Message: <blockquote data-quote="BOZ" data-source="post: 1834261" data-attributes="member: 1241">#107I agree completely – in fact, I thought of that soon after posting the queries.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /> Ferocious Swarm (Ex): Like their smaller cousins, FISHs are most dangerous when encountered in a group. A FISH gains a +1 competence bonus on attack rolls and damage for every two FISH adjacent to the target of the FISH's attack.That came from a feat right?  It’s better, I think.  Do you think it would be good to take “swarm” out of the title?  I could call it “ferocious rush” or something like that, or even just “ferocious”Yah, you might be right about that.  Here’s a start on that…Capsize (Ex): FISHs sometimes strike at the underside of boats and rafts in an attempt to turn them over and dump their occupants into the water. A submerged FISH that surfaces under a boat or ship less than 20 feet long capsizes the vessel X% of the time. It has a X% chance to capsize a vessel from 20 to 60 feet long and a X% chance to capsize one over 60 feet long. Multiple FISH can work together to tip over a boat using the standard rules for a group working together and a skill check.#108good one.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f60e.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":cool:" title="Cool    :cool:"  data-smilie="6"data-shortname=":cool:" />  like so?Stench (Ex): THINGs are home to thousands of diseases, and the stench and foulness surrounding a THING is palpable.  All living creatures (except THINGs) within 10 feet of a THING must succeed on a DC 10 Fortitude save or be nauseated for 1d4 rounds.  The save DC is Constitution-based.  Creatures that successfully save cannot be affected by the same THING’s stench for 24 hours.  Creatures with immunity to disease are unaffected.#109see my response under #107.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />thoughts on its abilities?Poison Gas (Ex): Anyone struck by a THING must make a DC 10 Fortitude save to avoid breathing in the creature's poisonous fumes. If the save is failed, the character is nauseated for ld4 rounds.Flammable (Ex): If a THING is struck by a flaming weapon, torch, or other source of fire, it must make a Reflex save at a DC equal to 10 + the amount of fire damage it just took. If the THING fails the save, it is set alight. While the THING is burning, it takes 2d6 damage per round, is enraged (+4 to Strength, +4 to Constitution, -2 to armor class), and anyone struck by it takes ld6 fire damage. When the burning THING reaches -10 hit points, it explodes. Anyone within 10 ft. of an exploding THING takes 3d6 damage (Reflex save, DC10 for half).Gaseous (Ex): THING are permanently in a gaseous state, which gives them the same abilities as a creature in gaseous form.#111yeah, a few different ones.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />And a couple of smothers:It’s not so much like the oozes’ engulf ability though, and in fact it’s very similar to a Swallow Whole. How’s this now:Engulf (Ex): A ELEMENTAL can attempt to pull a Large or smaller creature into its body by making a successful grapple check. An engulfed creature is surrounded with mud and slime, and is subject to being smothered. An engulfed creature may be freed with a successful Strength check.  An engulfed creature can attack the ELEMENTAL with a light slashing or piercing weapon, and cannot cast spells with verbal or somatic components. Creatures trapped within a ELEMENTAL are immediately freed if it dies.I’m going to use the above smother attacks as inspiration here:Smother (Ex): A creature engulfed within a ELEMENTAL must succeed on a DC 18 Fortitude save or swallow some of the ELEMENTAL’s muddy substance and begin to suffocate (see Suffocation rules in the DMG).  An opponent that fails its initial Fortitude save can attempt another DC 18 Fortitude save once every 2d6? rounds, until it succeeds by coughing out the mud. The save DC is Constitution-based.snowflake ooze, heheh…Fluid Form (Ex): An ELEMENTAL's liquid, swirling form causes many physical attacks to pass through it without dealing any damage. It gains DR. 5 against all physical attacks, including those made with magical weapons.Meh… I’m just going to give it DR 5/—</blockquote>
