What does the templatiest ECL0 creature look like?

[Flickerdart]

So far I've been able to assemble this ridiculous thing without resorting to LA buyoff:

Wild Amphibious Arctic Dragonborn Magic-blooded Primordial Unseelie Half-Giant (no levels in racial class).
Type: Fey (Aquatic, Dragonblood)
Speed: 30ft, Swim 15ft, Fly 60ft
Ability scores: -4 STR -4 DEX +2 CON +2 INT -2 WIS +4 CHA
Special qualities: Darkvision 60ft, breath weapon, invisibility at will, amphibious

Is there anything else we can slap on? I know of the following:
Desert and Aquatic (DrMag 306): Not sure about this, but I think they are mutually exclusive with Arctic
Proto-creature (Bestiary of Krynn): Dragonlance, and I don't have the book so I can't confirm stats
Necropolitan: Taking this until you have enough HD will kill you, and we don't want to assume having any HD


Bonus points: What does this creature look like? With wild+amphibious+arctic I am imagining some sort of penguin situation. A giant humanoid penguin with scaly wings that breathes fire.

The templatiest creature? That's easy.

Incarnate Construct Dustform Incarnate Construct Dustform Incarnate Construct Dustform Incarnate Construct Dustform [...] Incarnate Construct Dustform Warforged. Number of templates: NI.

And to further enhance WAADMbPUHG, you could hire a bard to use Inspire Greatness on you, then undergo the necropolitian ritual. It's cheese, but probably works.

Your number of templates is 2. :smallsmile:

I'm not convinced it does - Inspire Greatness doesn't add XP, so you probably still die.

Oh, number of different templates. At least Dustform followed by Incarnate Construct can still be applied to the WAADMbPUHG.

Proto-creature from Bestiary of Krynn is +4/+0/+2/-2/+0/-4 and has a Natural Armour of 3. Each speed over 40 goes down by 10, and your fly drops a maneuverability.

The dragmag ones aren't unique - or at least, nothing in the text says they are.

Isn't half-giant an LA+1 race? Or did you find a half-giant template that's +0?

Interesting thought. Incarnate Construct produces a Giant if the base construct was Large, doesn't it? So we might be able to swap out the base Half-Giant for Water Orc or something...

No special requirements on proto-creature, or RHD?

I'm wary of letting a creature hail from a Desert and Aquatic environment. :smalltongue:

There is a racial class in CPsi. You are not obligated to take the level.

[Jormengand]

No. If you want rage, that's RHD based, but the template doesn't give you any RHD, only rage based on the ones you already had.

Ah.


...Huh. What a bizarre and confusing racial class system. Do any other books use this system? All the others I'm familiar with instead do it like Savage Species does.

[ATHATH]

If a creature comes from an area that has an ever-shifting environment, he could have the Arctic, Aquatic, and Desert templates.

Just wanted to point out that taking this at any HD will kill you. :smallbiggrin:

Complete Psionic strikes again!
