Updating the Efreeti Firelord Working Draft. Okay, I'm thinking 80 feet for the Flash Step movement, same as the Firelord's flight speed. All the monsters with true seeing in the Monster Manual have truesight 120 ft. and that's also the range the true seeing spell provides, so I think it makes...

Will green the remaining purple Actions and remove the question mark in the next update. Works for me. We'll need a distance for the stepping and a couple of ranges and a damage for the eyes. Leaving it out is simpler! :p

Hmm, if we were following the precedent of the Maelost worm smarms, then the weak one would be a "Beetle Swarm, Carnivorous" while the strong one would be "Beetle Swarm, Deadly" instead of an ordinary carnivorous beetle swarm. What thinks thee?

Works for me. Will post a couple of blank Working Drafts and then we can start arguing debating the details.

As written that'd allow the Krakentua to wield seven Colossal two-handed weapons in its tentacles with only a –8 attack penalty. Considering its BAB and Strength bonus give it plenty of attack modifier that doesn't seem wise. How about this: Weapon Wielding Tentacles (Ex): A krakentua can...

Yup. Well there's four dragons with Blink, so if the SAs stacked it'd be 24/day! :devil: Well, if forced to hazard a guess, I'd suggest "so it stands out more and the GM is less likely to forget the blinking ability."

I have no objection to sparing myself the work!

Rock-a-bye-thready on the interweb tree.

So that's what the issue is. That "base dragon" was intended to refer to the dragon type of the base dragon. How about changing it to "if the dragon type of the base dragon has those attacks at any age category."

They're a fairly well known folklore monster. We've also converted a similar "half a man" monster from Arabian Myth, the Nasnas. Yeah, I agree on both. This version is some sort of weird mutant ogre and is considered giant-kin. The original entries say their anatomy is bizarre enough it...

Sure. I'm liking the overcome-fire-resistance ability to be reserved for Legendary Actions. Oh, and just to confirm, we're using Tornado of Flames version 3 right (this one). Y'okay. Okay, my current rough ideas are: Bonus Actions Extra Attack. with attack options from Multiattack? Flash...

Brainswapped Modronoid (Template) Description. Background. Creating a Brainswapped Modronoid "Brainswapped Modronoid" is an acquired template that can be added to any animal, beast, giant, humanoid creature, magical beast, or monstrous humanoid [with a base Will save of at least +#?] (referred...

Let's go for Brainswapped Modronoid then.

What he said. Which reminds me, I really should get around to doing that update sometime but keep on getting distracted by things. 🐿️ Squirrel!

Yeah, might as start on the Attack Line so doing the Crook next works for me. Speaking of which. are they having slam attacks for the original's fists or will we unarmed strike it?

I was thinking a tentacle could wield a two-handed weapon up to Medium size, a one-handed weapon up to Large size, or a light weapon up to Huge size. Then their tentacle weapon options would typically max out at around 2d6 damage (Medium greatsword, Large longsword, Huge shortsword). We'd need...

Come to think of it, if we do them as two separate swarms we can give the weaker one some kind of vulnerability to smoke and fire like the original monster had.

We could do them as two swarms, a weaker "beetle swarm" based on the Random Encounter Table's 15 hit point version and a stronger "carnivorous beetle swarm" based on Encounter 42's 40 hit point version. Similar to the approach we took for the Tales of the Infinite Staircase's worm swarms, which...
