I think the Fallen Angel template was on the old board... - Devon

Still working on the devils. Here's a new template for now. Let me know if you think the CR is off, or if it should be scaled according to HD. - Devon Template, Arcspinner Arcspinners are those few who, for some reason or another, have been tested by lightning and passed. They have been...

Generally it's chosen by the author. There are some general guidelines that have been invented in various Monster Creation systems (Skip Williams', for example), but use your own judgement, especially with large critters like this. Remember in the CR calculator that an AC over 20 adds +2 to...

I recently purchased a copy of this guidebook, and I like it very much. There are some things I had wanted to see, features which I may have to add myself if they're not already planned for a web enhancement: - Adding more intelligence to constructs: at the moment, only simulacra have the...

Looks pretty nasty. Definitely something to fear. I think it could have a better Dex--is it based on any of the existing Celestials from the MM? I remember that somewhere I saw a template for a Fallen Celestial--now where was that? - Devon

I finally got Encyclopedia Arcane: Constructs I received a copy of "Constructs" yesterday, and it's been quite a nice sourcebook. There is an option for Extra Limbs which includes wings, although anything other than a Simulacrum (ex: homunculus) with flight gets Poor maneuverability, so I am...

That one sounds better. Hades is a good choices... I was shying away from Carceri, and I need to read up on Gehenna. By all means post your new fiend. I'd love to see it. - Devon

a new fiend, or a new devil? I was planning to create another Baatezu... something in the traditional line of tempting mortals to sin, as I had been discussing in "Where have all the devils gone?" I think we agreed may greed or gluttony would be good sins to accentuate, so I was going to bend...

I changed Regeneration to Fast Healing, so that should work more neatly now. - Devon

Okay, this is the last silly creature I write up until I've created a new Devil type. Let me know what you think. - Devon Blue Trundler Large Aberration Hit Dice: 7d8+14 (45 hp) Initiative: +2 (Dex) Speed: 50 ft. AC: 17 (+6 natural, +2 Dex, -1 size) Attacks: 4 punches +10 melee, 2 bites +5...

Aside from not mentioning the specifics of the area of effet, and minor semantic differences, I think it's just as good a conversion as our attempts. I was somewhat worried about doing the scaled saving throw modifiers in 3e, but that was an aesthetic choice more than anything. If we want to...

Nasty. I can see this being confused with a Marilith, freaking out the party. Or underestimated as a Slithermorph, for those Undermountain veterans. What does it mean when it has the (Spirit) subtype? Is it really a Naga if it has arms, though? :p - Devon

I do recall that... perhaps instead of house ruling it so that it works like original regeneration, I should change it to Fast Healing. I'm glad it meets the evil quota... I was thinkgin I was somewhat behind on inventing complete bastards. - Devon

Hi, folks, Another undead critter. Please let me know if you have any feedback. I value your input--it makes me enjoy creating new things. - Devon Krotogeist medium-sized undead (incorporeal) Hit Dice: 10d12 (65) Initiative: +7 (+3 Dex, +4 Improved Initiative) Speed: Speed: 30 ft., fly 60...

Here's a template loosely inspired by the Ghost Pirate LeChuck of "The Secret of Monkey Island" fame. I'm working on an actual Ghost Pirate template (incoporeal, possession, etc.), but the Deck Zombie was more inspiring at the moment, and Ghost Pirate may be too powerful as it was presented in...

the Smoke Genie lost out How come the Smoke Genie can't grant wishes? - Devon

I'm not afraid! I'm not! I could create a creature if I felt like it... I just... (sniff) don't wanna. :o Actually, I've never used genies or their kin in a game, and so it's difficult to find the inspiration to create new ones. (Maybe I should oversome this in my game and start using them)...

Forget spell too powerful for 2nd level? Well, the 4th-level Modify Memory has no hints whatsoever about how to reverse it (which is fine, I suppose, for a higher-level spell). But for the original Forget spell. there are ways to remove it (restorations, wishes). If it's still too powerful...

there IS a Forget spell I can't believe I missed it! There is a 4th level Bard spell called Modify Memory which sounds perfect as a conversion for the Forget spell. The SRD version doesn't mention how to restore the memory, but it should work. If we still want to make it similar to the 2e...

Between the Monstrous COmpendium, Monsters of Faerun, and the Manual of the Planes, WotC has converted almost all of the original AD&D devil subtypes. Then, in the CC, we have pretty much all of the Dukes and Arch-devils--individual fiends with established places in the hierarchy of Baator. I...
