Heya. I would like some feedback on this!

I have made a new group of baddies for my d20 Modern/d20 Future campaign and would like to get some opinions on them They are called the Nephilim and based off the "Bugs" in the Alien movies, the Kython from the BoVD, and the main baddies from Wing Commander: Prophecy game.

Well they're certainly nasty.

One quibble is that the bite damage for the broodling should probably be lower than that of the juvenille, since it's a whole size category smaller. Other than that nothing jumped out at me as wrong, but I'm not that familar with the d20 critter rules (I'm more familiar with the D&D 3.5 monster rules) but it looks OK to me.

So where are the hive mother stats?

Thanks for catching that. A Hive mother is more of a title for fully advanced female adults. I am plan on adding more material on them about their egg laying capabilities.

The "Aliens" are documented quite well on Michael Tresca's web site. Might be useful to you.

He has about 180 pages of material based on the Aliens setting (produced in a high quality PDF).

Love the backstory. That's great stuff, and if you can spill that information out in little bits, you can slowly but surely terrify your players. Awesome.

No real comments on their main stats, beyond the "yeah, the bite should be less for the juvenile." My concern as a GM would be implementation. These seem like guys that are designed to show up in an enormous load of badness, a swarm of them attacking the players all at once, and you seem to have created enough special abilities that I'd hesitate to use monsters this complex in large numbers. Do you have a computer utility to quickly make these guys and keep track of their special stuff for you, or did you plan on making a few archetypes and using those for most of the groups?

Otherwise, good stuff. In an alien-esque campaign, that'd be a good ugly bad guy to run into.

I use the wonderful device called a laptop.

I have yet introduced them into the campaign but I plan to give hints to their existance such having the party meet up with past victims first. I need to write up larvae stats for them. I am thinking that they should face Magog (Andromeda) style birthing.
