I thought I'd try my hand at monster making. They don't have a whole lot of abilities that aren't listed in the SRD, though, and I have multiple versions of some of them. I also spoilered them all, since there are so many.

Pi Elementals are physical representations of that famous constant number that never ends (or at least doesn’t seem to). They’re still called elementals, even though they’re technically not associated with any element.

Pi Elementals speak Common and a number of other languages equal to their Int modifier.

Pi Elementals rarely actually use their flight in any way other than hovering a few feet off the ground.

Pi Elementals tend to fight defensively, preferring to either be as far away as possible from opponents or have one of its shield effects up before using its offensive abilities. It only intentionally advances toward an opponent enough to use its physical attacks if the opponent seems like it has a weak will and there aren’t any other enemies nearby, though it may use them on other opponents that get too close. If it’s being overpowered, a Normal or Greater Pi Elemental may activate Invisibility Sphere and try to escape. A Greater Pi Elemental may also use Teleportation Circle to escape, though it’s not above using the Teleportation Circle as a trap.

Combat
Spell-Like Abilities (Lesser) (Sp): At Will—Flaming Sphere (DC 18). A Lesser Pi Elemental's caster level is equal to its hit dice. Save DCs are Int-based.

Spell-Like Abilities (Normal) (Sp): At Will—Flaming Sphere (DC 18), Invisibility Sphere, Lesser Globe of Invulnerability; 3/day— Freezing Sphere (DC 22), Globe of Invulnerability, Resilient Sphere (DC 20); 1/day—Circle of Death (DC 20). The Pi Elemental’s caster level is equal to its hit dice. Save DCs are Int-based.

Spell-Like Abilities (Greater) (Sp): Spell-Like Abilities (Sp): At Will—Flaming Sphere (DC 21), Freezing Sphere (DC 25), Globe of Invulnerability, Invisibility Sphere, Lesser Globe of Invulnerability; 5/day—Resilient Sphere (DC 23); 3/day—Circle of Death (DC 23), Telekinetic Sphere (DC 27); 1/day—Prismatic Sphere (DC 28), Teleportation Circle. The Greater Pi Elemental’s caster level is equal to its hit dice. Save DCs are Int-based.

Paralysis (Su): Whenever a Pi Elemental attacks, it implants the full length of pi into the opponent’s mind. The opponent must make a Will saving throw with the DC mentioned in that Pi Elemental's monster entry or it overwhelms their mind, effectively paralyzing them. Paralyzed creatures cannot move, speak, or take any physical actions. The creature is rooted to the spot, frozen and helpless. Unlike hold person and similar effects, a paralysis effect does not allow a new save each round. A winged creature flying in the air at the time that it is paralyzed cannot flap its wings and falls. A swimmer can't swim and may drown.

Quicken Round Spell (Sp): For a total of three times a day, a Greater Pi Elemental may quicken any spell that it knows, as long as the spell has “sphere” or “globe” in its name and the Greater Pi Elemental has a caster level high enough to quicken it. This functions as the “Quicken Spell-Like Ability” feat.

This is an insect whose right arm is ridiculously huge for whatever reason. In fact, the right arm is so huge that it has arms of its own. The rest of its body isn’t anywhere near the ground, so it has to do almost everything with the right arm.

If it begins its turn with an opponent in reach, it will attempt a full attack. If it is being overpowered by a nearby opponent, it will use a standard attack to push them and then get as far away as possible while using its Scorching Rays on the opponent if they pursue. If a nearby opponent seems weak and is in range of its large arm, it will either pull them closer and then do a full attack or try to use Improved Grab on them. If there are multiple opponents in range and none of them are in melee range, it will usually use its Scorching Rays on them but may instead choose to single out one of them for physical attacks. If nothing is in range, it will walk toward the nearest opponent and either pull it closer or use its Scorching Rays if possible.

Combat
Spell-Like Abilities (Sp): At Will—Scorching Ray. The Fidlia’s caster level is equal to its hit dice. The Fidlia uses its Constitution modifier instead of its Dexterity modifier for its ranged touch attack.

