hello, I'm new here and not altogether sure I have the right section for the question. so I'm going to ask all the same :smallbiggrin:
I'm putting a campaign world together and I ran into this problem with lycans and vampires; they're templates. as I understand it a character who gets turned by either of these will go threw a waiting period of a few days then hulk out with effective levels that don't even give HD. that may work for books, or movies, or even NPCs but it messes with the party progression. I would greatly prefer it if the players could take monster levels but the rules from savage species wouldn't work here (I think).
so does anyone have advice on turning these templates into classes?
