These conversion guides are fantastic, as I love the True20 system for its simplicity, speed, and the fact that is doesn't rely on magic items to make effective characters (which I find to be the main crutch of D&D). If you have not checked out Green Ronin's True20 RPG game, have a look, you may be pleasantly surprised.

So far so good! Only one minor error (maybe) I can find, and that is Tsuto Kaijitsu's unarmed strike damage should be +2, not +1, as he has the improved strike feat. Found it interesting to see that you also stacked Erylium's adept and racial levels so that she could use the summoning powers.

You can port a lot, if not most d20 stuff to True20 with minimal difficulty, but it's always nice to have it done for you, and more importantly, done well. Great work. :)

Its a very minor point, but Seoni is shown as "female human a1"; presumably that should be "adept 1". As others have said, great work.

DogBone They are fairly self-explanatory, apart from the toughness save replacing hit points and some creatures having a parry score as well as a defence score. However, they are unzipped pdfs, they are free, and they are about a dozen pages long so download very quickly. Why not download one of them and see for yourself.
