[QUOTE="Cleon, post: 9141208, member: 57383"] Hold on a sec, the Enworld versions of the [b][url='https://www.enworld.org/posts/8914994']Amiraspian Cyclops Chief[/url][/b] and [b][url='https://www.enworld.org/posts/8890557']Amiraspian Cyclops Young[/url][/b] are both [i]monstrosities[/i] while the D&D Beyond versions are [i]feys[/i]. I vaguel recall us deciding on Fey as the type and that matches Enworld's standard [b][url='https://www.enworld.org/posts/8890557']Amiraspian Cyclops[/url][/b]. Must have forgotten to change the other two! Never mind, I'll just switch them both to [i]fey[/i] so they match the D&D Beyond versions. Let's see, apart from that… The [B][URL='https://www.enworld.org/posts/8915000']Amiraspian Cyclops Young[/URL][/B] has [b]Armor Class[/b] [COLOR=magenta]12[/COLOR]. The [i][b]Poor Depth Perception[/b][/i] should be "more than [COLOR=magenta]5 feet[/COLOR] away." The [i][b]Claw[/b][/i] and [i][b]Rock[/b][/i] damage are missing a space between the average damage and parenthesis. That is, it should be "[COLOR=magenta]4 (1d4[/COLOR] + 2)". Young Cyclopes do not have any [b]Bonus Actions[/b] so the [i][b]Aggressive[/b][/i] and [i][b]Hypnotic Glare[/b][/i] should be cut out. Hmm… how about giving the Young Cyclops [i][b]Aggressive[/b][/i] and modify the [b]Description[/b] to mention that they only develop [i][b]Hypnotic Glare[/b][/i] as adults? Like so: [indent][SIZE=6]Bonus Actions[/SIZE] [COLOR=magenta][I][B]Aggressive.[/B][/I] As a bonus action, the cyclops can move up to its speed towards a hostile creature that it can see.[/COLOR] [B][SIZE=6]Description[/SIZE][/B] [*]SNIP[*] [COLOR=magenta] Young cyclopes are aggressively vicious and capable combatants but lack the [I]Hypnotic Glare[/i] of a fully grown cyclops; an Amiraspian cyclops only gains this monocular power when it matures into adulthood.[/COLOR][/INDENT] Finally, the [COLOR=magenta][i]White Dwarf Magazine #21[/i][/COLOR] in the Credit should be [i]italicized[/i].
