[QUOTE="Cleon, post: 5974001, member: 57383"] Okay then. Updating [URL="http://www.enworld.org/forum/5966616-post1014.html"][B]Cocoadaemon Working Draft[/B][/URL]. Updating [URL="http://www.enworld.org/forum/5966620-post1015.html"][B]Chocodeva Working Draft[/B][/URL]. I revised the Chocolaty Goodness and Sickeningly Sweet abilities to tidy up some loose ends. I made them both cumulative, and gave a damage value to match the Cocoadaemon's Fattening. [B]Chocolaty Goodness (Su[/B][B][COLOR=Red]?[/COLOR][/B][B]):[/B] Any living creature that takes a good-sized bite out of a chocodeva receives the effects of an [I]aid[/I] spell for 1 hour. The duration stacks if a creature eats more than one bite. The chocodeva takes damage equal to the creature's bite attack (without any Strength modifier) or, if the creature does not have bite as a natural weapon, lethal damage equal to an unarmed strike (1d2 for a Small creature, 1d3 for Medium). However, if the chocodeva disapproves of the creature that bites it, the creature must save against the effects of its Sickeningly Sweet quality (see below) or be sickened and gain no benefit from Chocolaty Goodness. [B]Sickeningly Sweet (Su[COLOR=Red]?[/COLOR]):[/B] Any creature that eats (or makes a successful bite attack against) a chocodeva without its permission must succeed at a DC 12 Fortitude save or be sickened for 1 hour. The duration is cumulative for multiple bites. A creature affected by sickening sweetness loses any Chocolaty Goodness benefits (see above) it may have received. The save DC is Charisma-based. It's currently equal to unarmed strike, which means a single cocoademon is enough for 16 creatures up to Small size (an ounce or two apiece?), 8 Medium-sized creatures, 6 Large, 4 Huge and so on. That seems a bit high, now you mention it. Maybe I should set it at a base of 1d6 for Medium "biters" (or bite damage if higher)? [B]Chocolaty Goodness 2 (Su[/B][B][COLOR=Red]?[/COLOR][/B][B]):[/B] Any living creature that takes a good-sized bite out of a chocodeva receives the effects of an [I]aid[/I] spell (caster level [B]X[/B]?) for 1 hour. The duration stacks if a creature eats more than one bite. The chocodeva takes 1d6 damage or the creature's bite attack dice without any Strength modifier, if that is higher. However, if the chocodeva disapproves of the creature that bites it, the creature must succeed at a DC12 Fortitude save against the chocodeva's Sickeningly Sweet quality (see below) or be sickened and gain no benefit from Chocolaty Goodness. Yes, we should write something up. [/QUOTE]
