What do you think of Modrons?

[Croesus]

...bugs.

Now you've got me thinking of Modrons as Replicators from SG1 (pre-human-form). Nasty...

And I heard the purpose of the new dark modrons are to flip out and kill people.

Shhh! You'll give away the secret to my entire Epic Planescape Campaign.

I dislike them. They are responsible for my pooh-poohing Planescape when it came out, and now I regret not overlooking that one bit of stupidity and enjoying the rest of it.

I like the original concept of them as beings like living geometric forms, not so much the bio-mechanical stuff they came up with for Planescape (though the flavor of them in Planescape was otherwise good).

The idea Baron Opal expressed in another thread about making them living crystalline forms with "limbs" made of static discharges, like the probe in Star Trek I, was so cool I'm immediately yoinking it and considering ways to directly use them in my games now (they've showed up before in indirect ways in my campaign setting).

Should they be constructs or outsiders?

 

[Plane Sailing]

I love them with all my heart and body, including my pee pee.

GoooooOOOOOOO, MODRONS!

Sure you're not just still overcompensating because your players walked away from the great modron march?

I like how people, once again, grate on the modrons looks and the other side of the fence calling them "cute". /sarcasm

Die, stupid DiTerlizzi. Die. Die. Die.

I've totally dug these guys since I first saw them in the 1st edition MM II.

In my current Planescape campaign there is a major Exiled Modron NPC (barkeep) that the players love.

Should they be constructs or outsiders?

They were Outsiders in 3.0, but now (in 3.5) they are Constructs with the Living Construct subtype.

Die, stupid DiTerlizzi. Die. Die. Die.

I thought he and Brom were the best artists to happen for 2nd edition.
