Special Conversion Thread: Microscopic Monsters

Yes, I like that last version. Is that almost it for the swarm?

I'll stick it in the Working Draft...

I added a racial bonus to the Clinging Swarm DC, otherwise it has a pathetic DC 9 due to its low Dexterity.

 

[freyar]

Instead of the racial bonus, why not make it Con-based? They're a bit sticky, right? Con would make sense if that's the source of the clinging.

Good idea, that'll put the DC up to 16.

Updating Working Draft.

What next?

I think most of the red question marks can go away. Those CRs look appropriate.

We'll need names for the groups. Does a term exist for a collective of slime?

A coagulation?

 

[freyar]

A coagulation?

Sounds good to me!

 

[Cleon]

Good!

So, how many in a coagulation?

2-200?

 

[freyar]

I guess 200 could work, but that's getting unwieldy enough a smart DM would shift over to the swarm version. Why not 3-30 like we already have there?

Well the original monster had a #Appearing of 30-600, so I wanted a pretty wide range. Not all the way to 30d20, but a bit more that we've got!

How about 3-60 or, better yet, 2-60. It'll give my d30s some exercise.
