Special Conversion Thread: Finishing off giants and their kin

[Shade]

Those feats work for me.

For skills, how about: Bluff 5, Intimidate 3, Listen 3, Move Silently 4, Spot 3? Hide is probably pointless without a racial bonus (which doesn't make much sense with their immense bulk).

Advancement: By HD, by character class, or both?

Skills and feats look good.

I'm a bit confused. Shouldn't the claw attack bonus be +10=+4 BAB +6 Str?

Um. I've just noticed that the cave lords have actually already been updated to 3.5 in the Bestiary of Krynn, Revised. I do apologise for not noticing this earlier -- the BoK version treats them a large humanoids, rather than giants, which is why I missed them

No biggee. I have no problem doing our own version.

-1 Large size penalty.

Goblin giants can live to be x years old.

A goblin giant's bag usually contains ...

Oops, forgot that for a sec!

Standard giants are just by character class, so we can stick with that.

150 years? Probably sufficiently long compared to standard gobbos...

kobold bones, underground herbs, and other possessions?

Here's the only reason I was considering HD advancement as well:

"A typical cave lord is 9 to 10 feet tall and obscenely obese, weighing nearly a ton. Some grow to heights of 12 feet or more."

As characters...

Favored Class: Rogue?

Same deity/domains as goblins? ("Goblin clerics worship Maglubiyet. A goblin cleric has access to two of the following domains: Chaos, Evil, or Trickery.")

 

[freyar]

Let's see. I'm willing to reconsider advancement. Maybe by character class or 7-8HD (Large), 9-10 HD (Huge).

I like the rest, I think. I could also see favored class being fighter, your choice.

 

[demiurge1138]

I think we should allow for both types of advancement.

Updated.

All done?
