[QUOTE="Aspect of BOZ, post: 3141762, member: 41113"] wrote these two up first, since they were in the same book. let me know what you think! Bionoid Construct?? Monstrous Humanoid??, CR 10? These large NG insectoid humanoids were once elves that have been re-engineered for warfare. A bionoid has an iridescent exoskeleton with hard claw-like blades protruding from its forearms and head. It has an insect-like compound eye plus four independently-moving eyes. A glowing circular gem in its forehead, if removed, caused the bionoid to decompose immediately; if crushed, the bionoid is irrevocably destroyed. A bionoid can slash with its 2 arm-blades and slam with its spiked fists, and kick with its heel spurs, making all of these attacks in the same round due to agility as part of a leap attack; it can also constrict in its arms (Str 22). It can also wield a specialized halberd with blades on each end. It can open its chest plates once per combat to launch a fireball-like effect from a special membrane. Bionoids are deeply loners, though they work well with others and like to be productive. Originally found in Monstrous Compendium MC9 - Spelljammer Appendix II (1991) Firelich Undead, CR 12? A firelich is created unintentionally when a spellcaster is preparing himself to become a lich. Some sort of mishap, usually an accident involving fire, causes the character to become a firelich instead of a true lich. A firelich resembles a huge comet of flame, with a skull-like face locked in a perpetual scream on the front of the fireball. A firelich spends its existence in excruciating pain, for which it can only find temporary relief by destroying other things. Fireliches look for large flammable objects, such as ships or wooden buildings, and dives into them at high speed. It screams constantly in pain, causing anything looking at it to make a Will save or become frightened. A firelich has turn resistance and spell resistance, but is unable to cast spells and make no attempt to communicate beyond screaming.
