[QUOTE="Cleon, post: 8186570, member: 57383"] I have no idea what sort of campaign(s) Ray runs. What does it matter so long as they're enjoying the game it doesn't matter how wacky it is! Come to think of it, beholders are murderously chauvenistic towards beholders whose bodies & eyestalks are different from their own (including beholder-kin who have slight differences from the beholder-kin or their "hive"), so if a beholder were to suddenly develop additional eyes it might have a psychotic breakdown, and all its beholder hive-mates would certainly try to kill it. Not really. If we rolled for it I might lose! :p Updating [URL='https://www.enworld.org/threads/converting-monsters-from-dragon-magazine.290367/post-7882532'][B]Worry-Wart Working Draft[/B][/URL]. I'd still be game for allowing surgical removal though, as per: Deciding whether the Constant Vigilance and Infestation SQs need any further amendments (like the surgical network removal above). Then it's Skills & Feats to complete the stats. I'm thinking maxed-out Knowledge (the planes), Search & Spot for the Skills. Alertness seems the obvious Feat boring as it is. I don't think it needs any additional racial bonii. The standard +4 to Search/Spot from All-Around Vision seem enough. [/QUOTE]
