I'm leaning toward monster, but I'd start with Small or even Tiny and cover Medium, etc, through advancement.

That sounds like a good approach!

If Medium is 8HD, do we want to start with Tiny at something like 2 or 3 HD or Small at 4 to 6 HD?

 

[demiurge1138]

Let's start with Small and 4 HD. We should also do the write-up for a Medium sized version ourselves.

Sounds good. Use original stats for Medium version, and downsize for Small?

 

[freyar]

Ok, Small at 4HD and Medium at 8HD.

Original Medium scores are Str 12, Dex 5, Con 20, Int 5, Wis 5, Cha 0. How do we want to modify those? The 1d12 flailing strike damage suggests greater Str to me, and they don't sound particularly smart, but I don't have much other opinion.

 

[demiurge1138]

I'd say increase Str and Dex a bit, but not too much. The damage from the slam could be due to its being filled with sharp metal filaments, not due to inherent Str. A character with a Str of 12 can still wield a greataxe, after all.

 

[freyar]

True. 2 pts each?

 

[demiurge1138]

I think so. Damage for the slams on the Small version? d10? 2d4?

 

[freyar]

The greataxe downsizes from 1d12 to 1d10, so I suggest we go with the d10 even if 2d4 makes more sense.
