[QUOTE="BOZ, post: 3107787, member: 1241"] i thought you'd had an idea for the Str score, is why i was asking. :) i could have missed it, but i didn't see any size specifics listed in the original text. it was listed as "S" so i went with Small. we could make it the same as a will-o-wisp, or we could go with just anything in the chart on p314 of the MM: 2-4 ft and 8-60 lbs, or whatever else makes sense. i don't think we discussed this ability: and this is what we have for that: Engulf (Ex): A nimbus in the form of St. Elmo’s fire can attempt to surround an opponent and electrocute it. It cannot make a touch attack during a round in which it electrocutes. As a standard action, the nimbus moves into the space of another creature, filling that space up with its energy form. Opponents can make attacks of opportunity against the nimbus, but if they do so they are not entitled to a saving throw. A victim who does not attempt an attack of opportunity must succeed at a Reflex save (DC 16) or be engulfed by the nimbus; on a success, they are pushed back or aside (opponent’s choice) as the nimbus moves forward. Engulfed creatures are subject to the nimbus’ shock touch, and are considered to be grappled and trapped within its body. The nimbus can only use this attack up to four times per day, as further attacks will drain its energy. [/QUOTE]
