[QUOTE="zinderel, post: 2410278, member: 34234"] I have to say, I'm very much digging these conversions. I actually recently started playing Magic, and loved the concept of the Slivers. I'm also a DnD player, and ran a game with Slivers as a recurring threat. I started looking for other conversions, and found these and literally "woot"-ed. So, what other Slivers will we be seeing? I've noticed that we have yet to see the [size=2]Brood Sliver, Essence Sliver, Hibernation Sliver, Magma Sliver, Shifting Sliver, Sliver Overlord, Sliver Queen, Spectral Sliver, Synapse Sliver, Toxin Sliver and Ward Sliver[/size] [size=2]Any plans for these? I know we've got the Queen and the Toxin and the Overlord, as I've seen them discussed already, but what about the others?[/size] [size=2]For the Brood Sliver, I could see something like the Slaadi egg planting ability, where the Brood Sliver implants the victim with an egg that hatches as a Proto-Sliver.[/size] [size=2]Essence Sliver could give, say, Regeneration 3, which is a good ability to have even if you already have Fast Healing.[/size] [size=2]Shifting Sliver could give Waterbreathing and a Swim speed.[/size] Magma Sliver could give a fire enhancement to attacks. Ward Slivers would grant some kind of elemental resistances. Perhaps with this type, there could actually be a type of Ward Sliver for each Element. Spectral Sliver would likely be another undead Sliver type, Incorporeal though as opposed to the Crypt Sliver. The Hibernation Sliver is likely already covered in a way by having all slivers Hibernate to 'evolve', right? Synapse Slivers....this one's a hard one...maybe their attacks deal Intelligence damage, via some kind of poison secretion? [size=2]Anyhow, just my thoughts and suggestions, if you haven't already thought of 'em, and again, kudos for the work so far! [/size] [/QUOTE]