Pull (Ex): The Fidlia can choose to make a free combat maneuver check with a successful attack involving its large arm. If successful, this check pulls a creature closer. This ability only works on creatures of size Large or smaller. Creatures pulled in this way do not provoke attacks of opportunity and stop if the pull would move them into a solid object or creature.

Push (Ex): The Fidlia can choose to make a free combat maneuver check with an attack. If successful, this check pushes a creature directly away as with a bull rush, but the distance moved is set by this ability. This ability only works on creatures of size Large or smaller. Creatures pushed in this way do not provoke attacks of opportunity and stop if the push would move them into a solid object or creature.

Improved Grab (Ex): If the Fidlia hits with an attack involving its large arm, it deals normal damage and may attempt to start a grapple as a free action without provoking an attack of opportunity. Improved Grab works only against opponents of size Medium or smaller. The Fidlia has the option to conduct the grapple normally, or simply use its large arm to hold the opponent. If it chooses to do the latter, it takes either a –20 penalty (Lesser Fidlias) or a -10 penalty (Normal Fidlias) on its CMB check to make and maintain the grapple, but does not gain the grappled condition itself. Each successful grapple check it makes during successive rounds automatically deals damage equal to its large arm slam.

The Fidlia receives a +4 bonus on combat maneuver checks made to start and maintain a grapple.

Body Walking (Ex): Since the Fidlia walks on the same body part that it grabs with, any opponent held by the Fidlia’s Improved Grab receives either d6 damage (Lesser Fidlias) or d8 damage (Normal Fidlias) for every 5 ft step the Fidlia takes in addition to the normal damage sustained by being held by the Fidlia.

Boardmasters look sort-of like a mutant seahorse with arms, and their tails are composed of two smaller tails twisted together.

Boardmasters love strategy games and are always looking for worthy opponents to test their wits against. They like to make sure their opponents are trying their best to win, though, so they summon actual creatures and make their opponents fight against them. They then use their conjured boards to control the summoned creatures and have them make the most tactically sound moves they can think of.

Most Boardmasters are honorable and will only control summoned creatures, but some will cheat and manipulate the opposing pieces in order to win. Even the most ruthless Boardmasters never attack opponents directly, though that may be partially because they’re not good at direct attacks.

Boardmasters don’t seem to realize the ramifications or permanency of the actions taking place in their games.

Combat
Spell-Like Abilities (Sp): Constant—True Seeing; 3/day—Time Stop; Caster Level 20.

In addition to these, the Boardmaster can also create other spell-like effects by manipulating the pieces on the board. See Piece Manipulation for more info.

Board Conjuration (Su): The Boardmaster uses its tail to create and hold a game board representing the surrounding area. Pieces representing the creatures in this area will appear on the board and move according to the movement of the actual creatures. The pieces are always visible and appear as the creature’s true form. The board and its pieces mimic reality to the point that the Boardmaster doesn’t have to look at the actual area at all if it doesn’t want to. The Boardmaster is usually not in the area represented by the board, but doesn't have a piece representing itself on the board if it is. Dead creatures also have no pieces representing them on the board unless they're revived. While the board is out, nothing can enter or exit the area represented by the board.

Piece Manipulation (Su): The Boardmaster can affect what goes on in the area by messing with the pieces on the board. If the creature represented by the piece succeeds on their save, the piece goes back to how it was before the manipulation

Piece Manipulation Effect Table:
{table=head]Action|Spell Effect|DC|Use Limit

The mutissions look a bit like mechanical sea urchins with broken musical pipes on their back, pincer arms, and four stick-like legs. The design on the front looks like a mouth that’s been sewn shut.

The mutissions were made to keep libraries and other such buildings quiet. It will either cast Silence or move closer to those that are making too much noise. It has a ray attack, but it only uses this if it is attacked first. It could theoretically make melee attacks against opponents as well, but it has absolutely no reason to do so.

Whenever it silences an offender, it telepathically speaks a pre-programmed message telling them that they were too loud and have been silenced. It can speak this message in any language, including those of animals (though it doesn't often get to speak this message to animals).

