Re: Immortalize your name in bees
Bee Bop a Lula : the ground under your feet spring thousand of itching darts , you can't do nothing except suffer the pain of the stings, unaware people think you entered into dancing frenzy.
Beestie Boys : you start singing like a rapper , with lot of nonsense rhymes, people around you affected by a sonic stunning effect.
beet it : your skin turns gray and you look like a skinny zombie with a hat. undeads cannot sense you. Liches and vampires even laugh at you and resume their tasks.
mister Been : your victims loose 95% of their INT , CHA and Dex for 2 rounds and act like idiots.

Re: Immortalize your name in bees
Bee Mine
Enchantment (Charm) [Mind-Affecting]
Level: Brd 6, Trickery 8, Sor/Wiz 8
Components: V, S, M
Casting Time: 1 minute
Range: 0 ft.; see text
Target: One creature; see text
Duration: See text
Saving Throw: Will partial; see text
Spell Resistance: No
You stab the bee stinger material component into a willing subject before placing it somewhere in your space (a bee stinger is subject to gravity, though other spells may be cast on it to levitate it, for example). You then speak aloud the conditions to trigger the bee mine.
Conditions for triggering the bee mine include: come within a predetermined radius of no more than 400 feet without speaking a password; come within a predetermined radius of no more than 400 feet; a verbal command (set by the caster and triggered by whoever speaks it); a mental command (again, set by the caster and triggered by whoever forcefully gives the command); enter the bee mine's space; speak to the willing subject of the spell while within a predetermined radius of no more than 400 feet; look at the willing subject of the spell while they are within a predetermined radius of no more than 400 feet; touch the willing subject of the spell while they are within a predetermined radius of no more than 400 feet; attack the willing subject of the spell while they are within a predetermined radius of no more than 400 feet. You may specify multiple trigger conditions as long as they do not conflict with each other.
A number of creatures equal to your caster level may be specified to never trigger the bee mine even if they meet its trigger conditions. The specified creatures need not be present upon casting the spell, but they must be identified aloud (though not necessarily by name).
A bee mine remains in place indefinitely or until triggered, at which point the stinger will embed itself into the first creature other than the willing subject of the spell to trigger it. If multiple creatures trigger the bee mine at the same time, the bee mine attempts to stab the closest target. If all creatures triggering the mine are equidistant to the bee mine, it randomly determines which to target (for five equidistant creatures triggering the bee mine at the same time, for example, use a d6, where a result of 6 means roll again).
Upon embedding itself into a creature, the bee mine injects pheromones from the willing subject of the spell, immediately changing the creature's attitude toward the willing subject to fanatic on a failed save, regardless of the creature's previous attitude. While the willing subject technically gains no direct control over the target's mind, the target can be easily and readily directed as those of fanatic status can be. Unlike the fanatic attitude's normal duration, this spell's effect is permanent. Even on a successful Will save, the target's attitude toward the willing subject still becomes fanatic for 1 round, after which point its attitude returns to normal and it acts normally. While it may be difficult to lower the target's attitude toward the willing subject, it is possible. Continuous maltreatment or neglect may lower the target's attitude eventually, though it should take quite some time.
Immunity to mind-affecting spells and effects will prevent the bee mine from working, but until the stinger is removed (via dispel magic, break enchantment, or a DC 30 Heal check that takes 10 minutes to complete), the target is still subject to the bee mine's effects should its mind-affecting immunity falter (it makes its Will save as soon as its immunity drops). Once a bee mine has worked its magic, there is no way to reverse its effects except through the wish or miracle spells or divine intervention.
Upon the target's death, its default attitude toward the willing subject becomes indifferent. Even if the target is brought back from death, its attitude remains indifferent until otherwise influenced again.

You can use my honey dragon if you like. It looks like a giant bee. Doh and the amber bee too. See links in my signature.

Re: Immortalize your name in bees
Wannabee Template
Wannabees come from a myriad of backgrounds, but they have one thing in common—they want the power of bees. To aid in that endeavor, they tend to dress in garish black and yellow costumes and drone incessantly about the importance of bees.
CREATING A WANNABEE
Wannabee is an acquired template that can be applied to any Fey, Giant, Humanoid, and Monstrous Humanoid that has an intelligence less than 10.
Size and Type: As base creature.
Speed: If they do not have a flight speed, wannabees gain a set of undersized translucent wings and can fly at double their land speed (minimum 10 feet) with a maneuverability of Clumsy.
Natural Armor: Wannabees gain +1 Natural Armor.
Special Attack: Wannabees gain the following.
If I Bee Waspish (with apologies to William Shakespeare) (Ex): Wannabees gain a secondary stinger attack that deals 1d4 points of damage plus ½ Strength modifier (minimum 1). Once the stinger has been used, it takes 1 week to grow back. A stingerless wannabee takes a -2 morale penalty to attack rolls until its stinger grows back.
Best Beeware My Sting (with further apologies to William Shakespeare) (Su): Despite their diminished mental capacity, wannabees can deliver barbs so sharp, they can cut an opponent to the quick. By merely humming, a wannabee can cause all opponents within 30 feet that can hear it to take a -4 penalty to all rolls. A successful Fortitude save (DC 10 + ½ the wannabee’s HD + wannabee’s charisma modifier) reduces the penalty to -2.
Skills: Wannabees gain Profession (beekeeper) as a class skill. This gives them a +2 Insight bonus on all rolls when dealing with a swarm of bees, giant bees, giant wasps, and abeils.
Special Qualities: Wannabees gain the following.
Honey Dependent (Ex): Each wannabee is mystically bound to a single pot of honey and must never stray more than 300 yards from it. Any who do become ill and die within 4d6 hours. A wannabee’s pot of honey does not radiate magic. A pot of honey has 3 hit points and hardness 2. A broken honey pot is easily repaired with a mending spell or with sovereign glue.
Challenge Rating: Same as base creature +1
Level Adjustment: Same as base creature +1

