[QUOTE="the Jester, post: 4359841, member: 1210"] Hmm, the earth weird is a good one- but I'm trying to take a policy of "get a cursory set of stats for a large number of monsters, then fill in details later"... and elemental weirds are one of those monsters that I've done a couple of stat blocks for and filed away under "more later". :) The chitine is a good'un, though I've borne some criticism for having too many spidery monsters. (Hey, they're hideous goddamn monsters, it's only natural that I'd use them as such! But them, I'm a trifle arachniphobic...) Still, I'll muse on that one. I'll have to try to find my copy of MCA1 to check out the rest of these to see if I'll do them... I remember 3.x stats for the chitine, but that's it. Yeah, I'm amazed that nobody has proposed it before... No, too Forgotten Realms for my taste. I have plenty of lizard dudes, between, well, lizardfolk, dragonkin, dragonborn, trogs, firenewts, etc. I don't really "get" what makes saurials different from the rest, or what makes them special. I have to pass on that one, sorry. :) I'll have to dig out my MCA4, too- I remember the name, and I remember liking it, but I can't remember what it is. Don't have the Mystara MCA. :( I had it on loan for years, but returned it about a year ago. Rakasta, to me, are redundant with tabaxi. (Same thing with catfolk- I'll stick to tabaxi, thankyouverymuch, they're a long tradition in my campaign.) This is strictly a matter of personal taste, but imho you can take the tabaxi stats I did and just change the name and you're fine. (I could be wrong- there might be some rakasta/catfolk abilities that I'm unaware of- but even so, that would be easy enough to plug in imho.) Tortles- ahhh, even sans source material, these guys go on the list! [/QUOTE]
