Converting monsters from the second edition Monstrous Compendiums

that said...

updated in homebrews!

how does it look now?

Looks good. All that seems to be missing is weight. Since nothing seems to indicate that they aren't physically similar to orcs, and the fact that they are stronger, I'd make them at least 210 pounds like an orc. Maybe a little more for increased muscle mass?

 

[Aspect of BOZ]

225 will do.

i bet you're itching to get on to giving the Zhent-ondonti a stat block now, eh?

Please, for the love of all that is holy, unholy, and rilmani, NO MORE HUMANOIDS FOR AWHILE.

 

[Aspect of BOZ]

no no no... just the stat block. just a few alterations to the one we have. unless it would just be sufficient to say that they are armed with bastard swords or whatnot.

I think that would be sufficient. I don't think they'd be different enough to warrant a separate statblock.

i had another look, and i think this is about the extent of relevant text:
"Ondontis, trained by the Zhentilar usually fight with either a bastard or two-handed sword, and can easily fight with either weapon and a shield. They dislike metal armor and don leather or studded leather when not using their natural barkskin ability."

 

[Shade]

My attempt at a rewrite:

Zhentilar-trained ondontis wield bastard swords or greatswords, often taking Exotic Weapon Proficiency in place of Iron Will in order to wield bastard swords in one hand and benefit from a shield in the other. When not relying on their barkskin spell-like abilitiy, these ondontis don monstly non-metal armors such as leather or studded leather.

 

[Aspect of BOZ]

that will do nicely.