Re: Immortalize your name in bees
Nope, after all they're just wannabees. They are neither swarms nor giant vermin. They don't die when they use their stinger either. However, evil wannabes could coat their stinger in poison.

Re: Immortalize your name in bees
Going with some ideas from Terraria:
Beenade - a throwable weapon resulting in a swarm of bees being released in the area it hits.
The Bee's Knees - a bow that turns arrows into a group of bees that home in on nearby enemies.
Bee Keeper - a sword that releases bees when hitting an enemy.
Sweetheart Necklace - a necklace looking like a honey-covered heart that releases bees when the wearer is struck.
Hive Pack - a special backpack that increases the power of your bees.
And of course a monster called an Abeemination.

Re: Immortalize your name in bees
Hyperbobee (Lesser, Greater Variants?) generic buff, stuff of tall tales, maybe a bonus to a single skill check instead
"I swear man he literally jumped 50 feet"
"You mean figuratively"
"No, he seriously jumped 50 feet"
Beelong: Treated as a long creature (or maybe a quadruped, better bonuses)
Alternately: Cast it to make something else last longer?
Feat: Feeling of Beelonging: Whenever a creature within 10' would gain a competence bonus to a check, you gain it also
eh, would have to check for balance
Beenign: Remove status effects?
Befogged: Obscuring Mist of PAIN!
Beeheaded: You gain antenna and 360 vision?
Beefoul: Poison stuff with honey

Re: Immortalize your name in bees
I plan for update to the Minmax thread this week. Got the spells that aren't homebrew finally listed in Bee Magic. I hope to finish the first round of bee monsters/spells, and at some point add the Demiplane of Beees.

I dunno about that costing 1000 XP. Time Stop doesn't cost that much XP, and oh hey that could be cast at the end of a time stop.

Re: Immortalize your name in bees
Change "Beewere's are bees..." to Beeweres. The former uses the apostrophe in posessive, when it is wanted for plural. Use "Beeweres" any time you use the name in plural (like you did in the hive mind entry).
Under Combat, change to: "Combat: Beeweres generally try to..."
Edit: CR seems to be about 3 or so. I'd up their HD, as that curse can be nasty for low-levels and would warrant a good harasser-like monster.
Natural weapon has no listed damage. Cant deliver injury poison without damage.
What is the ability score used for the poison DC? Also, 10 is a decent DC but easily beatable/ removable. I'd make it a natural poison with a DC 12 or so.Last edited by ~Corvus~; 2015-08-05 at 06:32 PM.

Re: Immortalize your name in bees
Beewere's melee attack is off. BAB +1, size modifier +8, weapon finesse uses Dex +5 = + 14 not +8.
Beethrope is just a werebee isn't it? CR +2, LA +2 looks about right. Can they make honey? What about royal jelly and beeswax?
Love what you're doing with Beerly Beeloved. Can you add honey mead addiction?
Rules for inebriation are pretty simple; See Cityscape pg. 44.
A PC can safely consume a number of drinks per hour (a "drink" counts as a tankard of ale, a glass of wine or a shot of the hard stuff) equal to one-half his Constitution score. One drink's effects wear off in an hour. Whenever a character imbibes more than that limit, he must attempt a Constitution check. The DC starts at 15 and increases by 1 point per additional drink. PCs with saving throw bonuses against poison (such as dwarves) can apply them to this Constitution check.
Each failed Constitution check imposes a -1 penalty to Dexterity and Wisdom (but does not actually reduce those ability scores) and a cumulative -1 penalty on Constitution checks to avoid further inebriation. A character's effective Dexterity and Wisdom can't fall below 1 due to inebriation. The character's actual Constitution score (and hit points) remains unchanged. A character passes out when the penalty on Constitution checks equals his Constitution score. He remains unconscious for 2d4 hours and is fatigued when he awakens but the temporary penalties end.Last edited by Debihuman; 2015-08-06 at 07:36 AM.

The Beewere's do honey and such, though the beecanthropes may assist. Mostly Beecanthropes are their largely unnoticed pawns in the human world.