Combat
Spell-Like Abilities (Sp): Constant—Zone of Silence; At Will—Silence (DC 16). Caster level 10. Save DCs are Cha-based

Ray (Ex): A mutission’s rays have a range of 40 feet. They are considered magical for the purposes of overcoming DR.

Telepathy (Su): A mutission can communicate telepathically with any creature within 100 feet that has an Intelligence score. The creature can respond to the mutission if it wishes—no common language is needed. However, the mutission will only ever listen to its creator or another designated master.

Imaginary Ones are physical representations of the imaginary number i. They tend to look a lot like ghosts, so they are often mistaken for undead.

Imaginary Ones speak Common and a number of other languages equal to their Int modifier.

Imaginary Ones rarely actually use their flight in any way other than hovering a few feet off the ground.

Imaginary Ones don’t like to get close to opponents, instead preferring to blast them with electricity and sonic spells from afar. It will attack with its eyes if necessary, though it runs away just as often.

Combat
Spell-Like Abilities (Lesser) (Sp): Constant—See Invisibility; At Will—Mage Hand, Shatter (DC 16), Sound Burst (DC 16); 3/day—Call Lightning (DC 17). The Lesser Imaginary One’s caster level is equal to its hit dice (normally 5). Save DCs are Int-based.

Spell-Like Abilities (Normal) (Sp): Constant—See Invisibility; At Will—Mage Hand, Shatter (DC 18), Sound Burst (DC 18), Call Lightning (DC 19), Shout (DC 20); 3/day—Call Lightning Storm (DC 21), Chain Lightning (DC 22), Sympathetic Vibration. The Normal Imaginary One’s caster level is equal to its hit dice. Save DCs are Int-based.

False Counterpart (Su): There is always a mirror image of the Imaginary One near it. It acts as if it were summoned by the Mirror Image spell, except it can never be destroyed through damage. The existence of this mirror image causes the chance of hitting the Imaginary One to drop by half. A weapon or creature that normally has a 50% miss chance against the Imaginary One now has a 75% miss chance against it, and a weapon or creature that normally has no miss chance against the Imaginary One gains a 50% miss chance against it.

All-Around Vision (Ex): The Imaginary One’s eyes float above its “body”, allowing it to look in any direction. This bestows a +4 racial bonus on Spot and Search checks, and opponents gain no flanking bonuses when attacking the Imaginary One.

Create Spawn (Su): Any humanoid or undead slain by an Imaginary One becomes an Imaginary One in 1d4 rounds. Spawn are under the command of the Imaginary One that created them and remain enslaved until its death. They do not possess any of the abilities they had in life.

Lesser Pi Elemental:

Calling them elementals may be confusing since you made them outsiders...


Small Outsider (Extraplanar)

Size + 1, Dex + 1, Natural + 3
"Armor Class: 15 (+1 size, +1 Dex, +3 Natural); touch 12; flat-footed 14"
Would be closer to the standard formatting. Remember that the first time a GM really LOOKS at the stat block may be just after he rolls them up as a random encounter, thus it really helps if everything is exactly where people expect it to be.


Base Attack/Grapple: +3/-1
Attack: Slam +4 (1d4 plus paralysis)
You need the work "melee" after each of your attack modifiers.


Full-Attack: Slam +4 (1d4 plus paralysis)/2 Tentacles -1 (1d4 plus paralysis)
Ditto


Space: 5 ft.; Reach 5 ft.
Special Attacks: Spell-Like Abilities, Paralysis (1d4 rounds, DC 13)

Oddly enough, paralysis isn't normally listed in that spot... not that it actually hurts anything I don't think.


Special Qualities: Fast Healing 3, Outsider Qualities
I think that should be "Outsider Traits", not "Outsider Qualities".


Saves: Fort +5 Ref +6 Will +8
If they don't get all good saves (despite being Outsiders), you probably need to give them a special quality to justify it...


