Hi all
The last weeks I have been working on the monsters from HTBM to adapt them to my PCs level. here you have the statblocks, in case someone finds them useful. If you find any errors please tell me and I'll fix them. One warning: I use +4, +4, +4, +2, +0, +0 instead of the standard elite array.
I also have some questions regarding monsters and NPCs advancement, I hope you can help me:
- Olangru's SR: I'm not sure if it goes up according to the new HD or CR. I have used HD, but there's a huge argument going on the wizards boards about this.
- Olangru's caster level for spell-like abilities: Do you increase it by one for every hit dice added? That's the way I do it but, again, I have seen one thread on the wizards boards that left me undecided.
- Lemorian golem: Even if you increase its size, the rot damage stays the same. Am I right?
- Spirit naga: In the monster description says that it casts spells as a 7th Lvl sorcerer. When advancing it, Do you increase its spells per day as if it have gained a new level of sorcerer? I think the answer is no.
NPC's:
- Vanthus: Mr Jacobs, you said that he could benefit from some number crunching. I will need to give him 2 or 3 levels so, do you have any suggestions?
- Lavinia: 3 of my 6 PC's are martial adepts. Do you think lavinia could take some levels in warblade, focusing on diamond mind (rapier is favored weapon, very stylish) and white raven (she is very diplomatic)? They could teach her the maneuvers (they have both disciplines) and it combines well with swashbuckler. Also, it opens some nice RP opportunities.
