Stats for Iuz the Evil in 3.5 ?

[Melkor]

One of my players mentioned that he recalled an article in Dungeon or Dragon magazine which statted out Greyhawk's Iuz in 3.5 ?

Does anyone here know if this is correct, and if so, what issue ?

Thanks.

There is a thread on here with his stats.

Edit: Found it.

Thanks JustaPlaya!

So what would the Challenge Rating for Iuz be as listed in the 3.5 stats in that link ?

They didn't put CR ratings on Deities in 3.x. My recomendation would be to replace some feats with epic feats first off since that book wasn't utilized. I would place him anywhere from 40-45. It's hard to say how much the SDAs would come in. If you decide to put some epic level feats you might want to give him on more level of cleric so he can cast epic spells.

A 3.5-ified version of Iuz's stats (this is not official and a pretty serious departure from the Dragon 294 version) can be found here:

That attempts to rationalize the SDAs a bit more into the CR system, and gives Iuz a CR of 35, which I think is right for that build.

A letter in the latest Dungeon asks why a CR wasn't given for Kyuss. James Jacobs suggests that the big K should have a CR something like 7 higher than the PCs, or roughly CR 28. (I'm on the road and that's from memory, so someone with ready access to that issue should verify.) My best guess would put Iuz at CR 30 or higher.

Ah; my bad. Garnfellow did update the stats to 3.5; good job!

I'd place that Iuz at CR 30. Comparing it with, say, the atropal, it's got some strengths but corresponding weaknesses.
