Arms are a good idea , but 4 - 6 arms sounds too much like a marilith ... it'll have 2 arms.


It'll have these ability scores : Str 15, Dex 10, Con 17, Int 13, Wis 15, Cha 11.
So, here are its attacks :
Attacks : Spear + 11 melee, sting +6 melee; or beam +11 ranged touch
Damage : Spear 1d8+2; sting 1d8+1 plus poison; beam 1d4 plus stunning

Please suggest possible special abilities. It will have stunning (Fort or be stunned 1d2 rounds) on a beam hit, and poison (primary damage paralysis 1 minute, secondary damage paralysis 1d4 turns) on a sting attack hit. Any other ideas? Maybe something related to force, since its beam is a "laser" ray of pure force.

The Naga in the MM don't have arms. (Shinomen nagas have, however, but they come from L5R.) With 2 arms, it will look like a salamander or a greater medusa.

Krishnat: Have you played at <i>Heroes of Might & Magic</i> ? Nagas there have four arms, and 6 arms for naga queens. (And yes, they look awfully like Mariliths, a good-aligned version maybe, but I often say "marilith" instead of "naga"...)
 

Yes, but the idea of nagas with arms is originally from india. The idea was brought to my attention when I saw the golden voyage of sinbad some 15 years ago.

Also, I have a psionic naga with six arms somewhere on the homebrews forum. If you look for it (and find it :D) would you be so kind as to bump it? :D
