[QUOTE="Cleon, post: 6144955, member: 57383"] Surely the "float slowly through the skies of Gnibile at a speed of about 12" means they usually fly as "about 12", implying that their maximum speed of 12 is not that much higher than their "cruising" speed. I'm not seeing much support for their normal speed being a quarter of their top speed, which is what your proposal of base speed 15 ft. would mean. More to the point, they have a "12" in their speed line which directly matches to a 3E speed of 30 ft. So I still prefer a 30 ft. (6 squares, cannot Run) approach. If you're dead set against that I'd rather just make it 30 ft. (6 squares) than 15 ft. and add some flavour text about them not hurrying about. Hmm, come to think of it, could a Porton Dive to double its speed? Under the RAW they can, but on a physics point of view how would a weightless incorporeal creature use gravity to accelerate its descent? [/QUOTE]
