BOOM! Aah, it burns!

What are the rules for creatures with acidic or damaging blood/whatevers?

I know that whenever you attack them with a piercing or slashing weapon, anyone in 5' is effected. But are there any hard and fast rules?

Are they just hit? Do they get a reflex save?

 

[Crothian]

Under the creatures that have this ability it should say. I can't recall any off the top of my head, but I think they do include reflex saves.

The reason I ask is because I'm trying to create a monster that's a cross between a Praying Mantis and an Alien (From aliens), so it's going to have acidic blood.

And then I need to figure the mechanic for it rupturing upon death...

 

[Crothian]

I'd suggest lookingthrough monster books till you find a monster with this ability and see if you can determine how they do it.

Cool sounding creature by the way.

 

[Xarlen]

Yep, they're fiendish creatures from the lower planes. I'll use Two of them with a Drider as their 'herder'.

These things are nasty. A spit attack like a Tanglefootbag, Improved Grab and sqeeze (Ala praying mantis), Acidic Blood, and Rupture. And reach.

Someone has a xenomorphic template somewhere round here....

 

[Xarlen]

On second thought, I'll make it Medium sized. More scary when it's your hight.

Xenomorphic?
