Special Conversion Thread: Angels (and possibly other heavenly creatures)

[demiurge1138]

Bastard sword and shield I like. I've definitely seen angels depicted with shield before (usually fighting dragons or Satan), but never in D&D.

Updated.

Shall we make the shield magical?

Skills: 11 at 17 ranks
Planetar has Concentration, Craft or Knowledge (any four), Diplomacy, Escape Artist, Hide, Intimidate, Listen, Move Silently, Sense Motive, Search, Spot

Feats: Exotic Weapon Proficiency (bastard sword)(B), 5 more
Planetar has Blind-Fight, Cleave, Improved Initiative, Improved Sunder, Power Attack
Gotta retain Power Attack (with a name like that)! Maybe Improved Shield Bash in place of Blind-Fight?

 

[demiurge1138]

Shield should totally be magical. +2 medium fortification?

Sounds good!

A power is 12 feet tall and weighs about x pounds. (Solars and planetars are 9 feet, 500 pounds)

Cleave, Great Cleave, Monkey Grip (Can we use those?), Improved Shield Bash, Improved Sunder

 

[Shade]

Nope, can't use Monkey Grip (without additional explanation), but we don't really need it, since Exotic WP (bastard sword)(B) allows it to wield its blade one-handed.

 

[demiurge1138]

Let's replace Improved Shield bash with Empower SLA (holy smite).

Looking good!

Want to do anything with this? "The powers are divided into six groups: Logic, Creativity, Strength, Mercy, Legislation and Punishment." If they got spellcasting, I'd say this sounds like domains. Hrmph.

 

[Leopold]

Are there any clerical domains associatd with those? I'd hate to go round and round creating domains for these beasts.

 

[Shade]

Since they lack spellcasting, I think a mention in flavor text should suffice.

Do the suggested skills appeal?
