Creature Catalogue Overhaul Project Revisited

Dull-icious! :p

So where were we?

Here, with the following additions:

Immunity to Summons (Su): A vortex is completely unaffected by any conjuration (summoning) or conjuration (calling) spell.

10 ft, 20 ft, and 10 ft for the vortex top width, max height and min height.

Hmm, I just noticed some typos in my previous posts - they will not stand!

Not sure what skill would best help these. Spot, maybe?

Ability Focus (whirlwind) seems good for the feat.

Either all Spot or divide it between Listen and Spot like an Air Elemental.

Going by the original description Vortexes don't seem very aware of (or responsive to) their surroundings.
 


All Spot sounds good. They've got a Wis penatly, after all.

Updated.

So do they just need some flavour text or would you like to argue about Advancement? :p

If you're not giving them an invisibility-type SQ I'd cut the "It moves rapidly in a circular pattern, thereby becoming effectively invisible inside the cone of air" from the tactics.
 


Updated.

While plotting out flavor text, I found this:

The vortex poses a far greater threat than its small size would portend. It is far from malevolent – indeed, it seems blind to the presence of others – but in that blindness it is dangerous.

Should we make it blind?
 



Blind, drop darkvision. And not give them any other special sense to make up for it, either.

I have no objection to that. It would explain why it keeps on bumping into things and sucking them into its whirlwind - it can't see where it's going!
