Re: Critters II!
Okay I'm gonna have to split up the Epic Critter Template by type to make it easier on me. Initial abilities will just be based on the monsters in the MMI, and I can modify over time.
Epic Aberration
This is an Acquired Template which can be applied to any Aberration whose Hit Dice are 21 or higher. For purposes of this Template it is assumed no Aberration has a maximum Hit Dice in it's Advancement scheme. Please remember to adjust skills, BAB, Feats, Saves, CR etc before applying this template if Hit Dice increase from the Base Creature.
Size and Type: Normally unchanged, but see Special Qualities below.
Hit Dice: Unchanged.
Speed: All Movement types double their base Speed, and if the Aberration has Flight, the Maneuverability increases by one class (i.e. from Poor to Average, or Average to Good, etc.). Also it may change on the options chosen below.
Armor Class: Double any Armor Class Bonuses not gained via Feat or based off of a Stat Bonus (such as Dexterity). Also it may change on the options chosen below.
Attacks: Normally unchanged, but see Special Attacks.
Damage: Normally unchanged, but see Special Attacks.
Special Attacks: Retains all Special Attacks of the Base Creature, and gains the following, and gains the following changes to Special Attacks it may already have:
Casting/Manifesting: If the Base Creature can cast Spells, manifest Psionic powers or use Spell-Like, Psi-Like, or Supernatural Abilities it's caster or Manifester Level is now equal to it's Hit Dice or CR whichever is higher. The Save DC's now get a +4 Racial Bonus. If the Base Creature can Manifest Powers or Cast Spells as a PC class of a specific Level, this means they now cast/manifest as a member of that class equal to their Hit Dice or CR. Abilities that can be used a limited number of times per day can be used an extra 3 times per day each.
Poison: If the Poisons normal effect is Ability damage, change Initial damage to 2d6 Constitution and Secondary damage to Death.
Rays: Increase maximum Range to 240 ft.
Lines: Increase Range to 160 ft.
Cones: Increase Range to 80 ft.
Radius: Increase Radius to 60 ft.
Gaze Attack: The base range doubles.
Improved Grab: You may now use this ability on creatures your own Size class or smaller.
Disease: The Save DC for diseases increases to 10 plus half HD plus Constitution Modifier.
Breath Weapon: Breath Weapons may now be used every other round.
It also gains x choices from the following list:
Special Qualities: Retains all Special Qualities of the Base Creature, and gains the following changes to Special Qualities it may already have:
Darkvision, See in Darkness, or Low Light Vision: If the Base Creature has any of these abilities, it can now see perfectly well in normal or magical darkness.
Blindsight: Double the range.
Energy Resistance: Double the base number. For example if the Base Creature has Energy Resistance 10, it now has 20. If this would raise the Resistance to 60 or more, it now has immunity instead.
Damage Reduction: DR doubles, and DR/Magic becomes DR/Epic. For example DR 5/Magic becomes DR 10/Epics. If the DR is a particular Alignment or substance it now becomes DR/(substance or alignment) and Epic. For example Silver and Epic for Werewolves.
Spell Resistance: Spell Resistance increases to 15 + CR, unless what it already has is already higher.
Scent: The Base Creature gains Improved Scent and Uncanny Scent as Bonus Feats.
Telepathy: The base Creatures range triples.
Fast Healing or Regeneration: Double the Base Creatures number. If it had Fast Healing or Regeneration 5 it now has 10.
It also gains x choices from the following list:
Saves: Will have to possibly be recalculated due to Ability changes, or what you choose from Special Qualities.
Abilities: If the base creature has any Special Attacks (or can cast spells) with a Save DC, any Attribute the Save DC's are based on increase by +10. If it has an attack based on Strength (such as Improved Grab) that ability Score increases by +10 as well. Also see Special Qualities.
Skills: Unchanged, but see Special Qualities.
Feats: Normally unchanged, but see Special Qualities.
Environment: Any
Organization: Usually Solitary or Unique
Challenge Rating:
Treasure: Triple Normal.
Alignment: Unchanged normally, but remove 'always' and replace with 'usually'. Epic Aberrations are unique enough not to have to be limited to the usual Alignments of their species.
Advancement: By Hit Dice or by Character Class.
Level Adjustment: <>

'Whats that noi...AAAAAAHHHH!"
Dorf the Wildly Incompetent needed some guardians, but he had such a bad rep no one wanted to work for him. So he made some by using the spells originally used to create Owlbears to make the first Hummingators. He judged them a failure due to their size. They ate him in his sleep. Subsequently they've infested the marshes.
Distraction (Ex): Any living creature vulnerable to a swarms damage that begins it's turn with a swarm in it's square is Nauseated for 1 round unless it makes a DC 15 Fortitude Save. Spellcasting or concentrating on spells within the area of a swarm requires a Concentration Check (DC is 20 for skills, 20 + Spell Level for spellcasting).
Grip (Ex): Leaving the area of a Hummingator swarm requires a DC 20 Strength Check.
Combat: Hummingator swarms tend to fly in, grab hold, and munch away crazily. They aren't tactical.
Hummingator
Medium Aberration
Hit Dice: 3d8+6 (19 hp)
Initiative: +2
Speed: 10 ft. (2 squares), Fly 60 ft. (Good)
Armor Class: 16 (+2 Dex, +4 Natural), touch 12, flat-footed 14
Base Attack/Grapple: +2/+6

Full Attack: Bite +6 melee (1d6+6)
Space/Reach: 5 ft./5 ft.
Special Attacks: Improved Grab
Special Qualities: Dark Vision 60'
Saves: Fort +3, Ref +3, Will +5
Abilities: Str 18, Dex 14, Con 15, Int 2, Wis 14, Cha 6
Skills: Hide +4, Listen +4, Spot +4
Feats: Fly-by Attack, Hover
Environment: Warm Marsh
Organization: Solitary or Flock (3-6)
Challenge Rating: 2
Treasure: None
Alignment: Always Neutral
Advancement: 4-6 HD (Medium)
Level Adjustment: ---
"Swamp assignments always suck. Always. Oh look, it's a flying reptile. How unlikely."
Simon the Moderately incompetent inherited his Uncle Dorf's notes, and realized his relative had forgotten to carry the 2 in his math. He made more respectable sized Hummingators, which promptly devoured him in his sleep. The current holders of the notes used them to start a cooking fire, so perhaps the world need not worry about false Dragons being made.
Improved Grab (Ex): If a Hummingator successfully attacks with it's Bite, it can immediately make a Grapple Check as a Free Action without provoking an Attack of Opportunity. If successful it does it's Bite damage with a successful Grapple Check.
Combat: Hummingators tend to nest in trees hiding till likely prey comes by, at which point they make a few fly-by's to soften it up before grabbing and mauling it.Last edited by Bhu; 2010-10-25 at 10:33 PM.

Re: Critters II!
I'd personally like two versions, one hummingbird sized and one alligator sized. If it's not too much trouble of course.

Re: Critters II!
Okay it should become obvious the various Epic templates will be similar, with the Special Attacks/Qualities having different options (and a few different tweaks here and there). As soon as I have all the skeleton templates up I can begin editing in options.
