[4E] DL Draconians (PEACH)

[RTGoodman]

I'm about to start DMing at least two 4E Dragonlance campaign, so I of course needed some Draconians. (By the way, if you're playing in my PbP Dragonlance game, don't read these. :smallwink:) I based these guys off info from the 1987 AD&D Dragonlance Adventures sourcebook by Weis & Hickman (since I didn't have the 3.x DLCS handy), so they might not be exact, but I think they're close enough.

Since I should be using them soon (assuming the campaigns don't fall apart before they even begin), I'd appreciate it if folks could just take a look over 'em before I throw them at PCs.

the same.) Secondary attack: +9 vs. Reflex; 2d8 + 4

Murderous Disguise ♦ Illusion
When a Sivak draconian kills a foe, it takes on that foe’s
guise and voice. It can change back to its normal appearance
as a move action, but thereafter must slay a foe to use
this ability again. When it interacts with foes while in the
guise of its victim, the Sivak makes an attack (+9 vs. Will).
If the attack succeeds, it has combat advantage against
that foe until it makes an attack against the target or any
of the target’s allies within line of sight.

Death Throes (immediate reaction; when reduced
to 0 hp) ♦ Illusion
When killed, a Sivak draconian takes on the guise of its
killer. This disguise remains for 3 days, after which time
the whole body dissolves into black soot.

So there they are. Anything you think should be changed?

[chronoplasm]

Whats the point of Death Throes on that last one?

[Elana]

The Sivak can take the shape of everyone it kills.

So if you see someone and his dead body, you aren't immediatly aware if that is the Sivak posing as a dead guy, or if it's the real person, standing next to a Sivak it just killed

[RTGoodman]

What ^she said.

Also, note that it works both ways - if the Sivak kills a Human Guard, for instance, it turns into the guard, leaving one live Guard and one dead Guard. If the guard kills the Sivak, it still leaves one dead Guard and one live Guard. In either case, it could be confusing and lead to interesting interactions with NPCs (or, of course, PCs, should one be killed).

[RTGoodman]

So... anyone else want to take a look and tell me that these suck? Or assuage my fears that they won't destroy any party I throw 'em against?

[Draco Dracul]

Looks cool.

[RTGoodman]

Made a few edits. Any other comments, questions, etc.? If not, I guess they're good to use, and I'll be throwing 'em against parties soon.
