[QUOTE="S'mon, post: 5861199, member: 463"] Noncombatant (no attack), AC 10, +0 all saves, 1d4 hit points as per a 3e D&D Commoner-1 would work fine for OGL Conan* IMO. It really is not worth worrying about exactly how low her stats are, does she get +1 AC for small size, etc etc. An equally effective way of doing it when rocks fall is to roll a d6: "1-3 she's killed, 4-6 she survives". 'Roll a d6' is the most effective GMing tool known to Man. :D *OGL Conan tends to use 'Heroic' stat lines for what would be 'average' NPCs in 3e D&D. If statting a small child in actual 3e D&D I'd keep the default AC 10 and +0 to saves, but would lower hit points to 1-2 instead of 1-4. Children may be robust in some ways (eg vs falling damage), but small size and lack of muscle mass make small people including children more vulnerable to weapon damage and similar. [/QUOTE]
