Converting Epic Level Creatures

Let's hold off on the weapon until we do his gear to see if something springs out at us.

What do you think about the minor negative dominant? We'd have to make him immune to negative energy, which is a little different from the original but not too much. Another possibility, also a little stretch, is making the plane have wild magic (that he is also immune to).

 

[Shade]

As much as I like wild magic, I think that's too much of a stretch in this case. The minor negative-dominant idea is good, and since the area heals him, I wonder if we shouldn't allow him to be healed by both positive and negative energy? Tomb-tainted doesn't seem a good fit here, since the original text mentioned him favoring some healing spells.

 

[freyar]

Say we go with minor negative dominant and healed also by negative energy, does he get fast healing 2 there, like a regular character does in a minor positive dominant plane? We should specify it in his negative healing ability, I guess.

So, want to do that?

 

[Shade]

I like that idea.

As for equipment, we already gave him a cloak of Charisma +6, periapt of Wisdom +4, bracers of armor +8, and ring of elemental command [air]). Does that suffice?

CR 21?

The Opawang is x feet tall and weighs x pounds. 5-1/2 and 150 pounds?

 

[freyar]

How about a rod of withering? Seems thematically appropriate, and it would give him a weapon. Your call if it's too much.

The rest sounds good. I'll write up the demiplane and the healing ability (do we already have a positive and negative healing ability somewhere?) later tonight.

 

[freyar]

Dual Healing (Su): Due to unique magical rituals he has performed, the Opawang is healed both by positive energy (for example, cure spells) and negative energy (for example, inflict spells). In addition, he is immune to energy drain attacks??

The Dead Lands are a demiplane now ruled by the Opawang. They are coterminus with the Material Plane at a particular portal in the dungeons beneath the Opawang's temple. While the Dead Lands resemble the Material Plane in physical, alignment, and magical traits, they are minor negative energy dominant, so all living creatures in the Dead Lands take 1d6 negative energy damage per round, unless they are protected from negative energy. Due to the Opawang's Dual Healing ability, negative dominant planes act upon him like positive dominant planes on all living creatures, and he therefore gains fast healing 2 in the Dead Lands.

 

[Shade]

Great idea on the underused rod of withering!

The rest looks good.

Updated.

Bump treasure to triple standard to account for all his items?

The Opawang speaks Abyssal, Celestial, Common, Draconic, Infernal, and Shou?

 

[freyar]

That all sounds good. Is he done, then?

 

[Shade]

I think so!

 

[Nookie]

Ok so whats next?

I say Fafnir havent done anything Norse in a while.
