Ok so I wanted to brew up a template for my players to run into. I will go ahead and post the details first, and give the reasoning behind the idea afterward.
Working title - Hunted The hunted template can be applied to any Animal, Magical Beast, Vermin, or Lycanthrope.
Size and type - For Animals, Magical Beasts, or Vermin: advance one size class larger with all appropriate ability score changes. Lycanthropes in their animal form grow one size class with the appropriate ability score changes, but immediate go back to there normal size when they change to hybrid or humanoid form.
BAB and Saves are unchanged.
All racial HD become d12s
I'm thinking a natural armor bonus I'm not sure how much though
Special Qualities (these are things I'm unsure about.)
DR equal to racial HD/natural materials. Stone, wood, bone, etc. Natural weapons always pierce this DR, except for the natural weapons of unnatural creatures such as constructs or undead do not, even if they are an appropriate material. Weapons of the appropriate material wielded by unnatural creatures are only partially effective. (treat the creatures DR as 1/2 its normal value rounded down)
Spell/Power Resistance equal to racial HD plus 5. This resistance does not protect the base creature from the special abilities of magical beasts. This exception does not apply to abilities granted to creature by spells or powers such as Bestow Spell.
LA- unsure.
The idea is that these creature are pets of the God of The Hunt. I really like the DR, but I'm not quite sure how it would work out.
