Converting Maztica and Horde monsters

[Shade]

I'd agree with aberration. The Construct type doesn't have the market cornered on "magically created beings".

Now I'll be the first to admit that I don't know anything about the Raja Ambuchar Devayam, but you could argue that dowagu are a constructed undead.

You could. I wish I had more context for these monsters. However, their description is really screaming aberration at me for some reason. Maybe it's the snake body with fur, wings, and many arms, as well as the bizarre powers.

Unfortunately, I don't have this module. Someone else posted the stats in an earlier thread which I just copied over.

If someone with the module would like to provide more context, it would be most appreciated.

The context for the dowagu is that they are the the six "shadowy forms" that act as bodyguards for Ambuchar Devayam, a powerful evil necromancer (himself a "unique form of undead").

They look like this:

Given that, and the picture, I stand by my original statement - undead

The evidence is clear...I'm convinced.

So, Large undead? I know their size says "H", but 12-foot-long puts them comfortably in the Large size range.

Large undead it is!

Now that that's out of the way, let's look at ability scores.

INTELLIGENCE: Exceptional (16)

As an undead, no Con score.

High Dex usually accompanies multi-weapon fighting styles.

Some of the abilities may be Cha-based.

They kind of resemble mariliths, but aren't quite as long.

Marilith stats: Str 29, Dex 19, Con 29, Int 18, Wis 18, Cha 24

How about...

Str 25, Dex 19, Con -, Int 16, Wis 16, Cha 21?

Looks reasonable.
