Special Conversion Thread: Will o' wisps

[Shade]

Yeah, that sounds better.

Updated.

Skills: 4 at 9 ranks
Wisp has Bluff, Listen, Search, Spot. Bluff makes little sense for these fellows, so probably replace that with Diplomacy. I could see adding Sense Motive in as well, maybe shaving a few ranks off the rest.

Feats: Weapon Finesse (B), 3 more
Wisp has Alertness, Blind-Fight, Dodge, Improved Initiative. Since these fellows tend to shun combat, I could see retaining Alertness and/or Dodge, and going with Quicken SLA on either or both of its SLAs.

Advancement: 7–18 HD (Small)?

Diplomacy 8, Listen 7, Search 7, Sense Motive 7, Spot 7?

If we want to use Quicken SLA (which is a nice idea), we need to bump the CL a bit. I'm not opposed to that, actually. I don't think it increases their power a whole lot, and, like I said, they're a little low on juice anyway.

Advancement sounds fine. Wait, weren't these going to be Tiny?

 

[Shade]

Hmmm...I suppose they should be Tiny!

Good point on Quicken...I think I was looking at the Empower chart. Boosting to CL 10th would allow them to quicken color spray, which is probably fine. That would allow them to use both SLAs in a single round.

Your skill ranks look good.

 

[freyar]

How about CL 10, Quicken SLA (color spray), and Ability Focus (hypnotic pattern)?

Let's keep advancement as you have it but just change Small to Tiny.

 

[Shade]

That works for me. Any objections?

None here.

Updated.

The will o’ dawn can sense good creatures in pain or trouble and will attempt to aid them If at all possible.

Detect good at will? Maybe detect evil as well, to help warn others of danger?

 

[freyar]

Good idea, agreed to both!

CR 3? or perhaps 4?

 

[demiurge1138]

4, I think. It can barely do any damage, but like all wisps, it's a hell of a time trying to actually hurt the thing.
