Hello!
I was looking to do a little bit of reworking to Ariadnah in the final battle by making her a Witch (Invoker?)/Evangelist of Shub-Niggurath; but unfortunately there are no boons or obediences for the Black Goat of the Woods!
Other than granting her an extra level to keep her at CL 16 (Evangelist loses a level); what can I do for Boon abilities for Shub-Niggurath? Does anyone have anything created (or anything 3P) for this Deity?
Some sort of nasty Aberrant Beast Shape? Corrupting plant aura? All around vision from the massive amount of eyes/spectral goat heads that can manifest? 1/Day summons of Dark Young (ouch)? Free tentacle attacks with Blood Drain? The ability to cast a single spell on the target of a successful natural attack?
Give me some ideas! I would like giving her some unholy strength that doesn't really match her weak-looking form, but y'know, spells are generally better than attacking and its a shame because she has that Lich touch to work with.
Also I noticed she doesn't have Quicken Spell, does anyone have experience with adding this to her list? She would be 17th level in this version and would have an extra feat, would it be too much? I don't feel like a 17th level caster without Quicken is wise or ancient or scary.
The first boon always appears to be a 1st lvl spell 3/D, a 2nd lvl spell 2/D, or a 3rd lvl spell 1/D.
the second boon could be some kind of shape shifting ability, maybe like the alchemists mutagen, or maybe some kind of summon. if you want it to be more spell friendly, you could give her spell combat, or the spell critical ability from EK, although those aren't nearly a flavorful.
1/D Dark young Summon seems about right for the 3rd boon though
For comparison, Lamashtus 2nd and 3rd boons are to give your eidolon frightful presence(or give you summon monster V 1/D) and Summon a Baragara 1/D
