[QUOTE="Derulbaskul, post: 5034080, member: 1581"] Hi the Jester, I'm thinking about converting the deepspawn. I have no real need for it right now but maybe I will attempt it shortly just to see how it turns out. I wondering: - why did you choose 27th level? - do you see it as a controller or lurker or something else? - what do you plan to do about its spawn ability? Thanks in advance. I really appreciate your threads. Edit: I've had a crack at it but at 15th level (CR 10 in 3.5E plus 50%). I've gone with brute because that's what it feels like.
