[QUOTE="Wik, post: 3072843, member: 40177"] Well, I thought about it, and I thought about it some more. My group knows me pretty well, and to be quite honest, they'll be EXPECTING a zombie underwater. So, instead, I'm just going to put a corpse down there, his foot wedged a rock. It'll be floating around, attracting a crowd of fish. The great thing is, it'll keep the whole group on edge, without it actually being a fight (if the group loses their fear of this "zombie" I might have it grab one of the PCs as they swim by, but make it's grapple check so low that the PCs can escape easily, just to make the encounter a tad more climactic. Thanks for the info, guys - I actually realized I need to read (and re-read) the rules on Improved Grab and Grapples before I start running this game. I mean, the Rhagodessa's, the Zombies, hell, even the crabs have improved grab. So, I figure I need to get the rules for the attack down pat. [/QUOTE]
