Message: <blockquote data-quote="Cleon" data-source="post: 5158366" data-attributes="member: 57383">Let's use the Table & Example for advancement then.Now that that's settled, shall start on the actual stats?For a basic tombheart we'd better use two 11-HD Wardens as the linked Wardens, since that's the weakest it will go.The current table says it'd be a Small Construct with 11 Hit Dice, although I'd be game for modifying the table to make them start out Medium-sized if you'd prefer them that way.Its stats would probably be pretty similar to a Tomb Warden except for it being immobile and having 4 tendril attacks. The original version has tendrils that do 2d8 damage, but I'll assume that's for a Medium-sized Tombheart and scale the damage down for our Small basic 'heart.So, we've got something like:EDIT: Changed to start out Medium-sized and adding Dispelling Blow.Golem, TombheartMedium ConstructHit Dice: 11d10+30 (80 hp)Initiative: +0Speed: 0 ft.

A Tombheart must be linked to at least two Tomb Wardens, which must all   have the same Hit Dice. The Tombheart has a size and Hit Dice according   to the following table:'No. of  Tomb'''''Tombheart''Wardens'''''Size''''''Hit Dice '''''2'''''As Warden''As Warden * 1 ''''3-4''''As   Warden''As Warden * 1.5 ''''5-6''''As   Warden''As Warden * 2 ''''7-8''''Warden   +1''As Warden * 2.5 ''''9-12'''Warden   +1''As Warden * 3 '''13-16'''Warden   +2''As Warden * 3.5 '''17-24'''Warden   +2''As Warden * 4 '''25-32'''Warden   +3''As Warden * 4.5 '''33-40'''Warden   +3''As Warden * 5  Example: A wall of seven Tomb Wardens will have  a  Tombheart one size larger than the Wardens with 2.5 times the Hit   Dice of each Warden, thus the Tombheart of seven standard Tomb Wardens  (Medium-sized 11 HD) is Large-sized and has 27 Hit Dice.We'll need to modify Wall Bound so it can only strike through stone with its tentacles and note that its Wardens can walk through it as easily as the rest of its wall.Apart from that is their anything you'd like?I wondered about Improved Grab and Constrict for the tentacles, but don't much like the idea - I prefer striking tentacles only.</blockquote>
