Converting Epic Level Beings

no, i'm not going to keep everything with having psionics, only in special cases (like the utukku for example) where the creature is unique or appears to have psionics as an important part of their nature.

Fair enough. That will definitely make our jobs easier.

ok, here is some commentary:

looks like cronos has something of a connection with time, although that is/was not his main aspect. so, while having a few powers associated with time will be ok, i do not want to make it his main focus.

Well, at the very least give him time stop, and probably haste and slow.

ok, cronos.

Titan, Greater, Cronus
Special Qualities: damage reduction X/epic, darkvision 60 ft, shapechange, spell resistance 36

Cronus is 100 feet tall and weighs X pounds.

"Cronus dear, you've forgotten to do your shoelaces up again"

"Not my fault Rhea, my darkvision only gets to my knees."

Any chance of extending the range of the darkvision?

Have a Happy New Year all.

LOL.

Good point, really. If something is that huge, you'd think it would need the greater vision. On the other hand, WOTC set this unfortunate precedent. The tarrasque can't see it's tail in the dark.

The Tarrasque interacts with its enviroment by eating everything. Seeing or not seeing isn't going to make a huge difference.

ok, we can make it 120 standard for these guys.

O.K. A few comments on Cronos before we get to carried away.

1. Give all the elder titans 600' darkvision, this puts them on par with most deities, and makes a lot of sense.

2. Give him more HD, he is the king of the titans for cryin' out loud.

3, Give him SR equal to his CR+20, yes +20, he is epic after all.

4, DR 20/epic and lawful and good?

5, Spell-like abilities: True strike, gentle repose, haste, freedom of movement, permanency, contingency, mass haste, foresight, time stop, protection from law, shatter, magic circle against law, chaos hammer, dispel law, animate objects, word of chaos, cloak of chaos, summon monster IX*, protection from good, desecrate, magic circle against good, unholy blight, dispel good, create undead, blasphemy, and unholy aura,
*cast as chaos or evil spell only
(Note that these spells are the ones from the Chaos, Evil, and Time domains, the time domain if from FRCS, but all it's spells are in the PHB).

6, give him no less than three epic spells of choice (I suggest that one of them is the animus blizzard.

Later,
