    Default Re: Alternate SNA List?

    When I made that guide, I vetted every 3.5 (and a few 3.0) books for evil outsiders, or evil extraplanar creatures, or creatures native to an evil plane. You can do something similar with SNA. Thematically, it should only summon animals, plants, elementals, the occasional fey or magical beast, and possibly vermin. It's a wide range, but I recommend checking out It's Cold Outside and It's Hot Outside (It's Wet Outside is really only useful if you're doing an aquatic campaign) for more animals.

    Taking the MMIII, for example, appropriate additions to the SNA list would be the Avalancher (SNA IV), the Bearhound (SNA VII), a Bloodstriker Dinosaur (SNA V), a Fleshraker Dinosaur (SNA II, and a very very good choice), a Swindlespitter Dinosaur (SNA I), the Dragon Eel (SNA IX, and dragon type), a Dread Blossom Swam (SNA V), Storm Elementals (varying levels, and RAW-legal for you to summon!), Ironclad Mauler (SNA VIII, borderline appropriate but still bear cavalry), Mastodon (SNA VIII), Night Twist (SNA IX), Redcap (SNA II for young ones, SNA VII for elders, only appropriate for evil druids), Sea Tiger (SNA V), Splinterwaif (SNA III), Thorn (SNA IV), Topiary Guardians (SNA III the boar, VI for the lion, and IX for the triceratops), or the Wood Woad (SNA IV).

    For you, the Avalancher and the Ironclad Mauler would be great thematically.

    Other books available on request.
