    Perhaps something less complex for now. Like Dire critters or something. The templates are gonna be mind benders for me to do.

    Heh. Something allong the lines of dire critters would be nice...
    so you took what they did to make the dire wolf/ape/rat, ect., and made hundreds of other creatures the same way.
    Now take what they did with the cranium rat and apply it to all the other critters.
    Cranium Polar Bear, anyone? Or how abouts cranium chameleon?

    And then once you've made all the cranium creatures you can take, Dire Cranium Elephant. Or, just to be cruel, Dire Cranium Humming-Gator!

    "Bert?"

    "Yeah Abner?"

    "I quit. Screw this."

    "Just exhale slowly Abner."

    Unlike many magical follow ups to abominations like the Owlbear, the Zebrocerous actually worked. It's tough, it's quick, and it's mean. It was also manageable enough to keep as a guard beast. They're quite popular with warm weather dwelling Warlords, madmen, and freaks of all kinds.

    RAAAAAHHH! (Su): When making a Charge Attack the Zebrocerous does 4d8+24. All attacks made against it that round have a 50% miss chance due to it's outline breaking up.

    Unusually Good at Hiding (Su): Even at rest Zebrocerous are hard to hit from range. They have a +2 Deflection Bonus to AC against ranged attacks, and get a +2 Racial Bonus on Saving Throws if the ranged attack is magical. They also get a +10 Racial Bonus to Hide Checks. Which is creepy because they aren't very quiet...

    Combat: Zebrocerous tend to do the usual Rhino thing: charge, repeatedly gore, if maybe opponent falls down step on him a lot.

    Is the Zebrocerous going to be much different from a normal rhinoceros? Seems like they would be identical, just maybe a bonus to hide.

    "Bert...didn't we just do this?"

    After his success with the Zebrocerous, a certain nameless mage wanted something a little more traveling. Something not limited to the Plains. Mostly because he was fleeing the local grasslands for a swamp because it was a hell of a lot more defensible. You can only be surprised by adventurers so many times before you think "Maybe my current location isn't ideal".

    Improved Grab (Ex): If the Crocerocerous successfully hits with it's Bite attack, it may immediately make a Grapple Check as a Free Action without provoking an Attack of Opportunity. If it is successful, it may do bite damage. If it Pins the opponent it can use it's Shred ability.

    Shred (Ex): Each round that it successfully maintains a pin, the Croconocerous deals 4d8+36 damage to its victim

    Combat: The Crocerocerous usually charges, goes for the bite, and begins ripping it's opponent a new one.

    Whoo hoo! Congrats on the new job! I hope you get plenty of de-stressing now. I think we can wait a week for your updates :-)

    I think the crococerus should have Improved Critical (Bite) as a feat and possible even a Swallow Whole ability for Small or smaller creatures at least.

    P.E.A.C.H. Please Evaluate And Critique Honestly. Being nicer and kinder doesn't hurt either. Note I generally only critique 3.5 and Pathfinder material.
    Please, please, please when using non-core material, cite to the books. There are too many books to wade through to find the one with the feat, special ability or spell you use.

    Hey, Bhu. I am in the middle of posting a campaign setting over on Competitor Games, and I was wondering if I could, with your permission, reference some of your material from the first Critters thread and provide links to it.

    Thanks. You're semi-undead demonic dinosaurs were cool, though they might need a little bit of minor refluffing to fit the campaign (but not too much, the fluff is what made me like them).

    I was thinking of going for some sort of trip or knockdown and rend attack.

    "Bert...I do not like how that thing is looking at us..."

    In one of the most bizarre incidents of magical hybridization on record, the great wizard Sandaman decided that he needed some magical guardians, but all he had to work with were the massive llama herds surrounding his mountains, and the occasional flock of birds. So he said to hell with it and went for broke. And thus the Llamabirds were born. He had still had huge herds for food and fur to make money while he was involved with higher pursuits, and no one but the most magical of opponents was willing to wade through the Llamabirds.

    PTOOEY! (ex): A Llamabird has can blind an opponent with it's spittle for 1d4 rounds if they fail a DC 15 Reflex Save (Save DC is Constitution Based). This has a range of 30', is a Standard Action, and can be done a number of times per day equal to their Constitution Modifier.

    Combat: Llamabirds will tend to watch potential enemies closely while making no move against them, and then hock a loogie into their eyes to blind them before charging. Birds are mean, deceptive critters.
