Shameless bump.

 

[Rechan]

Storm Dragon (Draconomicon) Lvl 17 (Fair enough fit)
Old Fang Dragon (Draconomicon) 15; don't bother with all the age categories, just do one!
Hive Mother (Lords of Madness) 16
Overseer (Lords of Madness) 15

Humm, I'll look at these. I've always been a little bit intimidated by designing dragons (at least, post-1e)... I'll give these some serious thought, along with a couple of other dragon types (cloud dragon, I'm lookin' at you).

Hive Mother (Lords of Madness) 16
Overseer (Lords of Madness) 15

Oh HELL yeah- although, since a beholder eye tyrant is level 19, these guys prolly need level bumps.

Added the amphisbaena (2-headed snake) to my list.

I can see the potential for two or three versions of it, actually...

 

[the Jester]

Ooh, came up with some more:

Excruciator
Korred
Flailing Dreadnaught
Black Pudding
Marid

Edit: On second thought I need to reconsider the marid. Efreeti start at 22nd in 4e, after all.

One last bump- I'm almost done with level 15 conversions already! Which means I'm almost half done!

Even though each monster is taking longer at higher levels, there are less per level, so I think that 'half done' assessment is probably pretty close.
