More GH Help

Hi all-
As the Downloads Editor of CanonFire.com, I know that we'd love to host this type of thing. Right now we're doing a 'post-fest' for Greyhawk stuff - and we don't care about edition. I posted a poll about a year or so ago about which is your favorite Greyhawk Monster - Norker, Bullywugs, and so many others. Norker is my favorite and luckily found in one of the the LGJ's.
If you want or need more help, I'd suggest either posting this to CF's forums, greytalk@canonfire.com, or even WotC's GH board. I don't usually cruise this section of the EN World (I like the software forum here) and stumpled upon it.

I'd love to help in either turning this into a PDF - either if its a list and a place where to find the creatures or something else, as well as offering free web hosting. I already offer free web hosting for anything Greyhawk (in particular) or D&D at GreyhawkOnline.com. This is right up GHO's alley in terms of things. This web hosting is also open to anybody else that needs free web space. I have too much and don't do anything with it - as you can see by the bare bones front page I have.
 

Aha! Didn't read your purpose closely enough. Yup, I'm sure all those "classics" have been well-covered ;) . Since most of the OAD&D Greyhawk creatures from the modules were included in FF or the MM2, they're probably well enough known that they've already been converted. The only ones I can think of that might not have are some of those from WG5: Mordenkainen's Fantastic Adventure (since that module came out after the MM2). From memory (pretty fresh 'cause I just re-read it recently) the new creatures in it were:

Demon, Kerzit
Cochlin
Hetfish
Slow Shadow
Tyrg

As for 2E Greyhawk stuff, can't help you there...
 

thanks theocrat. if you couldn't tell from all the links, i'm converting monsters for the Creature Catalog, and i wish to cater to WoG fans at the moment. ;) if a list is what you are looking for, i can always compile the results of this and post them somewhere for people to check on and update.

and as for WG5:

Demon, Kerzit
Cochlin
Hetfish

those are all with 3.5 stats. and i commented on slow shadow and tyrg above. ;)

Well, that's good enough. ;) I hope I didn't just duplicate others.


Eric Anondson
 

Wow diaglo, that’s more than I expected. :) is most of that from the original original D&D you’re always singing the praises of?

I do recognize Greyhawk Adventures though – right on the cusp of AD&D 1st edition and 2nd edition, kind of caught in between the two. ;) I see that I addressed all the ones from that book already, except for
Changecat

Wow!

Hi all-
I like what Eric & Boz did. That's exactly what I was thinking was being done - a list of creatures from each Greyhawk source and where they can be found for the current edition. That's what's needed. Are you guys compiling this into somehting more specific so that it doesn't die when this thread does?
