Converting Epic Level Beings

[Shade]

How do these look?

Aura of Simian Undeath (Su): All ape, monkey, and other simian corpses within x feet of Ilsidahur arise as skeletons or zombies under Ilsidahur's command. Ilsidahur can command up to 60 HD of undead in this manner.

Aura of Simian Command (Su): All simian creatures feel a strange bond of attraction to Ilsidahur. Before such a creature takes any hostile action against Ilsidahur, it must attempt a DC X Will save. Failure indicates that the creature's action fails and is wasted. This aura extends to a radius of 120 feet. The save DC is Charisma-based.

Look good! What do you think about the normal SLAs? For the symbol, I think I'd suggest symbol of pain. (Or is it supposed to be that he can choose whichever symbol he wants 3/day?)

 

[Shade]

Looking at the others, it appears a single symbol. I agree with symbol of pain.

Updated Homebrews.

 

[freyar]

Sounds good. We need one more 3/day SLA possibly. How about wall of thorns?

 

[Shade]

Sounds good.

Skills: 288 (+4 Hide, +10 Jump)
Bar-lgura Skills: Balance, Climb, Hide, Intimidate, Jump, Listen, Move Silently, Spot, Tumble

How about max ranks in Balance, Bluff, Climb, Concentration, Hide, Intimidate, Jump, Knowledge (nature), Knowledge (the planes), Listen, Move Silently, Spot, Tumble?

Feats: Dodge, Mobility, Run, 7 more
Suggestions: Combat Expertise, Improved Initiative, Multiattack, Power Attack, Quicken Spell-Like Ability, Spring Attack, Whirlwind Attack

We can swap one for Dark Speech in an "If you're using Fiendish Codex I" sidebar.

For natural armor, the FC version of both Baphomet and Demogorgon (the "greater aspects") have +27 natural armor. Shall we give the same to Ilsidahur?

 

[freyar]

All sounds good for me. Which SLA do you want to quicken? (And should Quicken SLA be the one that gets swapped for Dark Speech?)

 

[Shade]

Quicken telekinesis?

And yes, that can be an easy swapout for Dark Speech.

Summon Tanar'ri (Sp): Once per day, Ilsidahur can automatically summon 1d4 bar-lguras (or 1d4 x if you aren't using Fiendish Codex I), or summon 1d2 nalfeshnees with a 75% chance of success. This ability is the equivalent of a 9th-level spell.

x = babau?

Organization: Solitary or Ilsidahur plus 2d4 bar-lguras?

Treasure: Triple standard?

Weight? A bar-lgura is 300 pounds at 5 feet tall. Ilsidahur is 8 feet tall. A dire ape stands about 9 feet tall and weighs from 800 to 1,200 pounds. So maybe 700 pounds?

 

[freyar]

That all sounds good! Does he need anything else?

 

[Shade]

I added "Ilsidahur's natural weapons, as well as any weapons he wields, are treated as chaotic-aligned and evil-aligned for the purpose of overcoming damage reduction."

Otherwise, I think we're finished.

 

[freyar]

Wow, these epic ones always give me a big sense of accomplishment. Makes me wish I could get a campaign up to those levels. But if I ever run Savage Tide, you can bet Ilsidahur is showing up somewhere!
