Orcus Revised...

[jasamcarl]

I was considering convertion Orcus as statted in the BoVD to 3.5. A quick glance has revealed DR and Feats as an area that might need work. I was thinking DR 15/Epic and Good and Cold Steel. As for feats, I notice that he is a few short, so I was considering adding Quicken Spell-Like Ability (Something).

Any clue as to what that something should be or the other additional feats for that matter? And is there anything else that requires my attention to bring him up to 3.5 compliance?

I would appreciate any input.

Remember the skill points too! And that most resistances have been dropped, but that the HD for most fiends has gone up.

Rather than giving him the spellcasting ability of a 13th(?) level Necromancer, why not just give him 13 levels of Necromancer?

Add Spell Focus (Necromancy) and Greater Spell Focus (Necromancy).

I don't know about more hd. He has 37 as is and when one compares his actual hp to similar revised creatures from the ELH, they are pretty descent for a CR 28 creature and the other major element of hd, BAB, isn't really his forte, but rather his spells and spell-like abilities as well as the Wand of Orcus. I will lower his resistances though, and spellfocus would atleast look appropriate in his stat block.
