[QUOTE="Casimir Liber, post: 8827338, member: 6947639"] I prefer second for simplicity, but I think first is more 'realistic' (having a hybrid not swiping with its claws seems weird to me) so will go with that Comes out as CR 6 with those stats for me on [URL]https://5e.tools/crcalculator.html#0,13,14,3,false,Medium,15,18,false,imm,false,0[/URL], Also ditched action and bonus action (feels a bit vanilla without something but on reading them again..meh), which leaves mechanics for Infectious Bite and Description ------------------------------- "Ghuuna (the form is singular and plural) are the result of a special quasi-lycanthropy that affects only gnolls, causing them to shapechange into a giant hyena form. Ghuuna are affected by stress and phases of the moon like other lycanthropes. In their normal (unchanged) form, ghuuna appear to be large gnolls. In this form they shun armor and usually carry greatswords as weapons. Their affinity for hyenas means they will commonly (80%) be found with 2d4 hyenas or 1d4 giant hyenas. They rarely intentionally spread "ghuunism" among gnolls, preferring to be "the few and the proud." (Created by Tomas Willis, the ghuuna first appeared in the September 1984 article "Creature Catalog: A menagerie of new monsters for you" in Dragon #89)" [/QUOTE]
