[QUOTE="Bretbo, post: 3286705, member: 18497"] OK, love the "Big Shiny PDF", wulf! Thought I might take a stab at stating up the SRD Monsters. Have a few questions: How should we stat monsters that come with stats for various sizes? Give the "smallest" and let the GM use Monster Adjustment to advance them? That doesn't seem like the best way, give the stats for a wyrmling Gold Dragon just doesn't seem to capture the beast as it should be listed. What about the description. Should we use the SRD listed one or make up my own? For F.Y.I., here are some examples of what I've got so far written exactly like they are in the SRD: [B]CENTAUR[/B] [I]HD4d8+8 (26 hp), AC14, By Weapon +7 melee/+5 ranged [/I] A centaur is as big as a heavy horse, but much taller and slightly heavier. A centaur is about 7 feet tall and weighs about 2,100 pounds. [B]CHIMERA[/B] [I]HD9d10+27 (76 hp), AC19, Natural +12 melee (2d6+4), Breath Weapon (type by color of dragon head, once every 1d4 rounds, deals 3d8 damage, and DC 17 Phys + DEX save for half damage)[/I] A chimera is about 5 feet tall at the shoulder, nearly 10 feet long, and weighs about 4,000 pounds. A chimera’s dragon head might be black, blue, green, red, or white. [B]COCKATRICE[/B] [I]HD5d10 (27 hp), AC14, Natural +9 melee (1d4–2 plus petrification, DC 12 Phys + STR save)[/I] A male cockatrice has wattles and a comb, just like a rooster. Females, much rarer than males, differ only in that they have no wattles or comb. A cockatrice weighs about 25 pounds. [/QUOTE]
