Special Conversion Thread: Finishing off the fey

Always chaotic, often or usually evil is good.

Since they're only 5HD, let's stick to "good or piercing" for DR. It's an unusual combination, but I think it's ok.

SR=CR +8 is ok

3/day charm is good, and so are the suggested languages.

 

[demiurge1138]

All of that sounds good!

Updated.

Skills: 7 at 8 ranks
Rakshasa have Bluff, Concentration, Disguise, Listen, Move Silently, Perform (oratory), Sense Motive, Spellcraft, Spot

Feats: 2
Rakshasa have Alertness, Combat Casting, Dodge

 

[freyar]

Drop Spellcraft and Perform from the Rakshasa list, I think.

Maybe Alertness and Skill Focus (Disguise)?

I don't mind Chaotic Evil, they don't have to be murderous to be malevolent.

Drop Spellcraft and Perform from the Rakshasa list, I think.

I agree on the skills.

Maybe Alertness and Skill Focus (Disguise)?

Isn't their an OGL feat which gives a +2 on Bluff and Disguise? Such a feat would seem appropriate.

 

[freyar]

I don't see such a feat in the SRD, and we generally limit ourselves to core for feats. But I do agree with you.

The line about scaring fish from nets, and their spookier SLAs, make me think they should get Intimidate as a class skill. Maybe instead of Sense Motive, since they're easy to fool?

I also got the impression that their disguises weren't always the greatest, so I'd rather not give them Skill Focus (disguise). Perhaps Persuasive and Weapon Finesse or Improved Initiative?

That's fair enough. I actually got the impression that their behavior when disguised wasn't right (is that Bluff? but it seems like an Int problem). Maybe Alertness and Weapon Finesse.

That makes sense, so I'll go along with it.

Persuasive suits them methinks. They just don't seem that combat oriented to me, so I don't fancy Finesse.

How about Spell Focus to increase their spell DCs? Either Necromancy to boost their scare or Enchantment to boost their charm person?

 

[freyar]

I didn't think Spell Focus helped out SLAs any...
