#From the Book of Vile Darkness.
Ferranifer’s Brooch: This brooch pin of obsidian bears an etched fang. If an undead wears it, it increases her turn resistance by +4. If a living creature dons the pin, they must immediately make a Fortitude save, DC 20, or die (as if subjected to a finger of death spell). If the wearer survives, the brooch has no further effect unless removed and then donned again.
Blackfire
Necromancy [Evil]
Level: Sor/wiz 9
Components: V, S, M
Casting Time: 1 standard action
Range: Medium (100’ + 10’/level)
Target: One living creature
Duration: 4 round
Saving Throw: Fort negates
Spell Resistance: Yes
This spell causes the victim’s very soul to catch fire, burning with a visible black flame of negative energy. An affected victim takes an initial 1d4 points of Constitution drain. Each round she may make another Fortitude save to avoid taking a further 1d4 points of Constitution drain. A victim slain in this fashion cannot be recovered short of a true resurrection spell. Blackfire may be dispelled or suppressed normally, and may also be extinguished with an energetic damaging spell such as fireball or lightning bolt of at least 8 dice in strength (though this will, of course, damage the victim as well). The black flames cannot be smothered by normal means. A cleric who channels positive energy sufficient to turn an undead equal to the blackfire’s caster level will also be able to put it out (but failure puts the cleric at risk of catching fire). A death ward spell on the victim will also put the flame out.
Any creature within 5’ of the black flames must make a Fortitude save of its own or catch fire, just as if initially affected by the spell.
Material component: Ash of victims that died in a normal fire mixed with ashes of a vampire that died in the sunlight.

Note that these conversions are not in line with WotC's requirements for posting a converted module, but are more in line with what's required to help temper the pcs for later challenges from the ELH. I figured there was no harm in posting them this way rather than posting a conversion of the entire module, however.
How has anyone else who has done it converted Moilian zombies? James McMurray, you looking??

Anyone got any pointers on converting Moilians?
Should it be a template or individual monsters?

While I'm not sure how to handle the Moilians, in the conversion I'm working on giving Epic treatment, I think I have a good way to handle the Vestige.
I plan on using a fully advanced, paragon, Caller in Darkness from the Psionics Handbook. It should be close.
Good luck!

Yeah, as soon as I bought the PsiHB, I thought, "Hey, that's the vestige!"
I think that's a good way to go...
Last night the group I'm running had a long battle with waves of reinforcements, and they defeated Ferranifer, the Dim Triad, a balor, a crawling head, Ngise (16th-level pale master) and Drake (16th-level necromancer)... in one fight. Yikes!

d20 System™ Conversion of:
“Return to the Tomb of Horrors”
An ESD copy of the above product can be obtained from: www.svgames.com/dnd1162esd.html
This material was converted by: John P. Gregory (moon_wizard@yahoo.com) and is hosted at EN World in compliance with Wizards of the Coast, Inc. ESD Conversion Agreement v1.0.
Moilian Zombie: CR 5; Medium Undead; HD 9d12; hp 62; Init +4; Spd 20 ft.; AC 14 (-1 Dex, +5 natural); Atk +9 melee (1d8, slam); SA Life drain, wave of frost; SQ Slow death, turn resistance +4, undead traits, vulnerability (fire, acid); AL CE; SV Fort +3, Ref +2, Will +6; Str 21, Dex 8, Con -, Int 3, Wis 10, Cha 1.
Skills and Feats: Improved Initiative, Toughness.
SA – Life Drain (Su): Each round that a living creature is within 20 feet of the zombie, the creature must make a Fortitude save (DC 20) or lose 1d10 hit points. The zombie transfers hit points to itself, up to its maximum (excess hit points are lost). This damage will not heal naturally, but can be healed magically. Anyone slain in this manner has a 15% chance of animating as a Moilian zombie within 24 hours of death.
SA – Wave of Frost (Su): Can project a wave of frost at all opponents within 30 feet, inflicting 2d6 points of damage (Reflex save (DC 13) for half). If a creature fails the first save, they must make a second Fortitude save (DC 15) or be frozen in place by ice for 1d4+1 rounds.
SQ – Slow Death (Ex): A Moilian zombie remains animated for as many days as it has hit points. The zombie loses one hit point per day until it reaches 0, at which point it lapses into quiescence.
SQ –Vulnerability (Ex): Only fire and acid deal damage which cannot be healed through the life drain ability.
