[QUOTE="Shade, post: 4890176, member: 287"] bykov - Definitely stick around. Your contributions have already improved these guys greatly. I wouldn't have thought of including Knowledgeable (which is a perfect fit for aboleths) had you not entered the discussion. In thinking a bit more about this, I can live with a slightly higher Int than Cha (as long as Cha remains as high or higher than it is now), and I think the mental stats could use a boost. Int scores of various aboleths and comparable creatures: 2e Aboleth: High (13-14) Greater Aboleth: Exceptional (15-16) compare to base red dragon Noble Aboleth: Genius (17-18) compare to base gold dragon, mind flayer Ruler Aboleth: Supra-genius (19-20) compare to lammasu, titan Grand Aboleth: Godlike (21+) compare to titan, elder orb beholder, Asmodeus Hive Mother beholder: Int 21, Wis 17, Cha 25 Titan: Int 21, Wis 28, Cha 24 Lammasu: Int 16, Wis 17, Cha 14 Golden Protector Lammasu: Int 18, Wis 20, Cha 18 Mind Flayer: Int 19, Wis 17, Cha 17 Asmodeus: Int 28, Wis 32, Cha 30/Int 30, Wis 34, Cha 30 Great Wyrm Gold Dragon: Int 32, Wis 33, Cha 32 Great Wyrm Red Dragon: Int 26, Wis 27, Cha 26 So maybe... Greater Aboleth: Int 21, Wis 19, Cha 19 Noble Aboleth: Int 25, Wis 23, Cha 23 Ruler Aboleth: Int 29, Wis 27, Cha 27 Grand Aboleth: Int 33, Wis 31, Cha 31 Does that work for everyone? [/QUOTE]
