Special Conversion Thread: Moldvay's Undead

[freyar]

Just strip off some question marks (organization line, for ex).

CR 8 or 9?

14-20HD (Medium) and by character class?

OK, so we're agreed on sticking with wights. Now, should they be free-willed or under the vryk's control?

My preference is putting them under the greater vyrkolakas's control, but making them free-willed doesn't bother me.

Well I guess Challenge Rating 9, since they're pretty nasty with all that energy draining. (And my preferred "nigh-immortal" version with more potent rejuvenation would likely be an even higher CR)

I'd say Advancement by Hit Dice, I also like the idea that especially powerful greater vrylokalas become bigger, like advanced mummies do.

14-20HD (Medium); 21-26 HD (Large) ?

 

[freyar]

That advancement is reasonable, sure!

 

[demiurge1138]

Agreed to CR 9 and the advancement.

Updated.

All done?

 

[freyar]

I'm happy with it.

Edit: In fact, we actually addressed that very conversion upthread.

It must've just missed being removed from one of the unconverted lists.
