Well we've got to figure out the Special Qualities and decide on the Challenge Rating. For the former, I think we're OK cribbing from the Weredrake: Hmm, apart from changing "Weredrake" to "Weredragon" di we need to add Spell Resistance to the above? That's a Special Quality listed in the SRD...

Have corrected/updated the Greater Fachan Working Draft. Also struck the question mark from the "Temperate hills and mountains" Environment. Is 2d4 rock damage OK for you? Presumably it's another copy/pasted error. From what I remember, the Stone Maiden was converted on the CC's Al-Qadim...

I'm fine with continuing to use the original statblock layout and not bothering redoing the monsters we've already converted. The numbers will remain the same, after all.

That's already in the Brainswapped Modronoid (Template) Working Draft. Return of the Modrons only has stats for the Base Modrons. As I said above, we don't have official 3.5 stats for a Decaton. Shall we just stat it up ourselves using the official Modron stats as a guide?

Nope. There was talk of doing a Noble rank Dao quite a time ago. Considering how slow progress on the Firelord's been (and everything else on this forum), it'd likely be a while before anything happens with that one.

Yeah, I can go along with that. Updating Bielgorad Working Draft. I'll tweak the first paragraph of the Crook to say it's an exotic melee weapon to specify non-bielgorads skilled in halberd but not crook get a –4 penalty on attack rolls for not being proficient in the weapon.

Hiya Oryan! It's been a while since you've visited this neck of the woods. Freyar's been busy so the 3.5 collaborative stuff has been going at a snail's pace, but you're welcome to join in whenever it suits you. Or if you want to be a little more up-to-date there's always the Fifth Edition...

Hmm… well off the top of my head the highest trample damage critter I can think of in standard AD&D sources is the Brachiosaurus*, which: Monster Manual (1977) "Similar to apatosaurs, they might step on something small, causing 8-80 points of damage." Monstrous Compendium Volume Three-...

Was wondering about maybe increasing the Carnivorous version's swarm damage to 3d6 and making it CR 4. Also wondered about tweaking the Carnivorous version's abilities to Dex 12, which'd make it: Armor Class: 13 (+2 size, +1 Dex), touch 13, flat-footed 12 Attack (Swarm): Swarm (3d6) [?] Attack...

Okay, just finished a first draft for the Beetle Swarm Working Draft and Carnivorous Beetle Swarm Working Draft.

I see little point in going full rank for the Knowledge skills, so here's a counterproposal. Full Ranks: Bluff, Concentration, Diplomacy, Gather Information, Listen, Sense Motive, Spellcraft, Spot, Tumble, Use Magic Device Half Ranks: Appraise, Climb, Hide, Jump, Knowledge (arcane), Knowledge...

Boy things have been progressing slowly, but we've finished enough conversions to do an Update of the Creature Catalog (Download Version):

Cleon updated Creature Catalog with a new update entry: Creature Catalog (Download Version) Update 2025-07-03 Read the rest of this update entry...

Added Bleak One (Hazard), Caprine, Gladiator Lizard, Ihagnim, Modronoid, Seven Swords' Keeper of the Key, Skeleton Archer and Slaiyith (including Master Slaiyith & Psionic Slaiyith). Amended the Nasnas and Valgoss Host (Template).

Just realized an inconsistency with The Keeper of the Key Working Draft. In the body text I mostly called it The Keeper of the Keys plural rather than the singular Key as the undead's named in OA2. Just edited it so all the Keys are Key.

By that argument wouldn't every conversion of a Maelost creature we do have the Extraplanar subtype? Most of them never leave their home plane anyway, Also, although the demiplane of Maelost is floating around the Ethereal Plane in its own spatial bubble, Tales from The Infinite Staircase says...

Remembered there was something I wanted to add to the Damage section. I think the hybrid form's tail slap should not use 1½ Strength bonus like a true dragon's tail slap but just ½ Strength bonus like a regular secondary attack. It's a simple matter of adding "The hybrid form's tail slap deals...

Updating the Weredragon (True Drakanthrope) Working Draft. How's this: Crush (Ex): If a weredragon's dragon type possesses the crush attack, the weredragon can make crush attacks when in a dragon form or hybrid form that meets the special attack's size restrictions. This special attack...

Just remembered there were some issues with the Nasnas conversion: Can you spot any problems? :confused:

Updated the Greater Fachan Working Draft with all of the above, including lowering Strength to 19.
