[QUOTE="Azul, post: 889925, member: 11779"] Here's the list used in my campaign. Note: We don't use alignment and have replaced it with a concept we call taint. Normal creatures are untainted. Some of the more bizarre creatures (especially evil and weirder neutral extraplanar types) are tainted (the "neutral" of the taint scale). Anything that looks like it would fit right in a Call of Cthulhu game is foul (the opposite of untainted) - usually aberrations and really warped stuff. This scale is used in our campaign to determine summoning a certain creature will contaminate the summoner (a notion specific to our game world). BTW, I developed my scale by looking over the typical CRs of most critters that get summoned up, producing a ball-park range from that and then combing the books for critters. Weak creatures with unusually strong powers got bumped up or were simply not added. Oh, and our setting has a strong middle-eastern flavour to it so genies, rocs and stuff like dragon turtles turn up. 1st level CR 1/3+strong ability or CR 1/2 Corollax [MM2] Dire Rat Dog Jermalaine (tainted) [MM2] Moonrat [MM2] Neogi, spawn (foul) [MM2] Twig Blight (tainted) [MM2] 2nd level CR1/2+strong ability or CR1 Bariaur [MotP] Devil, Lemure (tainted) Eagle Felldrake, crested [MM2] Formian, worker (tainted) Ixitxachitl, average (foul) [MM2] Shark, medium-size Stirge (foul) Wolf 3rd level CR1+strong ability or CR2 Azer Bladeling (tainted) Choaker (foul) Demon, Dretch (tainted) Demon, Mane (tainted) [BoVD] Elemental, small Felldrake, spitting [MM2] Hippogryph Kython, Broodling (foul) [BoVD] Paraelemental, small [MotP] Salamander, flamebrother Skum (foul) Thri-Kreen (foul) [MM2] Thoqqua Triton 4th level CR3 +/-1 Arrowhawk, juvenile Demon, Rutterkin (tainted) [BoVD] Devil, Imp (tainted) Ethereal Filcher Ethereal Marauder Fihyr (foul) [MM2] Hellhound (tainted) Howler (tainted) Ixitxachitl, vampiric (foul) [MM2] Magmin Pegasus Phase Wasp [MM2] Stone Spike [MM2] Tojanida, small Unicorn Vargouille Xorn, small 5th level CR4 +/-1 Archerai (tainted) Arrowhawk, adult Devil, Spinagon (tainted) [MotP] Displacer Beast (foul) Elemental, medium-size Energon, Xag-Ya [MotP] Energon, Xeg-Yi [MotP] Ephemera, Dusk Beast [MotP] Felldrake, Horned [MM2] Formian, warrior Genie, Janni Grell (foul) [MM2] Griffon Hydra, 5-headed Kython, Juvenile (foul) [BoVD] Mephit, any Minotaur Neogi, adult (foul) [MM2] Paraelemental, medium-size [MotP] Quasit (tainted) Salamander, average Shadow Mastiff Tojanida, medium-size Vaath (foul) [BoVD] Yeth Hound (tainted) 6th level CR6 +/-1 Belker Chaos Beast (foul) Cloaker (foul) Demon, Bar-lgura (tainted) [BoVD] Demon, Uridezu (tainted) [MotP] Devil, Barbazu (tainted) Devil, Erinyes (tainted) Devil, Hellcat (tainted) Elemental, large Genie, Djinni Gibbering Mouther (foul) Hydra, 6-headed Kython, Adult (foul) [BoVD] Kyton (tainted) Manticore Marrash (tainted) [MM2] Paraelemental, large [MotP] Phase Spider Psurlon, average (foul) [MM2] Rast Slaad, Red (tainted) Sphinx, Hieracosphinx Wyste (foul) [MM2] Xorn, medium-size 7th level CR7 +/- 1 Aboleth (foul) Arrowhawk, elder Athatch (foul) Chuul (foul) Demon, Armanite (tainted) [MotP] Demon, Babau (tainted) [BoVD] Demon, Bebilith (tainted) Devil, Hamatula (tainted) Devil, Kocrachon (tainted) [BoVD] Devil, Osyluth (tainted) Dragonne Elemental, huge Frost Salamander [MM2] Genie, Dao [MotP] – cannot grant limited wish Hook Horror (foul) [MM2] Hydra, 7-headed Invisible Stalker Kopru (foul) [MM2] Kython, Impaler (foul) [BoVD] Paraelemental, huge [MotP] Ravid – alone Slaad, Blue (tainted) Sphinx, Criosphinx Tojanida, large Umber Hulk (foul) Will-O’-Wisp (foul) Wyvern Yugoloth, Mezzoloth (tainted) [MotP] 8th level CR9 +/- 1 Barghest (foul) Darktentacles (foul) [MM2] Demon, Shadow Demon (tainted) [BoVD] Demon, Succubus Devil, Cornugon Dune Stalker (tainted) [MM2] Elemental, greater Formian, taskmaster (tainted) Genie, Efreet [MotP] – cannot grant wish Genie, Marid [MotP] – cannot grant limited wish Hydra, 8-headed Inevitable, Zelekhut [MotP] Kython, Slaymaster (foul) [BoVD] Lillend Mind Flayer (foul) Nethersight Mastiff [MM2] Paraelemental, greater [MotP] Psurlon, elder (foul) [MM2] Rogue Eidolon (foul) [MM2] Salamander, noble Slaad, Green (tainted) Sphinx, Androsphinx Sphinx, Gynosphinx Vilewight (foul) [BoVD] 9th level CR11 +/- 2 Avolakia (foul) [MM2] Barghest, greater (foul) Beholder (foul) Demon, Vrock (tainted) Demon, Chasme (tainted) [BoVD] Devil, Narzugon (tainted) [MotP] Devil, Malebranche (tainted) Dragon Turtle Elemental, elder Ethereal Slayer [MM2] Hydra, 9-headed Kython, Slaughterking (foul) [BoVD] Leechwalker (foul) [MM2] Mooncalf (foul) [MM2] Night Hag (tainted) Paraelemental, elder [MotP] Rakshasa (tainted) Roc Slaad, Grey (tainted) Xill (foul) Yrthak (foul) Yugoloth, Nycaloth (tainted) [MotP] Yugoloth, Yagnoloth (tainted) [MM2] [/QUOTE]
