[QUOTE="Sarelth, post: 1018107, member: 13038"] Here are some more of my works, not redone to 3.5 yet, but soon perhaps. ------------ "All I seen when I woked up were smoke, I tawtt me hovel were on fyrre or som'tin! Then I Sawed dat da Smoke had Eyes, it did. That were when I got da Nine Hells Outa der. I ain't ne'r gonna go back neider! Dem thins got me pet Rat, pore liddle guy, I misses dat rat.

Feral Shadow (Template) Feral Shadows appear as smoky versions of normal animals and vermin. Their bodies are made up of billowing smoke that is completely incorporeal. For the most part they act like normal animals, except that they seem to dislike the living a great deal more than normal. It seems some unknown force controls these undead, as they attack certain victims with their Disease causing attack, while others are left alone. Creating a Feral Shadow “Feral Shadow” is a template that can be added to any nonmagical tiny, small or medium animal or vermin. No intelligent creatures have ever been known to be transformed into this form of undead. The creature’s type stays the same and gains “Undead”. It uses all of the base creature’s statistics and special abilities except as noted here. Speed/Movement: Fly 50' (poor) HD: Increase to D12 AC: Dex Mod, +1 Deflection Bonus.

Combat: The feral shadows hide in the darkness and firelight waiting for a oportunity to attack. Breath of Disease: This attack is not the Feral Shadow's Breath, it is the Feral Shadow itself. If they can get to a sleeping victim they travel into the vistims lungs via the mouth, nose, etc. Once they are inside, they are free from any attack unless they are somehow forced out. The Victim that they are hiding in gets one Fort Save (DC 12) per hour or develops a very painful lung disease that causes 1d4 hp damage an hour from extreme coughing and hacking.
