Second, though the mob template does not keep the distraction special quality<span style="color: white"> that swarms have, I thought it was appropriate for this mob. I had to take out the group attack ability as it did not work with how mobs and swarms attack. </span></p><p></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS'"><span style="color: white"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'">Cloverfield Parasite Infestationffice<img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f631.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":o" title="Eek! :o" data-smilie="9"data-shortname=":o" />ffice" /><O<img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue :p" data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" />></O<img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue :p" data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" />></span></span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS'"><span style="color: white"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'">Gargantuan Mob composed of Medium Vermin<O<img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue :p" data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" />></O<img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue :p" data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" />></span></span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS'"><span style="color: white"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'">Hit Dice: 30d8+90 (225 hp)<O<img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue :p" data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" />></O<img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue :p" data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" />></span></span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS'"><span style="color: white"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'">Initiative: +0<O<img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue :p" data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" />></O<img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue :p" data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" />></span></span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS'"><span style="color: white"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'">Speed: 20 ft.

[QUOTE="dyspro, post: 5051686, member: 44458"] Hello there! As promised, I dug out the old 3.5 DMG II and statted up the Cloverfield parasites that Khisanth created as a mob. There are some things I think I should clear up before the stat block. First, a mob of CR 3 creatures is only CR 8 by this template. Second, though the mob template does not keep the distraction special quality[COLOR=white] that swarms have, I thought it was appropriate for this mob. I had to take out the group attack ability as it did not work with how mobs and swarms attack.
