My god, you're right. You're absolutely right. Anybody for creating 'Blackened Catfish"? A giant fish with some sort of evil, demonic template on it? Come on, you know you want to. ('you' being a collective term)

Here you go.

BLACKENED CATFISH
Huge Magical Beast (Aquatic)

(Edited to get people to buy the book)

Cathix: Ok, since you won't post what's still available I'll just whip up some art and send it to you and hope you'll have use for it somewhere. (Actually, I'll send you links so you can download them, I don't want to kill your in-box.)

It's not that I won't post it, I'm just juggling layout, administrative, my freelance graphic design clients (the ones that help pay the bills a little) and my 2 year old son. And that boy's heavy!

Promise you'll all get an update list tonight. Swear. Double swear! :p

Before I get a lot farther, anyone think an old school encounter chart for this book would be a good thing or a bad thing..please give me some feedback

Also is there a list of monsters for here so far or not

I always liked encounter charts. I did post this question a few months back for another project and most people said they would like them if they had some thought to them and made sence for the environment. Also, I think that somebody is making some new monsters based on swamp critters that realy exist down there. It would be cool if you could include these in your chart.
 

As of now I am including them as a Other (See creatures from this book) as a preliminary entry. Otherwise making a Modern Side and a Fantasy side is the current layout. Chose the creatures I like, not each and every single one. Looking up some info on what critterss really live there and adding them as well.
 


The New Celebrated Illustration List of the Katrina Charity Project

Okie doke, here's the new list of needed illustrations:

1. halfling and a dwarf insulting each other in a tavern ('doing the dozens')

2. half-elf busty barwench and a dwarven shieldmaiden listening to the argument

3. Blackened Catfish: " With the number of ancient and corrupt graveyards in the Big Easy, it is inevitable that some of that necromantic energy would run off into the rivers. A strong enough concentration of these dark energies can have a warping, tainting influence on local wildlife. When these dark forces warp the native Louisiana Channel Catfish, the result is the Blackened Catfish, a fiendish, carnivorous fish. Blackened Catfish are aggressive and liable to make unprovoked attacks against anything that approaches their territory.

Blackened catfish are enormous predators that can exceed 20 feet in length."

4. fantasy version of the woman in 'Little Queen of Spades' a famous blues song:
Pick a female from any non-human race in the SRD. No celestials, please. She should be sexy and self-assured, and, well...petite.

"Now, she is a little queen of spades
and the men will not let her be
Mmm mmm mmm, she is the little queen of spades
and the men will not let her be
Everytime she makes a spread
hoo, fair brown, cold chill just runs all over me"

5. Ghostly riverboat (as in the famous Mississippi riverboats)

6. 2 Modern npc's:

Jonathan

Jonathan is a nervous man at the best of times. The only place he relaxes in public is at the local bar. It’s not too hard to get him to talk about his work after buying him a round or two, if you’ve convinced him that you “Seem to be an OK guy”. Jonathan is five foot eight, has sandy brown hair and a pale face that always seems to be sweating in Louisiana’s heat. His suits are normally rumpled and it’s not unusual to find him wearing a five o’clock shadow. Jonathan doesn’t have time to worry about anything as trivial as personal appearances anymore. Who can remember how to properly knot a tie or to buy shoe polish when you’ve been hearing crickets chirping your name outside your window every night this past week?

Anne-Marie

Anne-Marie is a six-foot woman with short, sensibly cropped blond hair. She likes sweaters and slacks at home, lab coats when she’s working, and well-tailored business suits everywhere else. She prefers glasses over contacts, since she believes they make her look more professional.

7. PrC: Juggler
"Jugglers are wandering performers who pride themselves on their physical performance skills. They are renowned for their accuracy with thrown objects and uncanny hand-eye coordination. Their acrobatic talents and agility are as useful for infiltrating as they are for entertaining, which makes them a welcome addition to any adventuring party.

Rogues and bards make excellent jugglers, while other classes find the juggler a difficult prestige class to enter. Some fighters and martial classes focused upon thrown weapons may find the juggler a welcome addition to their arsenal.

Jugglers can be encountered as lone performers or in juggling troupes, but no matter when or where they are encountered their juggling feats and flairs are unforgettable. "

8. A new monster - Greck!
Greck (this word is singular and plural) have just enough intelligence to be useful but not enough to be dangerous to their creator. Standing at just over 3 feet in height, the greck appears to be a humanoid covered in a thick layer of moss, barbs, and mud. It has no mouth or ears, but does bear a pair of eyes in the form of sunken black pits lit dimly by a malicious crimson glow.

Again, any race in the SRD is suitable. Send a rough sketch at low res first to siretokkor@yahoo.com, then upon approval send hi res (300dpi) tif or jpg to the same email.
