[QUOTE="Cleon, post: 8585673, member: 57383"] That looks a lot better. Shouldn't the swarm do poison damage though? Deaths from bee sting are generally caused by their venom not by being jabbed by their stings. An average humanoid [B][URL='https://www.5esrd.com/gamemastering/monsters-foes/npc/npc-commoner/']Commoner[/URL][/B] with their mere 4 hit points would be killed by the 2d4+3 piercing damage long before the accumulated exhaustion could threaten their health. There are a few typos in the entry by the way, I noticed: Initial description's "an adventurer who [COLOR=red][B]think's[/B][/COLOR] their honey an easy snack may find [COLOR=red][B]them selves[/B][/COLOR] at the end of a stinger" should be "an adventurer who thinks their honey an easy snack may find themselves at the end of a stinger". [B][SIZE=5]Bee[/SIZE] [I]Fatal Sting[/I][/B] the "it's hitpoints" should be "its hit points". [SIZE=5][B]Swarm of Bees[/B][/SIZE] The "Tiny beasts beast" in the Type should be "Tiny beasts". [B][I]Swarm[/I][/B] the "gaurd" should be "guard". [B][I]Fatal Sting[/I][/B] the "looses 2 hitpoint's" should be "loses 2 hit points". [B][SIZE=5]Queen Bee[/SIZE][/B] I doubt the [B]Armor Class[/B] 6, [B]Speed[/B] 5 ft., 5 ft. fly or [B]DEX[/B] 2 are correct. [B][I]Royal Gaurd[/I][/B] should be "guard" and "temparary hitpoints" should be "temporary hit points". [B][I]Call Reinforcements[/I][/B] the "pheramone" should be "pheromone." I'd also suggest tidying the wording to "The queen bee lets out a pheromone that lets all bees of her hive know she is in danger. This causes 1 swarm of bees to appear within 30 feet of the queen."
