    Return of Creature by Poll - The Creature thus Far

    We should probably specify melee weapons in the "morphic" categories. I wouldn't want it to start morphing a crossbow... For balance, we may also want to specify only weapons from the PHB weapons table. Otherwise, every wacked-out munchkin supplement will make this critter more powerful. Also...

    Are these actually *different* models? Or the same model with differnt hair styles and clothing? They seem very uniform... Heck, you see more diversity in body types in a Victoria's Secrets catalogue... ;)

    Return of Creature by Poll - Poll #29 (# of attacks)

    I wouldn't even give it any real "arms". No discernable anatomy of any kind - just a whirling mass of gears and slivers and other metal bits.

    Return of Creature by Poll - Poll #29 (# of attacks)

    I thought we were going with "variable" natural/manufactured weapons? Don't see why it couldn't generate a greatclub if it wants to do Bludeoning damage. Or a warhammer if we stick with one-handed weapons. It'd be fun to allow it to use two "arms" (i.e. two of its natural weapon attacks) for...

    Return of Creature by Poll - Poll #29 (# of attacks)

    3. Because odd numbers are more chaotic! :D BTW, why would it ever bother to do a Slam, if it can attack with any weapon at the same bonuses? We should either do away with the Slam, or give it some extra benefits.

    Return of Creature by Poll - Poll #30 (fast healing)

    Voted 5. Don't know why people keep comparing it with the Marut specifically, but the other two Inevitables (Kolyarut and Zelekhut) only have fast healing 5 (and hp totals that are more in line with the Drenkari: 91 and 74 respectively, vs 112 hp for the Marut). Plus, with the combination of...

    Return of Creature by Poll - Poll #31 (treasure)

    Definitely "various bits of special materials" - including gemstones etc. It wouldn't really be carrying any posessions, so any treasure would be bits formally part of its own body. 1/2 standard sounds about right. Any more than that, and you'd have to give it a crapload of diamonds or start to...

    Return of Creature by Poll - Poll #27 (weaponry)

    If it makes a difference, I prefer #5. That way at least we can simplify things and say "they're natural weapons, but they function exactly as if they're manufactured ones, except they can't be dropped or sundered". Still clumsy, but it's better than half a page of exceptions on how they differ...

    Nice model. Out of proportion for a human, of course, but plausible for an elf.

    d20 NPCs Wiki - Do we need any help?

    Made a few minor corrections to the Awakened Wolf (Darkvision 60' and an extra skill point). Didn't bother even *trying* to make sure the Black Brambles (Paragon Advanced Blightspawned Awakened Assassin Vine) is correct - just way too much of a mess. I doubt the Awakened plant rules were applied...

    OGC Wiki?

    And yet, one could argue that giving away 99% of the content of the core books for free should have ruined the market precisely for those core books - and it hasn't really. Sure, WotC releasing the SRD had a big effect on the size of the market as a whole, and they are raking in a lot of buys...

    OGC Wiki?

    Oh, I think most of us here DO understand the difference, and DO care. With the possible exception of a vocal minority. Overall though, I see a lot of miscommunication on both sides. And a lot of strawman accusations of "what the other side thinks". I think this discussion has been more...

    OGC Wiki?

    Wulf - I'd love it if you could expand on this a little. What is your reasoning behind releasing some of your OGC for free in this manner, and how do you see it different than what people here have been proposing. It seems to me that it *is* possible to release some OGC for free in a way that...

    When Can't it Fly?

    Sounds good. For a more gradual effect, you could count each hp lost as some lbs of encumbrance, in such a way that your full amount of hitpoints equals your light encumbrance. I.e. if you're down to 1/2 hp, you'll need to drop equipment until you're down to 1/2 your light encumbrance. When...

    Return of Creature by Poll - The Creature thus Far

    I'd prefer the second: Str 15, Dex 27, Con —, Int 18, Wis 16, Cha 19

    When Can't it Fly?

    Ah - you're right, I completely misunderstood. In that case, your answer is much shorter: No. ;)

    Return of Creature by Poll - Poll #27 (weaponry)

    Voted #2, although it doesn't reflect my preference all that well. "creates or draws forth from an extradimensional space" sounds like either it could create new weapons from scartch and hand them out to its underlings, or it has a weapon stashed away in a body cavity, and once it loses it it's...

    OGC Wiki?

    No, not really. Walk Like An Egyptian would still be OGC, so Walk Like An Etruscan and A Hundred And One Funky Walks would still be 100% legal. Ralts just withdrew his permission to post Walk Like An Egyptian in the repository, but he has no right to tell other authors what to do with the work...

    Hand of Evil's Poser Art (now in a single thread) updated: 12.28.2005

    Very nice! Looks a little bright outside for the "dark" of the night, though... [Edit: is that a blowup of the moon in the window? I didn't even notice at first, and it's still hard to tell now that I have a hunch that's what it may be. I'd make that moon about 1/2 the current size, to make it...
