[QUOTE="Cleon, post: 8249365, member: 57383"] Updating [URL='https://www.enworld.org/threads/converting-monsters-from-dragon-magazine.290367/post-7882532'][B]Worry-Wart Working Draft[/B][/URL]. Not quite! For a start, they have no tactics entry under combat, which considering their nature is going to be simple: [SIZE=5][B]Combat[/B][/SIZE] A worry-wart's only "attack" is its ability to symbiotically bond with a host, an action it can only perform once. Once it has bonded to a host the resulting symbiont network can aid its host in battle with its Constant Vigilance ability, alerting them to anything that looks threatening even if the host is asleep. The worry-wart's all-around vision lets it see danger approach from directions its host cannot see, including flank attacks. For the "[COLOR=blue]More about [I]nibish-riule[/I].[/COLOR]" section, how about: Very little is known about a [I]nibish-riule's[/I] true nature, not even what plane they call home. A popular theory is that they are distant relatives to [I]ihagnim[/I], the Astral creatures that form [I]bags of devouring[/I]. The most paranoid savants rave that [I]nibish-riule[/I] are more puissant and malevolent than [I]ihagnim[/I] and worry-warts are spies and scouts for a transdimensional invasion, but this seems entirely contrary to their observed behavior. EDIT: Or… Very little is known about a [I]nibish-riule's[/I] true nature, not even what plane they call home. A popular theory is they are distant relatives of the transdimensional predators who form [I]bags of devouring[/I], such as the [I]ihagnim[/I] and the sessile marine creature called a devourer (not the undead monster). One paranoid savant has raved that [I]nibish-riule[/I] are more puissant and malevolent than [I]ihagnim[/I] and dispatch worry-warts as spies and scouts for a world-devouring invasion, but this seems entirely contrary to their observed behavior.
