Converting prehistoric creatures

Agreed to Medium size and the higher Con.

Added to Homebrews.

Which 2 of the elephant's feats should we retain?
Feats: Alertness, Endurance, Iron Will, Skill Focus (Listen)

 

[freyar]

Keep Alertness and Iron Will, I think.

 

[InsanePsychoRabbit]

We should keep Alertness and either Endurance or Iron Will.

 

[demiurge1138]

Alertness and Iron Will.

 

[Cleon]

Alertness and Iron Will.

You're clearly personages of enormous taste and insight in your Feat choices... since they agree with mine.

What about attacks, are we going to just give it tusk gore attacks like the original, or downsized foot stamps & trunk slams as well? I prefer the latter.

Splitting its Skill points equally and adding Alertness gives in Spot +6 and Listen +6.

That would just leave Challenge Rating, Advancement and Flavour Text / Tactics.

Nearly there!

Everyone agrees on the Alertness so it's a go. Tusk and trunk attacks are ideal, as it's too small to stamp any Medium-sized PC. (Maybe a prone halfling or gnome, eh?)

I don't believe there's any official rule applying size restrictions to Stomp attacks like their is for Trample, so that doesn't bother me. Besides, the dwarf elephant could always rear up to kick with its forefeet, like Champion the Wonder Horse.

 

[demiurge1138]

I think it should be gore only, like the original.

 

[freyar]

Just gore, I think. They don't seem like they'd have stamps as natural attacks, though it might be worth mentioning that they can use them as unarmed strikes.

3 ranks each in Listen and Spot, I guess?

CR 2?
