Brainstealer Dragon

Nice description.

Astral projection seems to be gone from the ExPsiHB – would astral caravan be a good replacement?

Eeeww...

Seriously, it would not be a good replacement, but it would be the only replacement. Unless we go and make astral projection a true spell-like ability instead of psi-like.

we'll make do with the one we have.

posted... i noticed that true dragons in the MM have something listed for Level Adjustment. not sure what you want to do with this, if anything?

 

[Knight Otu]

Level Adjustment? Tres momenti...

 

[Knight Otu]

Rough guesstimate:

Level Adjustment: Wyrmling +5; very young +5; young +6; others —

 

[BOZ]

cool. everything else look OK there?

 

[Shade]

For the chart, remove attacks from the wyrmling's special abilities, and change "acid and mind blast immunity" to "immunity to acid and mind blasts".

You might not need to put "attacks" as a separate entry, either. The spinewyrm from the recent Dark Sun article in Dungeon simply listed its unusual attacks as part of its Combat text, and did not list them in the special abilities portion of the chart.

 

[BOZ]

right, but it does need to say something about the standard dragon attack forms that it doesn’t have.

 

[Shade]

Absolutely. It just doesn't need to be prefaced by the word "Attacks", which will allow us to cut exactly one word!