Abilities: Str 10, Dex 12, Con 14, Int 16, Wis 16, Cha 10
Skills: Hide +11 (6 ranks, 4 size, 1 Dex), Concentration +8 (6 ranks, 2 Con), Knowledge (Planes) +9 (6 ranks, 3 Int), Spellcraft +9 (6 ranks, 3 Int), Spot +9 (6 ranks, 3 Wis), Search + 9 (6 ranks, 3 Wis), Sense Motive +9 (6 ranks, 3 Wis), Listen +9 (6 ranks, 3 Wis), Knowledge (Mathematics) +9 (6 ranks, 3 Int), Knowledge (Engineering) + 9 (6 ranks, 3 Int), Appraise +9 (6 ranks, 3 Int)
At least eventually, get ride of the notes you have in paratheses, they help for development, but clog things up for actual play.


Feats: Insightful Reflexes (http://realmshelps.dandello.net/cgi-bin/feats.pl?Insightful_Reflexes), Iron Will
Environment: Any?
Organization: Usually solitary or pairs (1 or 2)
Probably want to omit the word "usually".


Challenge Rating: CR 2-3
Put some question marks here to show you aren't sure.


Treasure: Standard
Alignment: Usually True Neutral
Advancement: HD 4-7. The Lesser Pi Elemental’s caster level is equal to its hit dice.
The sentence belongs elsewhere.


Level Adjustment: N/A

Lesser Pi Elementals are physical representations of that famous constant number that never ends (or at least doesn’t seem to). They’re still called elementals, even though they’re technically not associated with any element.

Lesser Pi Elementals speak Common and any 4 other languages.

Lesser Pi Elementals rarely actually use their flight in any way other than hovering a few feet off the ground.

Lesser Pi Elementals tend to fight defensively, preferring to be as far away as possible from opponents while still being close enough to use its Flaming Sphere. It only intentionally advances toward an opponent enough to use its physical attacks if the opponent seems like it has a weak will and there aren’t any other enemies nearby, though it may use them on other opponents that get too close.

Combat
Spell-Like Abilities (Sp): At Will—Flaming Sphere (DC 18). Caster level 3. Save DCs are Int-based.

Paralysis (Su): Whenever a lesser pi elemental attacks, it implants the full length of pi into the opponent’s mind. The opponent must make a Fortitude saving throw with a DC of 17 or it overwhelms their mind, effectively paralyzing them. Paralyzed creatures cannot move, speak, or take any physical actions. The creature is rooted to the spot, frozen and helpless. Unlike hold person and similar effects, a paralysis effect does not allow a new save each round. A winged creature flying in the air at the time that it is paralyzed cannot flap its wings and falls. A swimmer can't swim and may drown.

Seems like this should be a will save...



Pi Elementals tend to fight defensively, preferring to have at least one of its shield effects up before using any attack or trapping abilities. It only intentionally advances toward an opponent enough to use its physical attacks if the opponent seems like it has a weak will and there aren’t any other enemies nearby, though it may use them on other opponents that get too close. If it’s being overpowered, it may activate Invisibility Sphere and try to escape.

Giving the variations in tactics as effected by the variations in SLAs is a good thing, and I encourage you to keep it, even if you make the change-over to a table.



I will probably comment further later.

Thanks. In addition to finally adding those images, I dealt with most of the issues you brought up except for these two:


Calling them elementals may be confusing since you made them outsiders...

I'll rename the actually statted-out versions of them as soon as I can come up with a better name.

I thought they had all good saves already. Isn't the base good save for a 3 HD creature +3?

Yes, it is... but for the first Pi Elemental, 3 (base) + 2 (Con) + 2 (Great Fortitude) = 7 so you either got the save wrong or forgot the feat, and I made a mistaken assumption about which it was.

Now you just need to come up with parallel creatures for e and i.

e = lim(x->infinity) (1+(1/x))^x
i = sqrt(-1)



mutissions need a range for the telepathy, and a specification if shared language, or any language at all is a necessity (otherwise they can communicate with animals too). Also, what book is Zone of Silence From, or is it something you are going to stat out.

That Pi Elemental has Iron Will, not Great Fortitude. In fact, I don't think any of the Pi Elementals have Great Fortitude.

I might make an e or i creature, depending on if I can think of something for it to do.

Mutissions have a range of 100 ft. on their telepathy. Their Zone of Silence can be found on the SRD (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/spells/zoneOfSilence.htm). I went ahead and put the languages thing for its telepathy, though.
