[QUOTE="Hackenslash, post: 898741, member: 11770"] [b]Cool adaption of mundane Creatures.[/b] Hello, I think that this "Stirge" would be an excellent choice to add to my high level campaign, but I think that the PC's are not quite ready to handle a creature with such a devastating attack and high AC as my PC's are only 14th level but have a few really powerfull magic items. However, a few more levels and who knows, maybe I will chuck in a few of these Paragon Stirges. I do have a couple of questions, I only have a limited number of books and do not have access to the Epic Level handbook, Does the Paragon Template come from that Book ? Also what is the main difference between the CR and EL of the creature and how does it effect the running of the encounter in your campaign ? For instance would you pit them against a group of 17th -19th level PC's or due to the EL-21 would that be unfair and should they be 20th level+ ? I would like the challenge to be hard but not deadly as I plan on taking the PC's thru a few epic levels. Excellent Critters by the way and thanks for the inspiration, I would have never of thought of using low level monsters in this way. Cheers for any forth coming advice or suggestions.:D [/QUOTE]
