J3: Crucible of Chaos conversion

[visage]

I know most of the monsters from the Game Mastery are available but I was wondering if anyone converted the three sorcerers and zothians to actual Pathfinder rules. I am hoping someone else has done so, I am willing to do it, but it would make my DMing job easier if someone else has and is willing to share.

Hi Visage. Did you ever convert those sorcerers? Thanks!

One question I have is what are you going to do with the one who is a nightmare creature. IIRC, the nightmare creature in Pathfinder is an aberration or outsider, but the one in Crucible of Chaos is undead.

I looked up the original Nightmare Creature template from Advanced Bestiary because I was curious about this too. The original Nightmare Creature template doesn't change the creature's type unless it's an outsider (neither does the one from Bestiary 4), but it does have a sidebar note on switching it to an undead creature.

To do the change, basically the creature type changes to Undead (with all associated benefits/penalties), the Regeneration 5 changes to Fast Healing 5, and it loses the Feign Death ability.
