Ethereal: Good only mist-like apparitions who are permanently translucent(pass door) and flying. Weak and slow, but resistant to physical attack. They'd be much like the frightful fiend in that defeating them means dealing many blows(not necessarily hard ones) and/or convincing yourself they don't exist. Str:15 Int:23 Wis:23 Dex:15 Con:20 Chr:25 Classes: Transmuter, Invoker, Bard, Warrior, Thief, Conjurer -------------------------------------------- Mossman(incredibly lame name I know) A natural creature formed from leaves, bark, dirt and so forth. Permanent acute vision. Doesn't eat, but must have an almost constant intake of water to avoid drying out and becoming brittle. Vulnerable to hot and cold attacks(evaporation or freezing of the water necessary to keep them together). Any align, but must be non-lawful. Fairly strong and healthy, and wise due to their extended lives(trees could be very wise indeed). Str:20 Int:16 Wis:23 Dex:15 Con:24 Chr:18 Classes: Warrior, Ranger, Druid, Shaman, Healer. ------------------------------------------- Serpent: Snake-like being that has no legs or feet(can't wear leggings or boots). Invulnerable to tripping and those assassin kicks that attack the legs. Extremely weak, but dexterous...not too bright. Permanent water-breathing, and upscale infravision that allows them to sense the presence of anything that gives of heat(ie can tell when somebody is camouflaged, invis, hidden, duo). Easy to blind through the use of extreme heat or light sources. Neutral or evil only. Str:15 Int:17 Wis:18 Dex:25 Con:22 Chr:17
Classes:Thief, Warrior, Shaman, Ranger.
