Lacoliths

[TheFlamingRheo]

My DM has just created the lacoliths, based off of the magic cards and I was wondering what you guys think of this. They can shoot a fireball centered around them as a free action once per round.

Fireball as a free action? Um....kinda outta whack I would say. Even spell-like abilities are standard actions.

What are its HD and CR?

My DM will post the creature later and when he does he will probably try to make me look like an idiot and change it before then.

hmm... sounds nothing like what the lacoliths where described as, but I will wait until I see the actual creature before giving an comments, but it will be interresting.

If you want to see the creatures just bug Gamecat to post him I am sure he will.

very nice, but a few comments:

First, what do their eject fire and burn abilities do?

Second: I would change their creature type to elementals or outsider, Rath is a demiplane after all.

Third, I suggest reducing their Hit Dice, the whelp I would give 2HD, the grunt 4HD, the Warrior 6HD and the Titan 12HD.

Fourth, Will their be a template to emulate the red enchantment that could make any creature into a laccolith?

Fifth, I suggest you reduce their ability scores somewhat, I doubt a creature the size of a goblin is stronger than a Bugbear.

Anyways, quite good work, any ideas on converting the Slivers, oh, wait, I've allready done that, just need a good description of the Mind-Whip sliver. My mind-whip sliver cards where destroyed in a freak accident...

And where are your descriptions of the laccoliths abilities???

Later,
