Under Overhaul, I see Xantravar listed, but I can't seem to find that in Homebrews.
And these two were listed on this page a while back, but seems to have disappeared without being uploaded to the CC:

I'm surprised no one has converted the fiery fey creature known as a Firetail from Forgotten Realms Monstrous Compendium. Any chance that can be done soon? (there's the firetail and the stronger, spellcasting kind called tshala)

The Planewalker crew did a conversion of both firetails back in 2006. You can find them in the Denizens of the Inner Planes.

Says "Page Not Found". Also, firetails wouldn't be an Elemental anyway. Their description states they're Fey.

Hi - do you folks still take requests? If so, may I please request a 3.5 update of the cessirid and the illithidae templates?
By the way, is the main Creature Catalog site no longer being updated?

We do still take requests! I'll add 'em to the Overhaul queue.
I'm just woefully behind. Real Life (TM) got much busier...I'll try to get an update soon!

Sure, we'll add them to the queue. I think we can look at those once we finish the neogi undead old master.

We're near the start of a long set of conversions in our Planescape thread, but maybe we can fit those in somewhere else. [MENTION=57383]Cleon[/MENTION], any ideas where?
Not sure if we can actually upload that from the CC (assuming JG means Judge's Guild), but we should be able to convert it assuming someone has the stats.
Here are the stats taken from the write up in Verbosh booklet. They were not done in MM still, I put them that way, hope it is understandable.

Opening this door, a thick dark mist will come pouring out of the circular room, above that is the 9th level and top level of the tower. This mist causes all to save vs. fear or they will flee the tower by the shortest possible route presented to them. Note, this may mean out the door on 8th level (splat). This room has a central raised dias with a large chair of carved Ivory resting upon it. The demon of the mists, Searvash, was summoned out to the abyss by the original builder of the tower. Since the time of the first Wizard's death, Searvash has taken control of the tower. Searvash will be seated upon the ivory dias facing the party when they enter. As long as he is seated on the dias, all are affected as a symbol of, pain. While seated, Searvash has the ability to ESP anyone within the room.
Searvash has the following powers and attributes: AC: -2, HP: 110, fights as 12 HD. He appears as a semi-solid shape with a huge reptilian head, the entire body has a misted over type of appear¬ance that in the thick fog of the room makes it seem somewhat doubtful if there is really anything solid there at all. His normal move is 10" or he may choose to assume a gaseous form in which case his speed becomes 30". Searvash may do any of the following at will: Turn Rock to Mud (quicksand), Polymorph. Searvash may breath out a fog of poisonous gas once per three melee rounds, treat as a cloud kill with anyone not making saving throw going into a state of suspended animation until Searvash can eat the victim alive at his leisure. At any time, this demon may Dimension Door, Lightning or Gate in another demon. Gated demons will appear 75% of the time and the Gated demon may be Type I, 25%; Type II, 30%; Type III, 15%; Type IV, 10%; or Type V, 20% chance. Alone, Searvash gets 4 attacks per round. One does 1 - 6 points of damage and a save vs. poison is necessary. The teeth of this creature can inflict from 3 - 30 points of damage and the front claws can strike for 2 - 12 each. He can cause fear at will like a Fear Wand in addition to his mists that were mentioned earlier. He is also able to levitate and to emanate a Continual Dark spell at will.
He can cause disease at touch and in this case he gets a +2 chance to hit. A +1 or better weapon is required in order for any weapon to do him damage and as it is +1 weapons do only l/2 damage. His magic resistance is 75%, Holy Water will irritate him but will do no damage. However, a Purify Water spell cast upon him will do 1 six-sided die of damage for every 2 levels of the caster but against this, he gets a saving throw that halves damage if successful. If attacked psionically, he will strike back with a strength of 275 and he has all attack defense modes. In cases where he is not psionically attacked, he will usually not use psionics, preferring to use his other attack forms. If by some miracle, he is slain, before he can Dimension Door away or he has a chance to go gaseous and escape, Searvash is returned to the abyss.

Sorry, I didn't notice these request until today. So little happens "above the line" I rarely check the stickied threads.
The Quasi-Elementals are probably going to occupy the Converting Planescape monsters thread for some time, but I can see us doing the Tso on another thread.
How about we start converting the Tso on either Converting monsters from Second Edition Monstrous Compendiums or Converting Creatures from Other Campaign Settings and continuing with the Quasi-Elementals on the Planescape thread?
Tso are basically larger, tougher astrally-travelling Neogi with a cooperative spellcasting ability. That shouldn't take long to convert.
We can't upload Searvash to the Creature Catalog, but there's nothing to prevent us doing a Homebrew conversion like we do for the occasional Mayfair Games Monster.
