Stat Block Notation in Dungeon, Annotation help ?


Dungeon Magazine General Discussion


Alright, I've had it..WHAT is the breakdown for usage of special characters in annotation to critters in statistic blocks ?

For instance, Issue #128, November, The Champion's Belt....Page 48...

Stat Block for Auric....is the notation of a "B" ..seems to be limited to feats...and, I'd believe is a bonus feat indicator...however, under his combat gear...all potions are marked with an asterisk..

Khellek...similiar notations for feats...but, spells and magical items are noted with asterisks as well...

Paizo...would you please give an explanation to your annotation convention ?

Thanks

"B" is in fact a bonus feat.

I don't have that issue right in front of me, but I think the asterisk is used to indicate spells or items that are already used. And if that's the case it says so either just under the stat block or just above it.


Correct.

"B" indicates a fighter bonus feat.

"*" indicates the potions and spells that are applied to an NPC as battle begins. Since each gladiator team buffs themselves up before battle it's important to know. This is also why the stalling tactics of the management is so friggin' evil.
