    Converting original D&D and Mystara monsters

    <Emerging from the deepest of shadows> It's been awhile since I've contributed anything to this discussion - it may even have been the suggestion that these goatfolk be converted! Given the ovinaurs' battlefield tactics, how about giving them Spring Attack as a bonus feat? Mortis

    Special Conversion Thread: Lycanthropes and their ilk

    It gives another meaning to the phrase 'hollow stomach'. :D It also reminded me of a conversion I did ages ago (or so it seems) - weresabretooth. Regards Mortis

    Converting original D&D and Mystara monsters

    Their original entry mentions goblins and lupins. Other Savage Coast races include rakasta and the recently converted tortle, and after checking the player's guide to the region: Shazak - nearly identical to the lizardfolk tongue which in 3.5 is draconic. There are 3 goblinoid languages (rather...

    Well that's how the ring of the ram works. ;) Regards Mortis

    Converting prehistoric creatures

    I didn't get them wrong, I just missed the bit where you changed them to magical beasts - which, of course, they should be given their Intelligence. :blush: I'd like Con 20 - but that would make the stats a bit 'wonky', I'd rather not give a 4HD creature 2 bonus feats (assuming it keeps...

    Converting prehistoric creatures

    The extra HD takes the hp up to 32 which is about what the original had. Or do you fancy bumping Con up a point (to 20) which will take the hp to 36? Yeah, why not. Regards Mortis

    Eric "Shade" Jansing (1971-2012)

    I'm sorry to hear this. I'd like to give my condolences to his family and friends. Like a lot of others, I only knew Shade via these forums but he came across as a great guy. I first came here in 2004 looking for 3E conversions of Mystaran and Known World creatures but have stayed (with gaps)...

    Sounds good to me. I don't think, but there is one on the Vaults of Pandius, here. Regards Mortis

    Converting original D&D and Mystara monsters

    I've no problem with that either. Shame that none of the articles cover the Immortal(s) that the snappers worship. That would give me a better idea. Regards Mortis

    Should these be added to the Mystara to do list?

    For those of you who don't know, Bruce Heard (one of the Known World/Mystara developers and the author of the Voyage of the Princess Ark articles in Dragon) has recently returned to the online community. One of his contributions is the article Goatmen of Kavaja which includes two new creatures...

    I'm in favour of dropping it. <edit>Also on reflection I'm not sure that they warrant a +3 Level Adjustment. Regards Mortis

    Converting prehistoric creatures

    Skills look done according to the working draft. Shade suggested Weapon Focus (bite) and Great Fortitude earlier which seem fine to me. Regards Mortis

    Perhaps the snappers' nesting grounds are around/near tortle religious sites. Regards Mortis

    Figured as much. I don't mind 'Tenacious March' either. Regards Mortis

    Converting prehistoric creatures

    Noticed a couple of (very) small issues in the working draft. Speed has (4 square) rather than (4 squares) and the second paragraph of Indefatigable March still uses the term 'Tireless March'. That said, and it doesn't actually affect anything important, I prefer 'Relentless March' over...

    Converting prehistoric creatures

    In my opinion that is only a Su ability as the genies can affect others (the herd) with it. As an ability that only affects the creature that possesses it changing it to Ex makes sense to me. Regards Mortis
