Converting Psionic Creatures

Because every other monster with a sunderable tentacle I can find in the SRD loses half the tentacle's hp when the tentacle is sundered. Even hydras do that. A roper's strands do seem to be the exception (no damage), but strands are very thin and don't seem precisely to be part of a roper's body the way a tentacle would be.

An udoroot has "crowns" with 7 hp apiece and takes no damage if one is severed.

I'd much rather a Walking Wonder and take no damage on sundering than increase the hp to 2 so you feel better about it suffering 1 damage if it loses a tentacle.

Hallelulah!

Now can anyone remember where we left the working draft? Or who's responsible for it, for that matter...

Hey look, it's a Shade Homebrew.

Good, I felt like putting my feet up. :angel:

No rest for the wicked! :devil:

I just noticed its parenthetical name. Should it's organization be "cell"?

Updated.

We've been debating tentacles so long I forget...did we decide on whether to use the typical "mind blast" of illithids for its psionic blast?

I don't remember us deciding on what version of its dying mind blast to use.

The two earliest have a Mind Flayer mind blast, the most recent does 8d4 force damage with its mind blast.

That suggests to me we give the regular (9-tentacled) wonder a Mind Flayer's Mind Blast Death Throes and the lesser (8-tentacled) wonder a Force Blast Death Throes.
