[QUOTE="Cleon, post: 8275147, member: 57383"] Updating [B][URL='http://enworld.org/index.php?posts/7591319/']The Screaming Child Working Draft[/URL][/B]. I changed the tactics to: Normally the Child will have cast [I]protection from arrows[/I] on itself as soon as it wakes. If given time to get ready for combat it adds [I]resist energy[/I], [I]shield[/I] and [I]haste[/I] plus one of its [I]greater invisibility[/I] scrolls. Should it only have a few rounds to prepare it casts [I]greater invisibility[/I] and [I]haste[/I] first. It isn't - there's no asterisk since that's a bonus feat from its "wizard stuff". A better question is why are six of its fighter bonus feats listed as regular bonus feats!: Better fix that!
