Converting original D&D and Mystara monsters

[GrayLinnorm]

Would heat metal work as a substitute for earth to fire? It's the closest thing I can think of.

There's also transmute rock to lava (Complete Arcane, Spell Compendium), but it's not a core spell.

Pyrotechnics for affect normal fires?

 

[Shade]

Good suggestions. We could probably make a unique SLA based off transmute rock to lava.

Pyrotechnics makes sense for affect normal fires. I think we also did a variant in a not-too-distant conversion to affect fires. I'll hunt for it.

Found it!

Control Flames (Su): As a standard action, a feng huang can pyrokinetically control the intensity or movements of one fire source. This functions exactly like the control flames psionic power, treating the feng huang as a 20th-level manifester for determining the power's effects.

I could go either way, but I think the control flames option is a little more versatile.

Why not both?

 

[Shade]

Why not both?

Indeed.

 

[freyar]

Sure, let's give it pyrotechnics and control flame (at manifester level 9?). Both at will?

However, helions can twist their bodies in an extraordinary range of motion; they can shnnk down to a mere 1 foot across or expand their diameters to 40 feet.

Something like enlarge/reduce person (self only)?

 

[demiurge1138]

Something like an efreet's change size, but over a wider range? (Tiny to Huge).

 

[freyar]

Right, I think that's basically what I was saying (efreet's ability is based on those spells). But I agree, it needs to be extended.
