where to from here? planning thread

Fair enough, but I'll have to take the next batch.

I'll go look in on the wild cat.

Oh, before I forget again.

When you upload the Jaguar, Spotted Lion, Jarbo, Dire Otter and Sloth, don't forget the last two need notes at the bottom along the lines of:

Note: Originally appeared as the "Giant Otter".

and

Note: New animal created for the conversion of the "Weresloth" from Dragon #40 .

You don't have to, but feel free. Who am I to object if you want to take on that burden?

I do think it's a good idea to link to the critters in the news post; I was just in a bit of a rush Monday morning when I did the last one. Also, I definitely like putting the ground and giant weresloths into a single weremylodon entry.

I've edited the In Memorium news post to link the creature's names to their CC entries. It's pretty easy, actually.

We'll be doing it for future CC News postings, I expect.

Well the fur has stopped flying over the Wild Cat, so I've finished updating my half of the beasties and added a News Post on the CC home page for them.

I'll be doing that batch of 10 Lycanthropes next weekend, and then it's Freyar turn.

Since I've been throwing my weight around here a bit recently, I'll leave it up to him what converted beasties he'd like to upload and whether he wants me to do any of the work.

On a uploading-related issue, I think it'd be helpful if from now on we added accreditation info to our Working Drafts - you know, the "Originally appeared in Dragon 98" kind of thing.

Partly so we don't have to look a monster up in Echohawk's database to check where it's from while uploading it, but mainly because it'd be nice for those viewing the creatures directly.

Shade used to do that most of the time in homebrews, too. So yes, I agree with that.

I'll start adding it in subsequent Working Drafts, or updates of existing ones.

Hey guys, I am yet again on the road, on assignment from the office, so I have a lot of catching up to do. I'd just like to know at this point what psionic monsters you'll plan to convert in the future that if I have the 2e sources I can already take a look at them. I sorta got midstream with the Albino Wyrm so sorry for the confusion there. I can't wait to get back home so that I can get my claws into these conversions, rather than borrowing the PCs here at our regional office.

I think you'd have been better off posting the question on the Converting Psionic Creatures thread.

Anyhow, I don't think we have any psionic monsters lined up for when we finish the Alkada. Indeed, I'm not sure what (if any) unconverted psionic creatures there are - we don't seem to have a list of them.

If you have any suggestions for any ones that are missing, would you bring them up on Converting Psionic Creatures?

The lycanthropes have been unleashed.

Now it's up to Freyar to pick what next week's CC upload will be.
