Alternate Totems for Dragon Shaman

[Aleolus]

Good question, I had forgotten some of those dragons.

Hey! How did I miss this thread dripping with dragons?

Nice work Freyar, and thanks for the ref to my work. I've got some minor edits to upload in a few hours.

Are you going to do the arcane dragons (hex and tome), lung dragons, missing chromatics (orange, purple, yellow), and ferrous dragons?

You don't hang out in this forum enough? Well, neither do I, really.

Any edits I should take into account?

I don't have the sources for the arcane dragons or lung dragons, so I can't add those. I'd welcome anyone else adding them to this thread, and I'd be happy to put those contributions on my spiffy html version of this, too (with credit, of course). Where are the orange and purple dragons? I have the version of the yellow from the CC, will do all the CC and ferrous dragons eventually. I'd add your aquatics, but I don't think enough people have access to them.

Just a heads up to people that I've updated the fang dragon on my web version here. (I tried to fix the wonky claw attack.) Also, I've noted that force breath weapons should use d4 damage dice for balance reasons.

two new totems

It's been a while, but there are two new totem dragons on my site. (Also, I've shifted the ectoplasmic dragon to planar dragons.)

Gem Dragons

• Amber Dragon; Creature Catalog; NG,LN,N,CN,NE; Jump,Spot,Survival; Hunter (Ex): You gain track as a bonus feat. Always active.; Cone of superheated sap (Use d4 damage dice for fire damage; in addition, anyone failing the Ref save is entangled as the spell for 1d4 rounds. DC to break out of the sap is the breath weapon DC) (Associated resistance and immunity are to fire.)

Faerunian Dragons

• Maztican Dragon, aka Rain Dragon, aka Tlalocoatl; Creature Catalog; LN,NE,LE; Spellcraft, Survival, Swim; Water Breathing (Ex): You can breathe underwather indefinitely and can freely use spells and other abilities underwater (always active).; Cone of cold

 

[Nifft]

There was a thread somewhere else with ideas about non-draconic "patron critters" for the Shaman to idolize. Here's what I recall:

Ankheg (link)

• NG, LN, N, CN, NE
• Jump, Listen, Knowledge (geography)
• See Invisibility (Sp): As the spell, except you can target yourself only (at will)
• Line of Acid

Behir (link)

• NG, LN, N, CN, NE
• Hide, Spot, Survival
• Spider Climb (Sp): As the spell, except you can target yourself only (at will)
• Line of Electricity

Frost Worm (link)

• NG, LN, N, CN, NE
• Hide, Listen, Perform (vocal)
• Endure Elements (Sp): As the spell, except you can target yourself only (at will)
• Cone of Cold

Pyrohydra (link)

• NG, LN, N, CN, NE
• Spot, Survival, Swim
• Water Breathing (Ex)
• Cone of Fire

Thanks, Nifft! Do you know who came up with these? I wonder if they'd let me post these on my web page (w/credit, of course).

Me.

You can post them.

[freyar]

Very cool, I will do that sooner or later!

Updated to include Nifft's nondragon totems.

 

[Nifft]

Just want to say that I like how you've done the web page, with links to spells and monsters. Very convenient.

Cheers, -- N
