockwork Swordsman Construct, CR 5 The clockwork swordsman is an intelligent mechanical creation which usually serves as a bodyguard for the spellcaster who created it. A swordsman’s programming is much like that of a CG swashbuckler...

could you post the original stats, or send them to me? the problem is, those CRs are more than the HD for each of those (gautiere 4, linqua 2, and base garmorm 5). do they have something going on with them that rates them having CRs as high as you speculate?

could you post or send me the stats for those last two? the mapmaker looks fine as-is. is the mole dragon's description good, and do we need to include CR for it or will it be variable by age category?

if anyone would care to help me out, where i most need help is the creatures from Dragon. i have access to the rest of the sources, and will try to flesh out the remaining monsters tonight and tomorrow. :) help with these would be appreciated (creature type and CR suggestions needed as well):

thanks! :) here's 3 more, all from the same book as well: (do spell crystals appear anywhere in 3E, or do we need to introduce this concept?) Demarax Outsider (lawful), CR 2? This LN lizard-like creature has hundreds of tiny crystals embedded in its dark hide. The demarax roams slowly across...

wrote these two up first, since they were in the same book. let me know what you think! Bionoid Construct?? Monstrous Humanoid??, CR 10? These large NG insectoid humanoids were once elves that have been re-engineered for warfare. A bionoid has an iridescent exoskeleton with hard claw-like...

and, we have a winnar. ;) more to come tomorrow... in the meantime, i'm taking my arse to bed. :)
