My GM has allowed me to port the spells Minor Servitor (SS), Awaken Sand (Sa), and Create Crawling Claw (MoF, LEoF) from to our Pathfinder game.
The Minor Servitor Spell will animate by volume as is written instead.
Create Crawling Claw will make one Lost Empires of Faerun Crawling Claw swarm per casting.
I know how to optimize these critters for a 3.x game. I had loads of fun doing so back in the day. But I'm a little lost on getting the most bang for my buck in the PF framework.
For example, 3.x has a far wider variety of special materials to animate with Minor Servitor, such as Aurorum and Thinaun Steel.
Awaken Sand is great with Bkack Sand and Shapesand, both missing in PF.
And the last time I used it Create Crawling Claw just made piles and piles of individual animated hands.
I'd love a way to let the Minor Servitors and Awakened Sands use spells. In 3.x I used Glyph Seals from Magic Item Compendium.
Giving the Crawling Claw swarms intelligence would be great too. In 3.x I used the Sacred Guardian template from Bestiary of Krynn Revised.
In PF the intelligence granting bioconstruct mod gets shut down with just Detect Thoughts (which as a doppelganger I have constantly active :smallannoyed:).
For the record I'm only allowed to convert 3.x spells at +1 spell level by custom researching them.
Ideas and suggestion welcome, and thanks to anyone mad enough to help with this. :smallbiggrin:
