[QUOTE="Undead Pete, post: 391095, member: 5215"] Ok... Here are my ideas. I apologize if they duplicate any that have been posted already....if they do, just count that as an emphasis on the previous suggestion. [COLOR=LIMEGREEN] [list] [*][B]Spell-like Abilities[/B] - should all be chosen from Druid spells or the Plant Domain, unless obviously appropriate. Some suggestions are listed below. [*][B]Natural Armor[/B] - Hells Yeah....that goes without saying. +10 at the very least....maybe +20 [*][B]Damage Reduction[/B] - Ditto.... at least 10/+2 [*][B]Mobility[/B] - IMHO, not really necessary. I agree with MissHappen on the Burrow/Climb idea. [*][B]Variation on the Yellow Musk Zombie/Spore Cloud idea[/B] - How about this?: The creature will constantly emit a [I]Miasma[/I]-like effect (pg. 91 - Masters of the Wild) of spores. All creatures that are killed by this rise as YMZ's under the creature's control. [*][B]Decomposition[/B] - All opponents within its "aura" range are subject to the constant effect of this spell of the same name (pg. 87, MoW). [*][B]Command Plants[/B] - Goes without saying... [*][B]Entangle[/B] - Yes, but possibly with a larger radius.....maybe as an Empowered spell (that would give it a 60' radius). [*][B]Warp Wood[/B] - Because that would be cool... Elven Archers? Oh darn it all....your bows all look like springs now. :D [*][B]Commune With Nature[/B] - I'd say this creature has connections, wouldn't you?? [*][B]Elemental Resistance[/B] - Why not? I'd say 20 points all around. [*][B]Poison[/B] - Pustules filled with poison ;) They burst as it takes damage and as it uses its Slam Attack. [*][B]Druidic Abilities[/B] - Definitely Woodland Stride, Nature sense, Resist Nature's Lure, Venom Immunity. A Thousand Faces may or may not be appropriate. I don't think Trackless Step makes sense since it leaves a swathe of vegetative corruption wherever it roams. [/list] [/color] I haven't even looked at the ELH yet :D [/QUOTE]
