did you mean Death Blow ?

These look like fun Creature/NPCs :slight_smile:

4

Sure did… just gonna go fix that now.

6

Let me know if the format works or if it’s not clear enough.

7

The Enfield only has Movement 4, meaning it couldn’t normally invoke Flight.
As i presume it can’t actually fly freely (the ability’s name is Glide after all), I suggest lowering the PL to 3 or 4 and ruling each turn the Creature must move at least 5 ft downwards, can otherwise maneuver 10 ft in any direction and takes no falling damage when landing.

These look super good! Thanks for sharing!

8

That was a typo, he does have 5. Even though the idea is that the Enfield can’t fly upward, i try my best not to add new game mechanics if the game has something close enough. That way a GM can just look at it and know what the creature is capable of.
Flying 10’ is such a small distance that a GM probably wont use this unless he/she wants the Enfield to jump far or fall safely.

9

Am i doing something wrong here? i see a lot of other NPCs and creatures with way lower stats than mine, i’m just using the same point buy as a character are others going by a different value? with that being said even if they are, i still don’t see consistency with THAT either, some people make it close, but a few points off, others make it like half the amount of points… idk.

10

If you scroll down HERE there are stats for NPC’s and monster by level. these are mostly suggestions but work well as challenges by lvl.

Is it ok if I just copy and paste this into a google document?

12

if your talking about the NPC page I dont think they will care as long as you are not trying to profit from it. If you are talking about this thread i dont care.

13

I was talking about the npcs I want them in a google doc for easy access while I am DMing later this week.

14

the ones on this thread? yeah sure. There’s a wiki for open legend that has some creatures to use too, some of which were made by me.
