Basic Breakdown of the Entomanothrope Template
No Swarms
No more than one size bigger or smaller than your race
+2 natural armor in all forms and/or if animal has better armor use that while in animal form or hybrid form.
You can pass the curse you have through natural attacks
You gain any poison based attack in hybrid form as your animal form would have
Alternate Form is basically -10 even numbers -11 odd numbers, to vermin STR,DEX,CON, add these numbers to your normal abilities when in hybrid or animal form. If the vermin you chose has wings you can fly at the speed of your slowest movement speed Dwarf 20 and wasp 40 means you fly at dwarf 20.
Vermin/Hybrid form has 5/silver DR
Darkvision 60ft
Entomanothropes have immunity to all mind-affecting effects (charms, compulsions, phantasms, patterns, and morale effects) in any form.
+2 wis -2 int
Skill bonus, after all this, some monsters have very high skill bonus. Which can cross over to your race form if it is not conditional.
And after all this you gain +2 Level adjustments
This is NOT a list of every single creature that fits within the vermin list, right now I have focused on those that have something to offer, or are very unique.
